I figure I'm lucky I am still around... I started thinking about age.
The oldest chicken I have - 4 years.
Rudee, my dog - nearing 12
The oldest llama I had, made it to about 26.
Oldest person that I can think of in my family - 95.
Oldest person I ever knew personally- 104.
Oldest (verified) living person -122
Oldest tree - around 4000 years old
Oldest known Barbeque - one million years ago, approximately...
Oldest known thing on Earth - 4.4 billion years old (a gem).
The Moon - 4.5 billion years, give or take.
Aaaannd the Universe, in general - 13.8 billion years, or thereabouts.
All things being equal, I feel pretty young, really!

The weather has been sunny here, but today it's raining. We could use it, a little bit... The various fruit trees here are flowering, which gives the aspect of snow when the wind blows in the afternoon. Somehow, I think there are several areas in the US that really would like THAT kind of 'snow storm' now...
Unfortunately, the wasps have been waking up and buzzing around. I am sure happy Husband finished the bracing in the pole barn while it was still early! I go out to my pickup, in said pole barn, and I might find one, two, or sometimes several wasps, sitting on the hood. I have to be careful, this time of year, they will bounce onto some of the vents, and it's not unusual to have one or two in the CAB. I am not allergic, small blessing, but I still don't want to be stung.
I will be staying home today (gasp!!!), so I will be getting a fair amount of... Ok, if you do work on a computer is it still paperwork? Anyway, I will be doing a lot of typing.
This is, of course, after I let the chickens have a morning run, and breakfast, and get the other animals (and myself) fed. Then, if I have time, I might replant the zukes. They went from two leaves to the true leaves in about a day or two, and the roots are now climbing out the bottom of the pot.
Told ya they were ALIENS!!!
