Rain, Rain go away....

It has been raining for two weeks. I thought this was called the sunshine state. Everything is soggy and completely saturated with water. Including the ground. The chicken coop has turned into a giant mud pit better suited for pigs than chickens. The coop itself is waterlogged the wood is all buckling and I can't latch the door without a great deal of effort. The chickens don't seem to mind, although they do not look their best. Yesterday we had a raccoon climb into the coop in broad daylight. A very unusual event and it usually means certain death for one of the feathered babies. It did not bother the chickens though, just happily ate the chicken feed of the ground until I ran screaming and waving a big stick at it. It ran off under the shed, which being made of metal made a huge noise when I banged on it with the big stick I was brandishing. You see, this is why I make a very bad Buddhist and I am doomed to never reach inner peace. I wanted to get that raccoon just for mearly

Did you miss me?

I keep saying that I am going to blog. I keep promising myself I will get it done tomorrow, but alas, it always gets put off. Tossed to the bottom of the to do list. I will do better. I promise to update you on the chickens this week. It's been along time since I posted pictures and they have gotten so much bigger and cuter! I am getting ready for a big night a week from Friday. Working my little fingers to the bone making jewelry. Why? I am going to be showing at the "Pretty in the City" event for the Susan G. Komen fundraiser. Lots of women, lots of wine, and lots of girlie stuff like jewelry and spa products. It should be a great time, but it lasts way past my bed time! I am sure I will need a few days to recoop and so will my DH. I am taking him along to help me, 'cause you know he is the talker in the family. If you are near West Palm on May 15 th come say "hi" and support a great cause. : http://sunny1043.com/Pretty-In-The-City/2043940 The above pi
