BIRDHOUSE FACTORY
I allowed myself to have a part of a day where I just did something that I just wanted to do, instead of needed to be done (like solar re-wiring, or boundary maintenance). And it was even more glorious than imagined. made three flower boxes, and seven birdhouses, although I didn't get to any decorative ones, just the robust functional ones the birds actually use. They're headed for the garden fence posts, etc. Probably too late for this year's nesters, but who knows. Spring birdhouse maintenance is going to become a day project. I saw a tree swallow!
Habitica has changed my life.
Totally meaningless “points” and pixellated tiny “pets”, yet somehow this is meaningful enough to be life-changing? Yes. Yes it is.I’ve been using Habitica for about three months. In that time I have accomplished things that I’ve failed to for years previous. Here are my examples, big and small.
Coop II, the Mini Coop’r
I added a chicken-spying window so we can peek in at them without lifting the lid. I put one on the original coop too. HW loves it. “Hey in there! Whatcha doing? Roosting? That’s right, I see you!”
Chicken arrival
All ready to release the birds into their new home! Excited, we carried the box of birds up from the car and put it on the floor inside the coop. Reached in to open the flaps, waiting for the heads to pop up, and... nothing.
Instagram.
I may not make a blog post every day, but at least I Insta.
Bite size.
