I think you're set with how to do it! I think we might have locked the door to the girl's room just because I knew some kids might be along since our church used to always pitch in and help people move. That was nice! I was tempted to see if anyone from the homeschool group had a teen to loan my parents with their move but they hired it out and DH took a day off work. Preparing the pet stuff ahead of time especially just makes it go smoother. And labeling boxes well. :lol:

I wonder what they’d do with a bigger duck bath? 🤔 You think they’d invite more ducks?
I don’t know but this afternoon I had another pair show up and the female tried her best to take a full bath in it, sort of the way a bird does. Splashed out about half the water ! I was thinking about maybe getting some kind of a larger water container for them. Thinking a litterbox, new of course, would be a perfect size!

anyone have a better plan or ideas that will make things easier on her?
One thing you can do is to take an old sheet (now), and cover something that she lounges on with it. Let her shed all over it. When it is almost time to move, cut the sheet into 12-18" squares, fold it fur-side in, and tuck them into a large plastic bag. Once she is set up in her base camp, and the furniture is in the REST of the home, unfold those squares and place several in every room before releasing her into those areas. EVERYWHERE she goes, she will smell herself already there. Instant territory.

I got to watch my nephew’s kindergarten program via YouTube tonight. He is 110% his father’s son!! :lol: All over the place, out of order, spiderman posing…and the sassy pointer finger from another little “seal” told me his classmates are used to his antics and she wasn’t having it! :oops: Worked too though!! :flail:

Deffinitely a fun end to a day that started with me pouring egg whites in my coffee instead of creamer. 🥴

I feel like a review of that needs to go in our coffee and tea thread. :lol:

Sometimes I ask myself "Lari, why have you not lost this baby weight yet?"

And then days like today where I take my two tiny humans to a chocolate festival and stock up on fudge and mystery British chocolates and share a frozen hot chocolate with the girls (though J had the majority) I'm like "oh yeah, that's why."

Fortunately my brain noticed the cream wasn’t as white as normal almost immediately. It was the last pod of that coffee blend though. :rolleyes2:

In my defense the cartons are the same size and brand. And both used almost every morning. Just separated in the fridge by a bottle of wine that I haven’t gotten around to drinking yet. And I have a cold still clearing from my head. And its almost the last week of school. So who knows. I should have DoorDashed myself something good after that since I likely did not have it together enough to drive. ;)
