I am feeling a lot better today.  I think this ear infection is finally about gone.  I will be picking up some lavender orps today from a breeder I've dealt with before and I love her birds so I am very excited.  Hope you all have a great day today!!!    

So glad you are feeling better!    Oooooh la la............. Lav orps sound soooooooo pretty!!!  I'm a sucker for the blues or Lav in any breed. How exciting!!!!   I can't wait to see a pic of them.  We had a great day. Dh & I went and had lunch w/ DD today for her B-day. Then tonight Dh & I went to a winery for the premier showing of a new show he helped get off the ground called "Small Town, Big Deal." I had a bout a half a glass of wine and came home and took a nice hot bubble bath and now I'm ready for bed.

I'm glad for that, I know what those things are like. 

ps.  I wish I could reset this font size, cuz I have a hard time reading it at size 12.

baustin, so sorry about your finger, my husband cut part of his finger tip off at work several years ago, I know how painful it was for him     Take care and don't let it get infected.

Dawn, that is remarkable going from secret to openly publicly speaking about it in such a short time, good for him.  I don't worry about getting many diseases, but that one I do worry about, my Gma had it, and I see signs of it in my father.  He won't listen and go get tested though.  My Gma was taking care of a sick and demanding spouse during the early times so we missed recognizing the signs until it was to late for effective treatment. (effective being a reletive term here since none will cure it) they are making some great progress in the amaloyd (sp) plaque recognition and early tx.  If I could afford it I would do the new PET scan.  I have heard about a new treatment trial if I remember correctly they were wanting early onset to participate in the study.  Anyway congrats to your husband, he will do great w/ all his support.  And to you and your family  

Good garden o' peas,  Betty be careful and call the doc. You don't want an infection.   

Sunny,  Lord have mercy.  I know at times it can seem like you're alone but I am with you in spirit.  My father had it and my MIL had it too.  I also know my wifes' aunt her mothers' sister had it too.   So it's something we both think about often as we age. 

I watch anything in the news on it and am encouraged that advances are being made everyday.  The brain is like a muscle and needs to be exercised to keep the  synopsis or whatever they are working and also they can grow back.  PBS had a program on it and it was very interesting.  That's why your DH is encouraged to learn new things and crochet will help.  I know my father took college courses in his senior years.  I think this may have help delay things.   

Tell your DH hey for me.

Rancher

Sunny hope all goes well with your DH's speech.  How supportive you all are.  My prayers are with you both.  It must make him feel so much better knwing you all will be there.  So far the finger is doing well.  I am careful not to hit it as that hurts but otherwise it feels all right.  The dogs and my puppy know something is wrong and they all congregate around me to make sure I'm fine.  Thank you all for your well wishes.

Another sad note.  The appraisal came in low on the house and we're not sure how it will affect the sale.  The sellers will have to pull the house off the market if they won't lower the price and just let it set until the economy gets better or the lender will go for the loan anyway.  There is a $15,000.00 difference and I know the kids can't come up with the extra.

Betty-I'm sorry about your accident. I hope your finger heals well and quickly.

Sunny-Your dh's strength and courage are impressive. He's the kind of person who can really help.
