Hi everyone,
Today we will see a blog post shared by Marilyn and tomorrow, come back to see some new pictures from my sister, Cindy, and the lady at Yesteryear who sells the dolls! :o)
Marilyn forwarded the blog post of a lady she follows… Joyce Vance. Her August 8th post was about chickens again… I copied the whole
post so you can read it without opening a link.
This is what Marilyn shared:
Only 2 chicken pictures, but that’s a pretty rooster.
I hope George is improving. You sound tired but strong and strong in faith. Do you watch Grantchester? After 11 seasons, they’re done, but the last show had the vicar finding God again. The theme was “Even when I feel farthest from you, I am near.”
No, Marilyn, I’ve never heard of the show Grantchester… but I have to admit that is one handsome rooster! I LOVE that picture of him. Our hens LOVE LOVE LOVE popcorn too!
Here is Joyce’s blog post:
So many of you told me you needed chicken pictures in the chat during our Substack Lives last week, that I asked my son Teddy to help out, while I got in one last week of summer in Maine.

Teddy was nice enough to snap pictures of chickens, like Red, who seems to be eyeing him thoughtfully, for us tonight. He told me they weren’t in a very cooperative mood, though.
When you really like the human who brings popcorn.
There is a lot of molting going on right now in our little flock, and they’re all a bit bedraggled. Snacks, like popcorn, still seem to be welcome.
Pickles is out of sorts with her feathers drooping as she starts to molt.
And isn’t that true for us too? Snacks are always welcome.
We all need a little treat right now, and we definitely deserve chickens tonight. A sweet friend pointed out this morning that as confident as we are, we’ll get through this fight our generation is in for the future of democracy; we really need our gardens, and our friends, and good times together more than ever right now. So, make a little space for yourself this week and protect your happiness and your harmony. Take good care of yourself. There’s a lot of work ahead of us. Thank you for being here with me (and the chickens!) for it.
We’re in this together,
Joyce
Thank you Marilyn,
Blessings, Jeanne
