Changes

Michael sitting on Gregs lap for a cuddle

I decided to make some changes to the blog, hope you like it. If not tell me and I can change it back. I thought it might be a bit easier to read?? We'll see!!!

Some exciting news........... the chicks should be hatching this week!! The eggs are under the chooks and they are still sitting tight :-) Also, we stopped turning the eggs in the incubator this evening. Here is a pic of them ready to hatch over the next couple of days (hopefully).

The egg on the far right I don't think is developing, but the rest seem to have large masses in them

I went over and met a Lilian, who I met on BYP site. What a wonderful lady and her backyard was fantastic - she had the cutest chook pen and a great garden - it was really lovely. Sadly they had been on holdiays and a creature came in and killed their 3 chooks. Very sad. Lilian loaned me 2 rabbit hutches that I will put the mums and bubs in so they are protected from preadators while they are so little. If she would like some more chooks, then she can have some of the hens that hatch.

The bedroom reno is virtually complete. We needed to put another coat of paint on the feature wall, but as I wasn't 100% happy with the colour, I changed it. Greg will re-paint next weekend as we ran out of time this weekend.

I went to Spotlight and got some curtains and a black cushion. I also picked up my Wedding photo on Tuesday - I love it - it looks so beautiful. Greg now just needs to patch the wall where we took down the brackets from the pelmet (not needed anymore) and do the feature wall!!!

I was going for a hotel room kind of look and I think I have achieved that. Very happy with the look I have achieved!!!

One of my oldest friends, Liz, has had a terrible operation this week (Thursday). Liz was diagnosed with abdominal cancer about 2 years ago. It was a rare form - one in a million the Drs said (thats our Liz). They operated and Liz recovered really well. Sadly the cancer came back and they have had to operate again. It's a very nasty operation & I don't think they will leave much of her abdominal organs inside this time, which is extremely sad as Liz doesn't have any children and is so young (36yo) & just got married this year :-( I wish her well with her recovery - she came through the operation really well and is in ICU now. They are starting chemo tomorrow :-( Good luck Liz (((((HUGS)))))
