We didn’t start on the chickens. DH had a sinus headache so we went to town. I grocery shopped while he sat in the car. Good thing we didn’t get started, it is raining. Should clear out by noon, maybe we can get to work then. His headache is gone now.

It is still horrifying. My heart goes out to al those people still fighting the pandemic.
After living abroad for many years in the 60's as a child and teen, I came back to the US with a whole new perspective on our limitless freedoms. This is why I am so outspoken when I see them being taken from us.
When we moved to a new country my mother had to register with the consulate and authorities that we were foreigners and give the address where we were living. She almost got arrested in one country because she put down the new address we were moving into in a week. They came to check and we were not there. The consulate had to send someone to explain the mistake. Travelling on trains between European countries we were always asked for our papers and our luggage could be searched for contraband. NO not drugs. Many items were taxed at the border of different countries - cigarettes and coffee being just 2. . One woman traveling to Germany from Holland was arrested and removed from the train because she was taking 3 lbs. of coffee across the border and did not declare it!
Always appreciate this country and our freedoms. Despite the different politics that are trying to ruin it, it is still the best and most free country in the world. I give thanks to God every day that I was born an American. And I always vote in every election so I have the right to criticize the government! LOL

Sinus headaches are terrible, I have a cousin with sinus problems. He is always coughing, it creates a peculiar problem during this pandemic.

Still raining, just enough to keep us inside. South of us, several counties away, is flooding on some roads. Trinity, Houston, Angelina Counties and several others have some roads closed.

We have not seen rain since last October. Monsoon is still one and a half months away, that is if it is on time. It's very hot and very dry.

New York the state or New York the city? There are vast differences. There are 20 million people in the state, over 8 million of them live in NYC. 420 people per sq mile in the state, 27,000 per sq mile in NYC, 67,000 per sq mile in the borough of Manhattan (which most people equate with being NYC). I bet you could find some nice people in the state, probably even some in Manhattan

It finally stopped the drizzle around 3this afternoon, so we got 8 chickens slaughtered. Cleaned up and came in at 6:30. 4 more to go. Bad weather tomorrow, hope there’s a break so we can do the rest of the chickens.
