Daisy Chased by . . .

I was talking to my daughter via telephone when Daisy cat went
streaking by--chased by something.  She was moving so fast,
faster than I've ever seen her move, so I couldn't tell what was
behind her.  And she was yowling and growling!  I told my daughter to
hold on while I went to investigate.  She was sitting on bed
eating the string on an old balloon of my grandson's.  Daisy has a
"pica"  habbit,  But a balloon?  I slowly, carefully removed the string;
she had swallowed a good bit of it. And she was free, and
very relieved, of the dreaded monster chasing her.

Chicken House Comng.

Finally!  Mr. Natural has had enough!  He has ran after the chickens
today until he's exhausted.  Not even snacks deter them from flying
over the fence going for a walkabout.  He went to Lowes this evening,
and put orders in for the chicken house materials plus the materials for
the retaining wall.  He has the plywood, but the chicken house both of
us really liked was much bigger than the small ones we originally looked
at.

Blondie now wants to be handfed--Sweetie caught on.  So she wants in
on that too.  They have my number; that's for sure.

The white squirrel is still here.  It's a bit fatter now which is good.  And not
pest at all.  The other squirrels have driven us crazy lately.

I am having computer problems as of late.  I was lucky to be able to get on
online at all; I had been trying all day.


(End Note--Mr. Natural  became sick after this, so I am still without a chicken
house.  He ended up in the hospital after being sick for weeks.  He couldn't
keep anything on his stomach.  He goes back to the doctor on November 1st
to get results of blood work, ect-and hopefully a name for what caused this.)
