Busy Me Day

I vacuumed the family room. Did 2 loads of doggie blankets and put the clothes away from a couple of days ago. Washed the dishes. Took George horse a bale of hay. Gave Fuzzy kitten his medicine. Then I relaxed.
That is until I was ready to feed the chickens and guineas. I looked outside because the dogs were barking at something in the yard. The guineas were out by the dog pen. The chickens were still mostly by their run but out. I have to say these are the friendliest guineas I have ever had. When I called to them they came running and followed me back in. Then I had to chase the chickens in. I will tie the gate shut tomorrow as right now it's not fastening right.
All that's left is to write out my grocery list. I need to do my shopping tomorrow. Hope you had a good day.

You were really busy.
I had to go to the toy store after work to get a gift for a birthday party this weekend, then to the Italian deli/bakery for some bruschetta for supper, then to cook supper. After supper we went for a walk since it is so nice and mild today.
Now I am tired.

I started making out a shopping list but didn't know what Pretty might want. We also need to pick up our meds. I'm out of a couple of them... Nothing real important but I don't want to miss taking any of them.
We'll have to ask my brother for a ride again.
I did dishes this morning and there's only the bowl I ate my breakfast in left in the sink now. I took several messages for Pretty. She needs to return some calls tomorrow. One clinic she goes to woke me up twice trying to reach her.
I wish she'd just give them her number instead of mine. (I can't tell them her number. They won't accept information about Pretty from me. Pretty has to approve that and she won't do it.
)
Nothing else happening here. I'm thinking about chicken nuggets and French fries for dinner tonight. Both sound really good.
Have a good evening/night.

@kareng They were very good and I used ketchup and mayo as dipping sauce.

Hope she gets the calls made.
That sounds like a good dinner.

@kareng Mine is over stuffed, I might need to get a spoon out of it to eat my breakfast.

Glad you weren’t so busy you got messed up and gave Fuzzy the hay.
I stayed home today, so it was quiet and relaxing.

Usually chickens are easier to round up but these guineas are very friendly. They are not pets but not wild like most

Sounds like just the beginning of Eva's Spring Adventures.

They are great bug eaters and will get small rodents too. But normally they are a very flighty bird. Also very noisy. They yell loudly at anything new. So if you don't like noisy birds you don't want them.

It sounds like you had a busy but productive day! Taking care of all the animals and keeping up with chores is no small task. Those guineas must be quite the characters — it’s sweet that they came running when you called! Hopefully, tying the gate shut will make things easier tomorrow. Good luck with your grocery shopping, and I hope you get a bit of relaxation in after all that hard work. ??
