I had cataract surgery last Tuesday on my right eye. The left eye is scheduled to be done next week. I chose to have the Restor brand multifocal lens put in. The hope is to not need glasses for distance or reading. I was hoping that somebody that a similar surgery could tell me about their...

I haven't been online here for ages. I am going to try to start spending time on the computer again. I miss you guys. DH recently went to the dentist for routine cleaning and xrays. There was a shadow on the xrays that was a growth in his jaw bone. It is most likely a cyst, but there is a...

I haven't been on here in ages. I miss you guys. With my new job, I have no internet time. I have to post now. Other people just don't understand how important pets are. My little Lhasa Apso, Leo, ruptured both ACL's in his back legs on December 22nd. On Dec 23rd he had the first of two...

Sorry I haven't posted much recently. My job got in the way. I just wanted to tell you about pur vactation & my awesome souvenir. We took the horses to Custer State Park in South Dakota for a week. It was great. I really needed the break from work and studying. We rode all day almost every...

On Tuesday I have to go take a test for my new job. Please pray I pass it. I need it to keep my job. It's for the only security principal's license that I don't already have. I haven't been on the computer much since I got the new job. Once I don't have to study all of the time, I hope to...

We hire a guy to bale our pasture and two of our neighbors' pastures. The pasture across the street always gets the most hay off it. There should have been 14 - 18 1300 pound round bales from it. There were only 9. The guy baling said that the pasture was just thin this year. That wasn't...

With the new job, I'm hardly ever online anymore. I miss you guys. I only have a few minutes at lunch.

First of all, this is not a complaint. I recently started a new job. I can't believe how happy all of the employees appear to be. Nobody acts stressed. Nobody acts snotty. Everybody is always smiling. It's a building with over 400 employees that act like the robot people in the Stepford...

I couldn't make a quilt in a day. I did manage to make 35 blocks and start to put them in rows, but I didn't get the whole top together. I just watched one of her "Quilt In A Day" episodes on the DVR and noticed that she has chickens in the intro to her show and she said that she loves...

I have an interview at 2:15 central time. Please pray that I get the job. I really need it. I was laid off, and this job would be perfect. Thanks.

I was just told that I won't have a job after the end of this month. I worked there for 17 years. Please pray that I can find another one. DH lost his job a year ago. He found another one, but he hates it. I don't know how we'll make it if I don't find a good job. This is my third time...

DH got me a Kindle for Mother's Day. I love it. I hate that he spent that much money, but I love the Kindle. He also got me a $25 gift certificate at Amazon.com. I bought 3 e-books and still have about $17 left on it. I have downloaded a ton of free books too.

What kind of trap is best for a weasel? I went in the coop this morning and discovered my black Australorp dead. I strongly suspect a weasel. There were no obvious wounds. She was perfectly fine last night. There appeared to be a wet spoton the floor under her neck. I think that she bled...

I have done a search for this already. My hen has a stubborn bumble foot. We have been soaking and wrapping, cutting out bumbles and soaking and wrapping some more. Every time we wrap it we put tons of neosporin on it. There was some improvement, but it seems to be relapsing. I 've been...

I made DH say out loud that he wanted chicks. I recently hatched some eggs for two neighbors. Out of the 12 eggs that I started with, 8 hatched. DH kept asking, "Are you giving them all away, or are you keeping some?" I was considering keeping 2 and giving each neighbor 3, but I was trying...

I have successfully treated bumblefoot before. I have one hen that has a swolloen foot. I checked her feet. The swollen foot had the tell tale callous. The other foot also had a callous and was starting to swell. Both callous came out like corks. The better foot had some drainage. Very...

Well, I needed more chicks like I needed a hole in the head so I put 12 eggs in the bator for two neighbors. Three were clear. Eight hatched and one died in the egg. One neighbor will take three. The other neighbor will take as many as I want to give. DH has said all along that he knows I...

I am taking the turner out of the incubator and increasing the humidity tonight. There are three eggs that are for one neighbor and 6 for another. The 3 are a cross between my Buff Cochin hen and my Black JG roo. The Cochin hen is the only one with feathered legs that has any eggs currently...

Yesterday, I came home and discovered that my horses were not in the dry lot where they were in the morning. They were in the pasture eating the nice spring grass. I thought that they had broken through the hot wire. I went to get them and discovered that the wire wasn't broken, nor were any...
