Somewhere around 10 this morning I discovered that today was March!!!
I'm not ready for March!
And yet, here it is.
So today on March 1 of 2019, I called the credit union about a charge we hadn't made that appeared on our credit card. At their request, filed a report with the police department. Paid bills. Went to pick up a part at the hardware store that wasn't what we needed. Tried to explain exactly what we were looking for, and when the owner found out we were attempting to repair Bobby's shower chair, he told us to bring it in. So we did, and he had the old wheel out and the new one in less than five minutes!! When I told him I had been trying off and on for several days to get the old caster out, he winked and said "It helps when you have the right tools." And so it does. So we've had the highs and the lows for the day, and it's only half over.
Biddies are slowly adjusting to the hen house. They love the space and about half of them have now ventured out of it into the pen. They love having space to run in the house, though with the drop in temps they're huddling under the heat lamp quite a bit. I think we might run the back-up lamp out there as well the first of next week as the temps are supposed to go extremely low during the night. Two of them are starting to figure out that I'm the creature that gives them food and water and am not a terrible monster. These don't appear to be the brightest birds we've ever had, but that may change as time goes on.
Three of the 4 goldfish have died. Yesterday I was afraid the last one wouldn't make it either, but today it is swimming all over the place and acting like a normal fish. This has been a good reminder of why we buy the cheap fish and not the super cute expensive ones.
