My days are pretty full with homeschooling kids, cats, animals, gardening, crafts when I get to them, housework & meals...James had a good school day he got 100% in a maths test wacko his not favourite subject! So as a reward we all stopped school & played Risk.
I need to take a photo of one of our very tame last years lambs, she has been named Lilly & comes up to you for a pat - looks like another who is safe from the pot! - Clever Lamb! - She follows you around & then the other sheep will happily follow. I locked up the dog & got Abbey to lead them into the grass area where Mack the dog spends his time - to get them to mow his grass area - mmm maybe his markings aren't too tasty as they didn't like being in there at all.
Our puzzle was packed up & returned to library - James chose a new one number 2 wasgij - The parrot is enjoying having puzzles out as you hear - "don't let the cats in the lounge they will knock over the jigsaw puzzle"
So if you were a bird wouldn't you just love having James all to yourself more & help him do the puzzle?
For tea last night we finished off the chicken from the previous night - it was made into a chicken pie.Chicken Pie
Cooked chicken flesh shredded.
