Hello old regulars, friends, and new members :D!

The flock is doing well. Griffin recently had his 4th birthday. I can’t believe it!

I have a ton of good newer pics, but Photobucket has held them hostage unless I pay them, and I really don’t want to if I don’t have to :25:. I’ll do it if I can’t find a better way. I tried Imgur, but it doesn’t seem to work on my iPad. Ugh.. so for the time being, no pics :17:.

We’re getting ready to renovate the backyard, clean and refresh it, and plant new grass. Little by little the house too.

Starting to get the premises prepared for a new puppy!!! Another thread on that later.... :)

Anyway, just thought I’d say hi. It’s good to see you again and meet new members too!

A welcome back to featherland!

Aaaah, the joys of recovering the lawn! Rototiller! The tool of choice for recovering a yard. Just remember to let it do the work!!! If you don't have one Rent One! And, rent the one with the bells and whistles as it will save your back, legs, arms, etc...

Have fun!

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Welcome back, Julie!!!! Nice to see an update, glad to hear you are making progress.

A bummer you are having Imgur problems with iPad. You know how tech-unsavvy I am, but finally learned to use Imgur to post pics. Haven't tried from the iPad, but find it works well from an iPhone. When I do this, after posting I use the iPad or PC to edit and type text.

Welcome back!

It is too bad about Photobucket, but Imgur works well once knowing how to work through it. There is also TinyPic where you basically just upload a pic and load it then copy the for forums. But Imgur is more notable.

Would love to see pics!

Nice to see you again Julie! I was wondering how you'd been and hoping everything was ok. Looking forward to seeing you and your flock around again:)

Hey lady!!

Good to know I'm not the only one who disappears for gaps at a time... and not the only one cursing at the problems with posting pics :)

Puppy... baby news!! I know you said another thread, but you know we're all too impatient for that! Have you picked out a new family member? Someone just waiting to come home?

Hi Steven, Victoria, Gail, David, Chris, Scott, Shawn, April, Terry, and Jen and all :D. Great to see you again too! Thanks for the welcome back :).

Steven, a rototiller for the yard work is exactly what we were planning on getting!

Jen, you’ll have to keep waiting with baited breath... I’ve been accepted by 2 dog breeders; waiting for shipping details on one. Might not have all the details to make my decision for a day or two. Still have to choose between the 2. It’s a hard decision, really a toss up. Breed and details will be revealed when decision is final... it’s a surprise ;).
