I love chickens
The white one is new. Her name is Rover. She's all leggy and wattley and struts about in a nervous, springy way.
“Wattley”
She does seem to have a little panic in her eye.
Sometimes I can barely remember being at university. It's like some island country that I visited a long time ago.
Geez, Ted, I feel like we‘re going through a similar existential crisis!
My close hiking friend has four hens and I never tire of hearing about their relationships and shenanigans. Her explanation of their personalities is hilarious. I think I’d really love having hens although totally out of the question with my lifestyle and abode. My friend is concerned that they might impose another round of restrictions on them due to bird flu.
Yes, though maybe less like a crisis and more like a "What the hell?"
Hmmm, you’re probably right. Work was… well work! And chores inbetween work. I probably didn’t have as good a university time as I should have, having gone to a uni in a different language and culture so I definitely prefer the older version!
One odd thing: I find that life in retirement is more like life at university than it is like all the stuff that came in between.
A representative sample, at least!
Who does? I was thinking of the more fluid sense of time as similar at university and in retirement. As for the rest -- taking off the rose-colored glasses -- I remember lots of excitement but also lots of angst, stress, and (it being the late 60s) unsettling chaos.
For me it’s almost the opposite. I remember my university years as a period in my life when I had moved to my own place and when I didn’t have any responsabilities. Except for the studies
I spent a lot of time partying at the university pubs and still managed to do pretty well at the exams. Sometimes when I get mad and stressed about all the bureaucracy and stupid regulations that I meet as a trustee (????) for my son I dream about those careless years
Seven static cameras and my eldest roving around with the eighth. Editing is a big task because there are so many cameras. If I had more people on roving cameras I'd need fewer of them.
Beautiful. Pink shirt? Great video and excellent audio quality.
Pink, yes.
Oh there you are. I didn't spot you until Ann mentioned the shirt. You look good and the group sounds good, too. I do wish I'd learned to sing at some point.
