Chickens

Days of Summer #2

Today I woke up with the chickens on my mind. And good thing, as there were three eggs and a whole lot of squawking waiting for me. Not sure what those ladies have been to, but their digs were filthy. I suspect they had a rave, or at least a kegger. while I was away last weekend. Spent a good portion of the morning doing deep cleaning, much to my chickens’ dismay. I felt a whole lot better though.

Then, it was on to terrarium cleanup. Small, teeny, tiny gardens encased in glass, or terrariums, are one of my new loves. Until today, my terrarium was occupied by a wee blue armadillo. At approximately 11:00 a.m. PST, the armadillo was served its walking papers to make way for a chihuahua duo who share a striking resemblance with two real life little dogs. These were hand-made by a student as a thank-you gift. By far one of the best gifts I have ever received, and certainly deserving of a place of honor.

The day came to an end at Hopmonk Tavern in Sebastopol, listening  to my friends Dave and Karen play music, while I sat back and sipped some ice cold wine. Only made better by the fact that summer still has a loooong way to go.
