I Had An Epiphany

It only took 4 days to think of a safe shelter for the ducklings to use when they are locked outside. I was watching the dogs run as I walked by the pen this morning and noticed the bottom half of the old igloo doghouse. Turned upside down it makes a solid shelter and the front is plenty big enough for them to get in. So now they can go out every day even when we are gone. Had a good trip to Goodwill. I found a bag of 4 skeins of yarn for 2.49. Couldn't pass that up. Also found a bag with a large amount of beeds and washable markers. Those are put up for Christmas. Bought 2 puzzles that I will work and as long as the pieces are all there they will be Christmas presents too. I also found a light up letter A. It works. That will be a great stocking stuffer for Adeline. Lunch was good as always at the Chinese restaurant. Hubby got a 50 dollar Amazon for fathers Day. I have it loaded on my account . I have a couple of things in my cart now that I know he will enjoy. I will do a little more searching soon and then place my order. Hope you had a good day.

I am sure you made the ducklings happy, that was a good idea to use the bottom of the old igloo doghhouse. Hubby got the Amazon card and you loaded it on your account.

They even tried to hide from me in it last night . It's easy to stand up. I always do. He doesn't shop there much.

I am too. I hated leaving them in while we are gone.

I am doing the best I can to enjoy my day working at home sharing news stories and completing surveys.

Sounds like a great day. The duckies have a new Igloo mansion, you got Christmas goodies, yarn, and didn’t have to cook or do the dishes. Sounds like a big win to me.

That's a good idea for any small type animal I have a few myself I'm hanging on to, but mine are the square type dog crates that work good. You can always or most the time find good stuff that's cheap at a Goodwill, as a matter of fact I need to go find me some brown pants to replace some that are not fit to wear anymore.

This is actually a square one but that's the easiest way to describe it. The top half is partially in the ground from the dogs having dug a huge hole under it. Patch border collie is now the one that claims it. I check it out anytime I am in that area. Almost always find something.

Glad you thought of a solution for the ducklings, and found some great things at Goodwill!
