Labor Day Weekend

Just a quick post before I get to work. Once a year for my daughters birthday I throw a pretty huge party. It's the only event we really have every year so I go all out to make sure everyone has a good time. The party usually carries over into the night for the adults too, so when this time comes all the things I have put off doing like paint the kitchen, replace the broken light in the dining room, etc. get on the to do list. So I will be busy for the next week, cleaning, planning, and preparing for this party.
Last night I looked at my remaining five eggs in the incubator. In two of the eggs I could see movement. Very promising! Squirty's five eggs were all duds I cracked them all open and it was just yolk. So tomorrow, I will raise the humidity and quit turning them and hope at least two hatch ☺ I have a dozen more eggs to incubate when these are done ☺
I'm going to get to painting now, but I will let you know about the babies by the end of next week. Enjoy the weekend y'all!

  1. Sounds like you are doing the eggs right, all you can do is wait and not mess with them though it is tempting.
    Not doing much here for the weekend, raining to the north so we will get it eventually as it is kind of swirling down. Have fun painting.

    1. Thanks Roxie! I spend so much time outside with the critters that my house suffers horribly! I finished painting but I still have so much to do! It will be worth it though I love the party we have everyone shows up and has a ball and then mama lets loose that night, it's really a good time!

  3. I think all of our houses suffer during the summer time! Who has time to spend indoors cleaning? I have some polying to do and I keep putting it off. Maybe I should plan a party really quick so that gives me the push to get it done! I think we all need a deadline now and then to make us do what needs to be done.

    Looking forward to hearing the chickie news . . . and hope you have a wonderful party.
