Trip to Tractor & Supply

Yesterday when I finally drove into town I decided to stop at Tractor & Supply to pick up larger bags of pet food since their associates take them to my car and set them up in the front and back seat so I can easily cut the top with scissors and then fill my five-gallon buckets one at a time as you know I have a bad back and 20 lbs is the most I can carry...though I never push it to that much weight.

I was a little hesitant to go in since there were several cars in the parking lot more than are usually here...well post-pandemic.  I already had my face mask and gloves on before I left the house so headed inside the store.

I grabbed their special cart and quickly got what I needed. I must say that they were well stocked.



On my way out I passed by the chick aisle.  I think for those that know or have the desire to raise chickens now that eggs are so expensive this would be a good time to do so.


Unfortunately, it would not be beneficial for me...too much work!


Mr. Joe (neighbor) has free-range chickens and while in our property their offspring have been eaten by both Paquito and Nico though they had just finished eating...just part of their instinct :-(

Bitter sweet day

Today May 5th marks three years since Pedrito one of the four stray dogs I fostered disappeared.  Maybe "foster" is not the correct term since he came to mom's house on his own and no one ever showed any interest in adopting him.

I remember the last time I saw him like it was yesterday.  It was a Friday afternoon and he was pressuring me to feed him, he ate and off he went into the sunset.  I recall telling my mother that Pedrito had a better social life than I did...he probably had a date and was going to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with her.

I miss you my little one...:-(
