got someone supposed to be coming for it tomorrow, but if they don't its yours, will drop you a message tomorrow if its still here
todays plan is a slightly chaotic but a less physically demanding kind of day. got to ten the buns, then im goingto the birdfair in Jackson,
lady for th futon is supposed to come this afternoon, (if not its going to the next in line)
and then going to E's to see if ill be taking her angora buns.
well im home from Jackson, splurged at the ird show and boughta pair of English budgies, like the $10 American parakeets only larger, fancier more expensive (handfed babies can bring $75+) and more likely to talk, been looking for English for a while and the guy gave me a good price.
so now I have my parotlets, my young lovebird pair and the English budgie pair, th plets have decided to lay again and are on 2 eggs (talk about timing, my own fault for not pulling the box...she may not hatch them out...but we'll see)
the English should be old enugh to breed but I wnt be setting them up until after weve moved and gotten ettled, and the lovvies wont be ready tobreed until probably closerto fall, I got them a few weeks back from a friend who decided sh didn't want them, there not "friendly" (she was told when buying them they wernt hand fed and that if she got a pair theyd bond to eachother...)
couple clutches a year out of each of hem to hand feed though, gives me some extra cash flow coming in, and its not an expensive hobby.
the plets are currently having a hissy fit about the new neighbors above them, but the plets generaly don't like change...
however they generally breed better when theres sounds of other birds around them..and the budgies will mimic them REAL quickly...
need to figre out names for the budgies though, males green, females blue
sunny and sky are the plets, peaches and herb are the lovebirds...hmm, names names...for some reason I want to cal the mle pickle...mabe pickle and dill?
anywho, still no word formthewoman whos supposed to be picking up the futon today, shes put me off twice already so if she hasn't messaged me in the next 15 mins with a time, im passing it to the next in line, getting real sick of dancing aroun trying to figureout my schedual to accommodate her finding a way to pick it up...her boys have a truck, but last time they were supposd to come th boys were drinking so it wasn't safe...surely if you knew, and they knew you were supposed ot be somewhere at a certain time...youd refraim from drinking prior?! so this is strike 3, if she doesn't pick up today these someone else interested...they can come get it. I need to keep the momemtum going and getting rid of somestuff is doing that...
anywho.
birdshow was small but pretty god, prices were still a little high on a lot of things, some guy charging $200 forgery sugar gliders, ive seen breeders selling greys for $100...he wanted almost a grand for a mosaic (there usually $600)
was going looking for a pair of greencheek conures (ince e-budgies are hard to find around here) but theconues were all priced high, $200 even for breeders (I can find breeding pairs for the pice they wanted fr 1....) but some folk were priced great and realy nice, almost walked out with a caique had I not been poor, $625 bird (actually priced well) pretty girl...someone tried to grab her off the age and she nipped and flew down to the floor, I picked her up and se was snuggling for a good 10 mins before the guy goes, ummm, you know she bites right? apparently not me...lol but theres no way I have nor could justify spending tat kin of money on a lil parrot, esepcailly since keira seems to have a weakness for chasing birds...sometimes she cant even rest chasng the chickens even tough she knows the rooster kicks her tuckus!
anyway, gonna pu somegroecies away andbag up the dogs chicken then have some lunch, no word formfuton lady by the time that's done shes lost it...after lunch heading down to E's...
busy busy.
I hope she finds a good home, birds like that can be hard to place, they choose thie people.
soooo....
what to make of this one...
futon lady, no messages to let me know what time, wed agreed 1-1:30 so at 1 I messaged her to tell her I was indeed home and come by asap...
nothing until she messages me that she gave the 2 boys (apparently frineds of her boys who moved away) the cash and her gps to come pick it up...they left from her house in savannah at 11:45 (it takes 45-1hr depending on where in savannah...) and not here...at almost 3pm....hmmm...
shes now saying they must have stolen her cash and gps...
so belive her and wonder if theres two thieves running round with my address in the gps...
(or if 2 guys are gonna show up at lord knows what time expecting me to be here...)
or take it all as a crock that she was never planning on showing and sob story sounds better than changed my mind?
At this point in time I'd be texting her and telling her I'm so sorry that they stole the money and you can't afford to buy the futon after all. Guess I'll be contacting the other person who wanted it.
that's what I told her...
shes talking about how you cant trust anyone these days and I go oh I know, and now theres2 thives driving round withmy address...and she tells me "oh no, I didn't give them you address, I was going to give it to them when they called from the bank to tell me they were on the way to your town"
yeah ok lady now that just sounds insane, who sends 2 "kids" out with $40 in cash and a gps to a town without an actual address to go to...ad why would theybe going to the bank, and what bank?
so I told her, well unfortunately I need this outta here and ive got others waiting...but ill let you know if I see anything closer to you on craigslist"
got someone now supposed to be coming tomorrow, we'll see.
well the freezer and futon both got picked up so YAY!
then hung out with som friends all afternoon and evening, got home about 9:30 and was tuckered out...today im EXHAUSTED...
was gonna pack some laundry and head p to Jackson to get somestuff washed (i can bring it home wet an line dr it over the next few days as its supposed to be beautiful...
but i don even remotely have he energy today so im dedicating tday as a do nothing/be lazy day and will try to get the laundry done tomorrow..ive got som laundry that neds o get pacd up when clean so....
Wednesday is clean the house day and Thursday is back to boxes i think...
