| I looked remarkably like Max Wall |
I tried my onesie on last night and I must admit that I won't be wearing the bloody thing again....going to the bog in something that has a zip which only reaches down to your sternum seems far too complicated for someone who was needing a very quick slash during Sherlock last night.
Never again
This morning the stormy weather arrived with a vengeance , and the wind woke us up around 5.45. I dragged myself out of bed, and putting on a hastily grabbed coat and hat, I took the dogs out on the lane for a quick wee.
Yes..I never mentioned trousers did I ?
Well I had my long johns on, so I thought it wouldn't matter, given the fact that I thought it was a deathly quiet Sunday morning.
YES, I KNOW ITS FRIGGING MONDAY MORNING NOW!
So apologies to the two early morning commuters who got a good look at my chicken legs in the lane his morning........it wasn't a good way to start the day
Anyhow on a lighter note...I have had a couple of queries about condition of the Muddy coloured Hen. ( the sick little bird that presented herself to me in the dark) Well , I must say , she's looking a whole bit brighter than she did. I have placed her in a run with the silly looking Phyllis Diller, and every day, she is fed with a spare duck egg, which she eats with some gusto. She is still incredibly underweight and a bit shaky, but her eyes are bright and she remains alert and thoughtful
She's doing ok

| No I am not choking my chicken She looks better than I do this morning |
I wear Long Johns in the winter too, but sometimes I forget about them - like when I time my walk to the toilet in the pub, then frantically search for the old boy amongst four different layers of clothing, going in four different directions. So far, so good.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteI just thought I had pants on!
There are many good reason for not wearing a onesie. You speak of one reason, but not the main reason.
ReplyDeleteThey make you look like adick head?
DeleteOnesies are even harder if you are a woman! I did consider getting one as part of my campaign to update my image but decided against it. I have enough trouble performing simple tasks (we needn;t go into details) without complicating things.
ReplyDeleteHens - I find that if they survive that first spell they often thrive on TLC,
particularly if they are given a lot of special food (Christmas cake?)
Especially if you live in the NE Scotland where it's blooming freezing! I'd have to bare my top half completely to go to the loo. I'd have pneumonia by the time I got back to bed!!
DeleteI thought you tried on the superman gig. Uh, nice image.
ReplyDeleteDidn't realise that Max Wall did a ventriloquist act with a chicken.
ReplyDeleteI often look like Max Wall when I wear leggings but, mostly they are under the thin (horrible) polyester trousers as the wind gets in/through them otherwise.
ReplyDeleteIs there a pic of Phyllis Diller on your blog?
Ill post a pic above
DeleteNo pictures so we can judge the chicken legs?
ReplyDeleteWOW ~ someone from Pennington Gap ~ you will have to introduce them to us.
ReplyDeleteGlad the hen is feeling better. And I can't shake the image of you in a onesie out of my head LOL
ReplyDeleteI can't believe onesies are back in fashion again?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the little girl is feeling better. She knew who to turn to.
ReplyDeleteHaha! I love the photo of you not choking your chicken!
ReplyDeleteGlad the little hen is a bit better....If you get the weather that we have had you better batten down the hatches! This morning it is -8 degrees....I had all the outdoor cats in on the heated back porch last night...have kicked them out for bathroom runs and will bring them back in very soon.
ReplyDeleteSurely your neighbours are used to you (and your little ways) by now?

I've never been able to understand the allure of the onesie either. When I was a bit younger and skiing it was all the rage for women to wear them on the slopes. Horrible when they found themselves in the bog with snowy wet floors and little rooms that were not always heated!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy do your unassuming ways open our tmi floodgates.
ReplyDeleteGood for the little brown hen.
So happy t hear little hen is doing better.
ReplyDeleteAnd a visitor from Pennington Gap. Perfect !
cheers, parsnip
Love the name of your chickens..When I was a young girl we had chickens and they all had names.. I hated it when my mom at supper time would say the name of the chicken we were eating. Somedays I cried.. So glad that you are taking such great care of your animals.. I went outside this morning and fed my wild birds in my PJ's.. I live in the country..It was -25~~ very frigid..They were so thankful and I quickly went back inside..Have a tiggeriffic day~! ta ta for now from Iowa:)
ReplyDeletechoking my chicken ..... rofl!
ReplyDeleteJo in Auckland, NZ
That last photo and comment are making me laugh out loud on the train to Montreal right now...
ReplyDeleteAt least you had something on to cover your lower half. I never understood the attraction to onesies, either. Having to half undress in winter to heed nature's call is a cruel joke.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the muddy brown hen seems a bit brighter. I'm sure Phyllis is glad for the company, since Rooster Cogburn has left the planet.
