is attempting to strip away the blossoms from my fruit trees, grrrr.  To
 try and counter this I did my annual honeybee replacement 
self-pollinating using a child's dry paintbrush.  I think the fruit 
trees and I are engaged now though...
The kid did not advance 
another belt in karate this time due to missing too many classes this 
month--at the beginning of the month some kids in the yellow belt class 
had come in and been little Typhoid Marys, spreading a particularly 
nasty virus around which we of course caught--we were all sick for about
 three weeks.
Still have to alter the kids' Faire costume, she was asking about going last night and it's coming up soon...
And
 one of the baby chicks has broken or dislocated her left leg at the 
hock and is gimping around.  The homemade splint we put on last night 
was an unqualified failure, so I took it off again.  Now she's gimping 
around the brooder box, but surprisingly doesn't look too bad,  I think 
if she takes it easy she may heal OK.
It's like a drama stew around here this week!
