@jenniferhunter funny you should mention the auto feeders! Last week I made 3 separate auto feeders for my chickens out of 5 gallon buckets with a hole in the side, and inserted a special hood, that allows the chickens to put their heads inside the bucket and eat. They work amazing and I haven’t had to feed all week!
As for the dogs, I have a four month old Queensland healer pup, and she is voracious about food so I would never be able to free feed her.
That being said, every day I am working on my dwindling list of things to do around the property to make things easier for my family to take care of things. Also, it will help to keep me from going crazy knowing that something needs to get done and that there’s no way I will be able to do it.
My carry-on bag is slowly getting filled…..my phone appointment with the anesthesiologist is next Tuesday…and time is flying by.
Oh, and my daughter and I have been decorating the Christmas tree and the house so it will all be done when I return from surgery. I also realized, thank goodness not too late, that I needed to get presents purchased and wrapped, stocking stuffer materials, etc. That was a last-minute save for me🤣
I hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving 😊
