Thirteen of the oh-way-too-many things I need to do here (outside):1- dig out around the door to the old rabbitry... now the 'summer home' for the chickens. I need to close the door soon to keep the chickens out of there.
2- move the chickens back into their 'winter home'. The 'winter home' is a shed, the 'summer home' is a lean to off the shed. I don't know why they prefer the lean to, but it's not warm enough for winter. It's just chicken wire walls and a tin roof. The shed doesn't have heat, but is smaller with solid insulated walls & I leave a light on to make a bit of heat in there.
3- fix the door to the chicken run... it's falling apart badly.
4- dig out around the door to the chicken run. Over time "stuff" builds up around the doors so they don't open/close properly. They're too close to the ground I guess.
5- put a load of garbage into the utility trailer and take it to the dump.
6- cut down all the burdocks and thistles and put into trailer for the dump trip too.
7- take a bunch of pop bottles & cans in to the recycle depot and get some money for them. Will be good to have them out of the way.
8- clean up the carport and add some more stuff to the trailer. This will make it easier to get to my stacks of pellets for the stove.
9- I have an antique wood stove (garbage burner it's called) outside that I want to cover up before snow, even before more rain for that matter.
10- clean up the flower beds
11- put away the flower pots
12- get rid of non-working barbeque's that I got from Freecycle, was told they worked but they don't. (I put one down at the bottom of the driveway the other day hoping someone will take it, then I can put the other one there. Didn't remember to look today to see if it's gone yet or not).
13- clean out my truck
and you get a bonus again this week....
14- take the rack off the truck and put the canopy back on.
Thanks for visiting by Thursday 13 post. I wish you a wonderful day!!

I'm exhausted just reading your list of outdoor chores. I miss my chickens. We had chickens, bunnies, goats, and all kinds of critters a long time ago when the kids were young.
Thanks for visiting me.
Wow...reading this list has suddenly made me feel a little tired... ;)
Have a great Thursday!
Sounds like you've got your work cut out for you! Phew, I'm exhausted for you!
My TT is up here if you want to check it out.

Good luck with all the items on your 'to do' list. The chickens sound like a lot of work!
Those chickens seem to take a tremendous amount of work. Good luck. Happy TT
After this "to do" list, I can't eat chicken tonight ! lol !
Wow - you have a very busy schedule. I'm exhausted reading all the tasks you have to accomplish - love the range, everything from flowerpots to cleaning trucks!

I hope you were able to do everything you needed to do.
Great list!
my chickens live in the same coop year-round, but this reminds me --- put heat lamp bulb on the shopping list.
That's a bunch of work to do.
