The side of the building getting "coop"ed.
I was inside working and checked on him from time to time. Ellie is a daddy's girl, so she helped him for a while. She's not a fan of being hot though, so she really just wanted in. This look says, "Just take me inside so I can sleep on the couch and use a pillow...."
She's still only outside on monitored visits. She's just insane. And, we live near a fairly fast road, so we're trying to keep little, crazy Sophie safe.
So, today, Dustin cut two holes in the building, framed up the windows, and then installed them. I told him it looks like he's making a lemonade stand. This was early enough in the day and pre-glass breaking, so he thought it was funny :).
He put hinges on the windows so they will open and hooks and eyes on the bottom and the ceiling so they'll lock shut and can be locked open.
And... that's all that got done today. We now have big plans for tomorrow!
For now, though, this almost chicken farm girl has gotta get her heels on!
yay for Dustin... sorry about the window mishap. The same thing happened to me last year AFTER I spent a couple of days painting a fleur-de-lis on it. Wind came along and snap! it was in pieces.
ReplyDeleteGlad to meet Ellie and crazy Sophie!
good luck tomorrow!
