Chook House

This old cubby house was a bonus we got when we bought our house.

2 years ago this is where is stood.



Last summer we did a lot of work in the back yard and replaced out rotting deck with paving.

As part of the work we relocated the cubby to the back left corner with plans to one day turn it into a chook shed.


During the October school holidays I managed to get out and give the house a mini makeover.

I gave the house a new coat of paint and young Nicholas helped me make some window boxes out of old pallets we had.


We still have some work to do before we can let the chickens move in but for now it looks
Much better and the total cost of this project was $10 for the petunia's, everything else we already had left over from other projects.



Thank you to all of my lovely friends for being concerned for me and asking how I am going, I had an exciting weekend with an overnight stay in hospital. I started bleeding quite heavily on Sunday afternoon and Nick took me to ED. The gyno on duty removed some more tissue and after consultation with my gyno believe that it may have been a large piece of placenta left. They think that it could have been what they were seeing on the ultrasound and mistaking for the AVM. I was kept overnight because I lost a fair bit of blood and my blood pressure was low so they monitored me, I am back home now and having a few days off work to rest. I have a few more tests over the next few weeks that will hopefully confirm that I am on the mend.

I hope you are all having a lovely day and I aim to spend some time catching up with your blogs this afternoon.

P.S  I just went back over to check my spelling and realised I could include another before and after in this one blog, in the first picture you can see a little puppy running around. It was taken in October 2009, here is that little puppy now.
