Back to Day One


It has been awhile I know I just haven't felt like writing been in a funk for a bit but hoping I am coming out of it. The summer is here and I have been sick with heatstroke 3 times already, makes me so frustrated because I feel so good out in the sun but every year I get sick because I stay out to long and then I have to pay for it for a week, but let's hope I have learned my lesson for the rest of summer hahahahaha probably not. It's been a mix of emotions this spring for me, there is a very bad rabbit virus going around so I have had to keep my two boys in the house, I hate that they are inside but I am also to scared to take a chance with them going out. I phoned my vet to see if they will bring in the vaccine for them and they won't, so if I want them to have the shot I have to take them to the other vet and they will charge me about $250.00 because they both have to have a health check first, well I can't afford to pay that so for the time being they will stay in the house, I did make them a big playpen that they like and I am in the process of putting another floor. We had a couple losses my female dove passed away and the next day my last finch also passed, I had moved the doves outside for the summer and after she passed my two boy doves stopped cooing, after 3 days of not hearing them I took them back into the house to be with the rabbit's and my lovebird and by the next afternoon they started to sing again so I guess they didn't want to be out there alone, usually the rabbit's are with them, so everyone is in the house and so far it's fine I let them all out almost every day as long as the cat is not in the room. I have started to take apart the outside barn I have decided to make it smaller and move it to the back of the yard so I can put in a garden were the barn is right now, they don't need such a huge cage anymore with just the two of them plus they have the run of the yard all day, that is if they get to even go out at all this year. tomorrow I  will take some pictures of the process, I have already took all the toy's and bowls and bins out and removed the tarp from the roof so tomorrow I will be removing the floor and the roof, then I have to cut the boards and move the front back about half the size and then move the cage and put the roof and floor back in, that is going to be a big job for sure. Well it is midnight and I need to get some sleep so I can get to work early in the morning, I will try and post the pictures tomorrow....
