We're getting another two chooks today! Two heirloom breeds - a blue-laced Barnavelder and a speckled Sussex. No names yet, we'll see how they behave. B1 wants a friendly chooken that she can pick up and cuddle.

Anyway, they'll spend a week or two in the smallest coop, being locked in nightly. Then they'll be allowed out into the front yard to wander around and get their bearings and watch the other chooken. And then we'll open the gates between the two sections and let the girls all work their pecking order out.

Honey Soy is not 100%, although she's on the way back to normal. Still a bit light, still not eating as much, but her behaviour is pretty normal, even if she doesn't seem to poop as much at night. Basically, she seems pretty much fine, she just HATES being medicated every morning. (At least another week of it for her. Life's tough.)

Everything else...

Well. Work is going crazy.

New system wasn't installed correctly - apparently there's a ocomponente that you MUST install even if you're not using that component, except it's apparently Optional on the list of installation components?!?

The guy who is supposed to be helping tends to point me to blogposts which wasn't exactly helpful when trying to work out how to fix things. I spent all of Monday turning in circles, trying to fix things.

I also have a Payroll update that needs to be done across four environments (Sandpit, Development, Quality Assurance, and Production) by April.

My Permaculture group is starting meetings again, and we need to do some planning PRONTO.

The open gardens for my city require some work on the garden, so I'm having a working bee on the 13th February, to prune things down, clean things up, sort things out, and get stuff organised.

There are a couple of guys in suits walking up and down the street. I think they're real estate agents.
