Little things
Ever notice that when everything comes together and you start really liking your life little things come along to try to "steal your happiness"? Not necessarily big things, but lots of little things that add up... Not that I am going to let things get to me, but they are just annoying...
Yesterday the refrigerator/freezer went out. Caput. All our stuff in the freezer is thawed, so I am having to cook all the meat today, and hope to find a freezer to put it in... We are trying to find someone with a used refrigerator, the nearest one seems to be 100 miles away. *sigh*
Last night we went fishing. When we got home, the female cockatiel had laid an egg! I hurried up and fixed a nesting box for her, but the male wouldn't let her sit on the egg, he kept her away from the box, so I had to put him in a different cage this morning, but since they are "wild", and scared of humans, he bit the crap out of my hand when I caught him. Anyway, so that is my day so far, cooking pounds and pounds of meat and trying to keep the mother bird in her nest! LOL... And you thought your day was exciting...LOL

Amethyst! I'm so sorry. Jeez, when the s- hits the fan, it spreads all over, huh?
There's gotta be a reason. Letsee, the freezer broke so that you could learn not to keep all your eggs in one basket. And the bird bit you so that you'll learn compassion under harsh circumstances.
Yeah, that's it.
Okay, I suck. :)
It really wasn't that big of a deal... Just everything going wrong in the same day... Mom got a better refrigerator, and we now have two eggs...LOL
Somebody put a cork under that bird!
They usually lay 3-4 in a clutch, one every other day... We could have 1 or 2 more!!
We now have 3!
