We headed out to pick up RL and then went to daughter's to get her trash and recyclables and also picked up IR and CA. Daughter has to work at school today to print graduation programs to be handed out in their drive thru graduation ceremony next Friday.
We went by the post office first to mail bills, then to the dump / recycle center, then we stopped by a couple produce stands on the way home and the Dana Dollar General for more potting soil and some 60 watt light bulbs. I am afraid a 100 watt bulb like I always use is going to be too hot in the new brooder box with it in the green house so I thought I should have some 60 watts on hand.
We left there and headed home to pick up the kids lunches. We had lunch then they played for the cloudy misting rain afternoon inside.
Holding baby chicks was still the favorite activity of the day.
After checking it multiple times it didn't give off enough heat to raise the temperature to 95 so i changed to the 100 watt bulb. It got it too hot , up to 105 quickly so I took the cover off the screened window in the side of the box and them temperature dropped to 93 so maybe that is what I will do at night and in the day time if the sun shines I probably won't need any extra heat.
Between going up to the greenhouse and back several times I worked on CA's quilt and got it finished except for finishing the embroidery on the back of who made it.
No pics until CA's party on Saturday.
Thankful for the blessings of this day and for a special little blessing that God allowed us to have.
God Bless and Good Night
