a bit of both maybe.. but we will see once we get back after the reunion. well the more, the more body heat to keep the coop warm. i am hoping to not need a light this year.. but we will see. i knew oh a few but when i started getting chickens i have learned of them all, LOL i will try and take one today.. i always forget the camera.. haha. today i have to take the eggs out of the egg turner and put them in lockdown until they hatch.. so excited. it rained here a little last night.. it was nice, but it gets sooo hot during the day :O yes, we love the beauty of BC much more then the prairies. yes, we defiantly feel like it.. but o know were not, my dad is 80 so i think i have a ways to go, LOL haha yea gel grosses me out, haha xD lmao yea that could be but i here it a lot and i bet i will at the reunion.. until they sere my husbands blue eyes, then they may forget everything xP i can't function in the mornings, everything just ain't right. eating breakfast makes me feel sick too if its too early.

heya dear, how are you?

Ah, sorry to hear! I hope it's been a good busy and not a bad one!

Can never have enough cute things, haha. Yeah, that does make sense with the body heat. It would be cute if they all snuggled or something, though. Do you use a night light or something to keep them warm? Hey, no worries about the camera, if you get to it it's fine. ^^ I forget stuff all the time. xP What is 'lockdown'? A special box or case? And yay for hatching! It does get quite hot during the day, here, too. I mean, I like to soak up the warmth because I'm cold all the time, but I know it bothers other people. I imagine most of Canada being beautiful, seeing as I've never been. I guess you made a home there, so no going back? And yes, a long way to go to 80. c; It's not just gel, hair spray can make your hair all hard and blech. I hope you don't hear it too much at the reunion, don't want to them to wear you out too quickly. xP Ooh, are his eyes really pretty? And yes, mornings are horrible. I'll have my breakfast at a much later time, thank you. P.S. Your HA is gorgeous!

yea, they are pretty at keeping themselves warm, they fluff out the feathers and trap air to keep warm. they all just on a perch and they and pretty close to each other. if it gets cold enough i have a heat light for them.. needed two last year as i only have 4 hens for a while. i got pictures but i have to get them from the camera to the computer now, LOL lockdown is when you stop turning the eggs and get the humidity up and not open it if you can. seen at least two eggs rocking last night.. which means a couple were at work. the little buggers have a lot to do.. first they crack around the inside and then they have to peck through and go around again. the outside time is called zipping. it has been pouring rain here and making my wrist and knee hurt something fierce. i can not wait for the day we can move back, BC is defiant;y where i am happiest. :) i think i have used hairspray maybe twice in my life, prom and prom pictures. thank you, i love your mintiness :O

Aw, that's good to hear. They need all the warmth they can get up there. xP And ah, a heat light. And yeah, I'm lazy with getting pics from my phone to my computer, but I haven't take many recently anyways (mostly pictures of my cats, heh). Ooh, sounds exciting! And yeah, an incredible process for sure! I'm sure they're plenty tuckered out when the ordeal is done. 'Zipping' is an adorable word. It was sunny here and when I got to work, then started pouring, then stopped. Rinse and repeat for the rest of the afternoon and evening. ^^ At least I didn't have to go far to get to my car. The weather affects your wrist and knee? Hopefully, you guys can move back sooner rather than later. c: My mother uses hairspray all the time, and I don't know how she can do it, to be honest. Awww, you two look adorable together. That was your prom? I didn't even go to prom (junior or senior year...though there were extenuating circumstances senior year). Mint is a fun color to work with! And you look both adorable and elegant. <3

I HAVE CHICKS!!! :) 10 have hatched and i think 11 may have dyed.. hasn't moved in some time. i use a camera but the little SD card reader on my computer doesn't work right anymore.. so i have to take it apart everytime i want to get it back out. the knee wasn't all day but my wrist was killing. i have really weak wrists xD its supposed to be cloudy today and then nice the rest of the week and rain again on sat again. :? no that is the morning of our wedding day :D

