Glad the new momma is less timid now and hangs out when the other family is there. It’s fun getting to watch all those babies grow up, up close and personal isn’t it? They’re so cute!

Momma of six has definitely been here before...she never ran, but tonight for the first time the little
ones ran to the deck.
Momma of 4 must be new....the minute she heard the door, back to the creek, but not tonight.
She didn't even turn towards the creek. And they were mostly alone this morning...with only 1 other adult duck.

Your outside kitties are in great shape.
We’ve had a few outside cats in the past who still managed to get that rotund thing going. LOL
Guess I’d better scoot. There are a few things to do before going to bed and I need to hop to it. Another early rise ahead and a looooooong day pricing all that stuff. It would be so nice if the other gals would price their stuff ahead of time like I did. I get on them every year about it but it never seems to sink in.
Have a great rest of the night.

Cracked corn....I don’t usually throw any out in the morning. But since the 2 new families have arrived, I do throw it out whenever they are here.

The older little ones are learning fast. LOL! It probably won’t be long until the younger ones run up to the deck too.
I gotta head out. Things yet to take care of before hitting the sack. I hated the alarm clock this morning and I’m going to hate it even more tomorrow. LOL
Get a good night’s sleep tonight. You’re probably bushed.

You too. What a bunch of lazy galz! Sorry you have to do their job for them. I’d be so tempted to say, price your own stuff like I did...but then you are nicer than me. LOL

it’s a nightmare and I hope the boots help. Do they have good arch support? Are you doing stretching exercises to help ease the tension in the tendon?
I had to be off work for nearly a month because I simply couldn’t walk without pain. I had a stand up job on tile floors. When I finally went back, I had to get special permission to wear non-compliant Orthoheel tennies that would help ease the pain.
I hope you can get over this before long!

Good arch support and exercises do help, but I think I need to lose weight.
