Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! This past week has been extremely challenging, emotionally, so once again I’ve gotten barely anything done as far as writing goes. I should finish my current CP project today or tomorrow, and I did manage to polish the sentences in the first scene of StO until they sparkle, but that’s pretty much it. I haven’t even read a book. I’m in the video games/HGTV portion of my writing cycle, and I’m really itching to play WoW but it’s been so long that I don’t want to pay $15 just to get my ass killed by pixelated bad guys 😉
All this non-writing doesn’t mean I haven’t been productive, though. I’ve just been working on something else. A new project that I’m very excited about. On Saturday, after two hours and multiple curses, Hubs and I finished the first stage of this project, and here it is:
That’s right – we’re getting chickens! A couple of Plymoth Rock chickens, to be exact 🙂 Now that the coop is ready, we need to get the feeders, feed, and nesting material (and maybe a couple wheels to move this bad boy around a bit easier), and then it’ll be chicken time! I promise to keep you updated on our progress with this fun new project, because who doesn’t want photos of cute chickens being all clucky?
Prepare for chicken picture bombardment. And don’t forget: Part Four of Ocean’s story will be up on the blog tomorrow, and I have an awesome custom for you on Sunday 🙂 Have an awesome weekend, Aledans!
I would love to have chickens. Why did you decide on Plymouth Rock chickens? Are they easier and ‘cuddlier’ than other chickens?
They’re supposed to be good for beginners, and not afraid to protect themselves against predators (which is good – we have a stray cat that we adopted who still likes to hunt. I’m hoping they’ll scare him right off the bat!).
But mostly because I liked the color pattern 😉
I have a friend who has chickens. It’s great to get fresh eggs from her.
