Just a quick update to let you know that we lost a chook last night.
Si came home this morning to find one of our big chooks (the narky one) dead in the chook house. She appeared perfectly fine last night when I fed them the dinner scraps, and Si said she looked perfectly fine this morning, except for the fact that she was no longer alive so we are not sure what happened. I just hope it wasn’t some kind of chicken disease as that would likely mean we’d loose all the others too.
So there is one less chicken to name now, but I think we’ll name her posthumously (is that the right word) so we can atleast say ‘there lies X under the lemon tree’.
And Sif you are not too late for your chicken names at all… I won’t close the polls till midnight tonight and will attempt to annouce and send out links tomorrow night if the world of ‘yousendit’ is good to me!
I also keep forgetting to annouce this here but tomorrow – Wednesday Feb 1st we are having another ‘chat ‘n scrap’ at DSH 1pm (Aus EDST) (which I think is around 9-10pm US time) until around 3 ish. We have our local paper scrapping teacher, Chris, joining us to talk about the art of journalling. No requirements to speed scrap this time… just come with your questions about journalling or ideas to share and pop in sometime between 1 ans 3pm. There will of course be a challenge to scrap something with journalling after the chat – but you’ll have a week to get that done and in the gallery at DSH. So come join us!
Sif says
Oh no, sorry to hear about the chook who died! Maybe whatever was ailing her was also making her cranky??? You should call her “Daisy Sourpuss” – since she is now under the lemon tree pushing up daisies…

Oh that scrap journal thingy sounds interesting-would I have to pay to sign up or anything? I’d be interested in that!
RIP chooky :(
katef says
Oh looooooooooooooove that name suggestions Sif!
And Jayne – you are more than welcome to come and chat with us tomorrow… it’s just like the AB chat (infact we use the same software) amd basicallu we’ll just be chatting about ways to add journalling to digi scrapbook layouts, what to include and ideas for inspiration. I think you need to be a registered member at http://www.digitalscrapbookhaven.com to access the chat room but that is free to do.

Sorry to hear about the chook, I didn’t even pay attention when you were discussing it the other day:( Keeping fingers crossed it was just one of those things and that the other chickens will be fine..