Ooh, yay!!!! And ah, sorry to hear about those that died, but yay for the ones that came through! Ah, I've never had a camera of my own, and I don't know where my parents' one is, haha. You could always go to some place with photo and get the pictures developed? People come in all the time where I work. xP Yeah, taking it apart does sound like a pain. I have weak little wrists, too, don't worry. I can never find a watch that fits it. ^^ I haven't paid much attention to the weather recently. I think it rained yesterday or the day before? It's been cloudy here, I think. And ah, that's so cute. Isn't it bad luck to see the bride before the wedding, though? xP P.S. Your HA is so pretty! I have yet to use those Shengui Guo headpieces.

haha, no worries, that's how the weak are weaned out. but i do have 10 healthy little chicks :D my sister got me the camera as a gard present xD so i've had it for some time.. need to update it. i havn't gotten pictures developed since our wedding planning. ^^ i hate having things on my wrists/hands. i don't wear any jewelry except sometimes necklaces. its finally nice here.. just waiting for hubby to have time to mow the lawn. haha, we didn't care about that.. he just was kicked out when i got into the dress. :) thank you, yours is very blue <3 i actually just through this one together.. need a change ;)

I agree! Not sure how close I will be owning anything though since I just started working xD

Moving went smoothly! Thankfully I had family to help me. I'm finally all settled in. I'm just waiting for my washer dryer to be delivered but thankfully I made friends with some neighbors and they let me use theirs xD

Yeah it can be o:

i really can't remember what we were talking about but yea, how is the new job?

LOL sorry I haven't been on in like a week plus. It's good.... just a lot. I feel like it's completely different from my clinical rotation during my internship but it's only been the first week. Hopefully I'll get the hang of it soon. BTW - love that dress.

no worries, haha. oh i'm sure you will. do you like it though?

ah, thank you :)

HELLO FRIENDS!

hey gurl how are you?

Aw, poor weak ones. ;; But awwwww, those chicks are adorable! Look at how fuzzy they are. <3 What's a gard present? That was nice of her, though! Getting pictures developed can be a pain, though. Although, there's this one lady that sends in hundreds and hundreds of pictures...maybe thousands? a week. Just yesterday I printed around 500 pictures for her (so many dog pictures...I saw she got a new puppy, but that's a little excessive). Oh, I don't go anywhere without my watch, haha. Ever since I had to take the CNA course and needed a watch, I always wear it. Comes in handy a lot, too, since I don't carry my phone with me everywhere/always have it on me. I /do/ wear lots of necklaces, though...I have way too many. It's been really rainy and cloudy here, so glad to hear the weather is nice where you are! I was just teasing with the luck thing, but it's good he had to wait to see you in the dress. xP And well, blue /is/ my favorite color. I think I need to finally change my HA again now. I like the colors on your one now!

Glad to hear the moving went smoothly! It can be such a hassle, especially when you move over about half the US. Not that that was the case with you, haha! And nice that the family was there to help you! I'm sure that made things even easier! Glad you settled in quickly! Hopefully your washer comes soon, need the essentials. It was nice of your neighbors to let you use theirs (and that you made new friends!); I don't know if I've ever been to a laundromat...but it doesn't sound like life experience I particularly want. xP

Hello!!! How've you been?

OMG first off, I LOVE YOUR HA <3 yea well weak chicks wouldn't have made it long, right. i meant grad, haha oops. haha i am not good at getting pictures.. i may get a few but i delete all the bad ones and keep only the really good ones. whats CNA? i don't really care about the time so much, lol xD i have my phone sometimes but defiantly not always. a storm has just literally rolled in :O and apparently a area north of us is flooding :O no worries, we just are not all into the whole you can't see the bride before the wedding thing, LOL i do love RED :) this is actually a older one.. but i am gonna be getting rid of a lot of my CWs in a few days.. if i have time.. haha xD busy getting the house/yard ready before we leave next week for my reunion.

I've been well! How about you?

i've been busy. gotta get the house in order before we leave next week for my family reunion. trying to pace myself do a little everyday, but tuesday/wednesday will be long days.. haha xD

How long are you away for?

That'll be fun! Is it calling for rain?
