chickenopolis Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hello to everyone logged on today. Here are a few I feel:- Imagine life without chickens in them. Go past the local farm without thinking "I wonder if they have chickens" Stop talking to the girls Stop looking at them free ranging in the garden and finding myself smiling Stop being excited about holding a warm egg straight from the next box I'm a tad obsessed and I only have 2. Is it just me or does your heart melt when you hear them talking to each other in the garden whilst they are rootling about for worms?? Other things - non chicken related (sort of). Go a day without look at the forum Preaching to everyone at work about animal rights Leaving the house with my lipstick, keys and mobile Read a book before going to sleep Go into a food shop and think "what shall I get the girls for a treat" - no you see, back to chickens again. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are a few of mine... stand the feeling of dried soil on my hands, so have to wear gloves in the garden. Stand the feeling of dried flour on my hands either, I don't get the whole love to get your hands dirty sortof thing. Stop gardening or baking as a result of the above, I love both activities. help crying at emotional stories or films resist ruffling my son's hair even though he is now taller than me walk past a cat without stroking it. help but be happy on days like these. prioratise(sp) I flit from job to job and do tricial things whilst the important stuff becomes more urgent sleep in anything more than knickers(there seem to be a lot of us like this on here) get out of bed in the morning, the chooks have helped with this. resist this forum and weather forecasts stand touching conference pear skin and peach skin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
