thats nice.So hows your renaming your pet goal going?

Rain sounds like HEAVEN right now. My makeup is even melting inside my house..I have a window air unit and a fans going full blast but it up in the 90's and my house is reading 94 degrees cause had to have backdoor repaired so it was open and the air was going out of it. Door frame was cracking and had to reseal around the door.

My new goal is to try and put back at least $5.00 a month till I have enough to pay off my shed.Its a rent to own.It's been turned into a chicken house. So no more buying eggs.I do not and will not kill animals for meat. Contract is for 5 years unless I pay it off early.Its less than 2 thousand.it's 200.00 a month in payments then after a while payments drop down.I even have a 5 year warranty in case of leaks or wood rotting or anything like that.

So far got 0.47 put back at moment.There is a chance I will get at least a thousand dollar check by the end of the year but some of that will be used to pay off bills.So im hoping to pay the shed off by the end of 2021.

Ive stopped buying any and all beauty products. So my gift cards will go toward things like groceries,household things and things for my cat such as food. Which should help me use my income to pay on bills.

It's stormy now, maybe rain later. Homegrown eggs are better, our ladies are picking up as well. One or two lay cute little eggs, the rest put large or greater. I personally haven't killed, but I have eaten slaughtered livestock. But that comes with relatives who can and do.

As for renaming, that is quite taxing. I want to give my Dilemma a space-themed name that includes a real-life component, and several others simply because I don't agree with theirs.

Ive been debating on what to do on my shed/coop floor. Its some kind of compressed wood..Wonder if I need to use a sealant on it so it doesn't rot out..Im trying to get it ready for use so far its just sitting in my yard. Chickens are in a pen but keep getting out. my shed/coop has a lock on it to keep my neighbor who likes to snoop and steal out. Im thinking of putting shavings or straw or hay on top of the floor it just depends on whats cheapest. I think a seal on the floor would help but im not sure what to get.. Ive heard of rubber sealant but is there something else thats just as good but cheaper?Honestly im not even sure on how much sealant I need..Do I do it oz per inch of floor or what?

Im in a rush to get things done that need to be done.Such as my chicken coop,repairs and other things.I had surgery back in February on my right leg now I need it on my left leg and it will put me down for few months.

on the renaming thing have you thought about galaxy names like the milkyway.Or supernova,cosmos,apollo,Galexia,Andromeda(a name of a galaxy and its a Greek mythology princess. The name means ‘ruler of man’) or something like that?

Well, my last week was filled with events. We got a flood on Tuesday and I spent the day pumping water and undergoing damage control. On top of that eight of our chickens died.

This was just before the storm subsided As for my Dilemma I named him Bounded Infinity, A physics term, but related to space. Some galaxies have catalogue names, i.e. NGC 6822, the rest seem pedestrian.

looks like the fields when there flooded.I seen one where you couldn't even see the bottom or tell how deep it was.

I just like mythology.I took it in school but they only taught very little.It was like a mish mash of things. Egyptian mythology,roman,Greek and for some reason we learned about non mythology.Such as pyramids,cavemen drawings and other odd stuff.It was a middle school class(7th grade).Honestly I learned more about mythology from that cartoon when I was a kid called "Hercules" it was a animated cartoon.Oh did you know Disney uses space names and mythology names?Such as Ariel its a moon of Uranus.Aurora is also the name of the Roman goddess of dawn, whose tears turned into morning dew.(I know its probably just a coincidence but I thought it was neat.)

I made my goal of saving 5.00 this month.I even went a little over and put back 5.47!So If I keep putting back at least $5.00 a month I should have the shed paid earlier than 5 years.Im on a 5 year payment plan but with me putting bac a little each month maybe just maybe I can pay it off in 4-3 years.If I get my thousand dollar check I can pay it off in 3 years for sure.well thats once I take out some money to pay some debt off for good.

I'm no stranger to mythology, but I did most of the reading autonomously. One of my favorites is the origin of the sun and moon.

In short a man and a woman needed to sacrifice themselves to bring light to the world. To do so involved a fire, the man didn't want to be singed and stayed on the edge. He became to moon, the woman decided to plunge into the middle and became the sun.

I think its mesoamerican, but I can't recall which specifically.

ive never heard that story before..But of course my school didn't even teach about the civil war or even any wars.Honestly my school taught very little and let people graduate who slept through classes..

Anyway got my shed floor measured think I need 2 gallons of weather proof sealant for the floor.I can use whatever left for the pop door Im going to put something over it to keep rain from coming in the cracks.

I don't think ive ever listened to the radio.I mean yes people will have one on but I don't pay attention to it.

I got 3.00 put back so far for this month.SO that's 8.47 total put back. Im putting money back so when I have enough saved up and it's enough to pay off the balance left I can just payoff early and save a few dollars.I pay monthly so with the money ive already payed and money im putting back im hoping to pay off early.(hope that makes sense) My thousand dollar check be here this month or next.It's money owed to me for place over charging me.

sO way it looks I MIGHT be able to to get my floor sealant,Paint brush/paint roller(found a kit with both and includes tray for under 10.00) and put back money for my shed payoff.Of course I will also use some of the money for house repairs.MY back door I just got "fixed" is still got water coming in my house.sO im not pleased with the person who "fixed" it.I can see daylight between the top of door and door frame.So when it rained it all came in and ran down door into my carpet flooring..

