Chickens ~ Dude Maggs Bruiser ~ Chocolate/Almonds Day


Good 53º clear sunny morning. Supposed to get close to 100º today. Ugh.     

Yesterday I "fixed" my rainbird sprinkler. It was leaking around the, I-don't-know-what-you-call-it, where the hose attaches and that part attaches to the other thing....... anyway, I put silicone around it. Let it dry all day so will try it out today....

 
My hairdresser/friend Leah got some new chickens...
She posted their picture on FB and said they, as of yet, don't have names... so I suggested the following:

Audrey Henburn
Sofia Laurhen
Laying Godiva

Mary Poopins
Feather Locklear
Maid Marihen
Elizachick Taylor
Henifer Aniston

 

Here is a great video that will be helpful to everyone!

So, yesterday morning early before it got hot we took Dude on his run.... Maggie and I rode.... (I know...lazy!)
Coming back the Bruise greeted us.
He jumped up on the seat. Ahhhh.... yes, sniffing dog and one peeing dog!
Then he jumped in the bed..... but as soon as we moved, he was GONE!

Oh what a great tip re the can opener. That video reminded me of me! Especially when I am trying to get my Fosamax out of that little bubble thingie! GRRRR WHY make them so hard to remove when only OLD people take that med?? No kids in the house when you are that age!!

What a smart girl you are to fix your sprinkler! Kudos! Hope it works!

Did you really think up all those chicken names? Sooo funny and brilliant too!

I too love your Uncle Sam (Sue) photo!!

I haven' tried the canopener yet, but will do next time .... Hope the sprinkler works... my plumber was just here and I asked him, he said he didn't know if it would work or not. Had help with the chicken names. They are funny!!! xo