Ive also put back a 5.00 walmart giftcard.Im now working on a 30.00 prepaid visa.SO far the visa goal will take me a few months.TO earn it I have to do surveys and they don't always credit.Surveys can be anywhere from 0.25 to 10.00 BUT to cash out you have to have 30.00 worth.Im only at 10.00 there is a limit on some of the earning methods and honestly all I do is a few surveys the daily poll which gives a penny and sometimes for reading me emails from the site I get 2 cents per email.SO ya it takes forever.

It seems radio and music are the only entertainment that can still get my attention. I stopped watching TV over ten years ago, and movies died for me in 2007.

My freelancing still yields for day to day expenses. But at least whom asks for my help is usually for things that don't have room for major error. Cutting weeds and yard duties are no brainers. Of course they pay cash too...

I watch mostly old tv shows.Like I dream of Jeanie,threes company,green acres,ect.The current stuff is pretty much same plot over and over..I figured out the ending to a movie before it was halfway through the film.When its gotten that predictable its very sad..

I found someone to do my yard stuff for free.So now I just got to figure out my shed cause I need someone with a saw who can cut exactly 12 x 12 square without messing up and making it uneven.It will be the hole for the pop door.

I have a old dog pen that I might be able to expand and make a chicken runner out of.Would just need to figure out a top for it.

Im currently letting the adult chickens run around the yard and go in the old shed.Its floor is rotting out it came with the place when it was purchased.who ever built it did not treat the wood and the doors are warped..

So I got lots of plans but no clue if I can do them all before I have leg surgery..cause surgeon is trying to hold off till my insurance will pay for it which will be sometime in 2018.I can't even have physical therapy on it cause it would make it worse.(its torn inside)

Hell, I'd do it for free too. But at some point they'll think I'm a workaholic. On account that I don't seem to tire, or want to go home. Which is true, I hate free time. I'm sorry, but I do. My previous job had only Sunday off.

As for entertainment, I followed a set of rules to narrow my choices. As time went on, the same five rules all but wiped out my selections. So I only adhere to that last one: Just don't watch it.

My ladies have been thinned since the last storm, we lost eight hens and one rooster. I managed to get them safe inside their coop, but they died the next day.

well person owes me money cause they ran over my mailbox and broke the pole in the ground plus they did some other damage..sO they will be mowing my yard to pay off there debt to me.

I just found 3 cracks in my shed window and I have done done nothing to the shed other than measure the floor.I had to file a complaint but so far heard nothing.Im weary on buying any paint or anything now.It has a 5 year warranty and it had too have arrived with the cracks in the window cause no way I could have done it by just measuring the floor.Honestly the tapemmeasure is the only thing other than me thats been inside the shed since it was set on my yard.

Im raising 5 baby chickens in my area in my house weather was nice today and they have there feathers so I set them outside in a shady spot with some grass.There in a cage.they loved it they found a worm.I set them out so I could clean up there little area in my house.

If you incubate eggs and hatch them then you will have your chickens replaced for free. I have a incubator but no clue if it still works..I got it like 3-5 years ago.Babies I set outside came with my adult chickens.

It can be fun to dig out old wooden fixtures and call the ladies. They'll just peck away, and start scratching for more.

Even though I'm their caretaker, it seems that my geese are still apprehensive about me. Only one is less so, enough to let me hold him in my lap and feed him apart. One of the older hens laid eggs and is on her way to hatching...I best keep an eye on her.

well thats good that you got babies on the way.

I had a unexpected 1600.00 expense come up..I have to put 700.00 down Saturday and pay the rest by the 20th of this month..Sigh..next month going to be a rough one thanks to this expense.

my check for the reimbursement ive heard nothing on other than the amount is still being negotiated and could be awhile..

Looks like all my baby chickens are hens except one.

hoping to get enough in gift cards to make up for the unexpected expense.It would take a lot of time though to earn enough to make up for that big of a chunk of money..so far all I got is that 5.00 walmart card put back and the shed money ive been trying to put back..why does everything got to cost so much money..

I may need to relocate the mother to be, it seems others are laying eggs in her nest. I don't think she should have more than a dozen. But I don't have enough experience with this to do it myself. It'll have to wait...

ive been busy.. started a project pan(where you challenge yourself to use up your makeup) so far ive hardly made a dent..I choose makeup that I need to use up so it doesn't expire..Some of it is like half used already but some is like almost full.. But I have till January to use it all up. It's basically a challenge for yourself.

on my goals well..ive ran into some problems..got to call my surgeon my knee is giving on me.. Not been able to work on my shed cause warranty people supposed to come out and look at cracked window. Got my check ive been waiting on but its not for the correct amount..Lawyer says it could take years and have to go to court to get the rest of the money..They got me for over 2 thousand dollars..I only got less than a thousand back.(medical bills)

on bright side im not as depressed feeling as ive been.

My goals are to 1 - Keep up with all my work and not fall behind 2 - Call the office to schedule an appointment 3 - Get a haircut and dye my hair 4 - schedule some time each day to read or listen to a podcast 5 - Call other office and see if they will take my application to join the program still 6 - hesitant on this but get my ears pierced and eyebrows done and learn a bit about makeup

Most of these things are things that I have been putting off because I get very anxious. I've had to stay an extra term in university in order to graduate so here's to being more accountable to myself and being more aware.

It might be too late to hand in my application for the program tomorrow but we shall see...

Recently I have gotten the urge to dye my hair, pierce my ears etc. My household and the schools I went to were very strict about this growing up but recently I just thought why not?

Podcasts are my main source of entertainment now. It's like a radio show a bit and I like to listen on the train since I have a long commute time about 1 1/2 hrs.

i hope your chickens are doing well
