    The Old Folks Home

    My birthday was Sept. 1. This has been a terrible birthday for me. Still can't eat anything solid, or with much flavoring. Even vanilla Boost, is too harsh. All flavors of Pedialyte burn like crazy. Still, there is some improvement, but it's slow going. At this stage of things, chicken...

    I've had a real rough couple of days. I was prepared for nausea, diarrhea, fatigue, etc. All the usual suspects of chemo. Nope. This stuff has seriously chemically burned my whole mouth, lips, throat... Blisters, and burned, peeling skin. I went to the cancer hospital for it this morning...

    With all the high humidity from the rain, and the heat, it's wreaking havoc on our stored feed. We get fresh feed, and in a week, it's moldy. No, it's not expired, nor does it happen all year. I'm thinking along the lines of something like Damp Rid in the bins, without letting it touch the...

    The IRS is infuriating. We should have gotten our tax return long ago. At first, they claimed it had already been paid. Nope. They reviewed it, then flagged it for fraud. Every 60 days, we get a letter stating that it's under investigation for fraud, and won't be paid until the...

    Dh is upset with himself. Day before yesterday, the power flickered on, and off a couple times, then stayed on. What he didn't notice was that one of the fans in one of the coops, reset itself when the power flickered. They're on digital thermostats. That one fan didn't come on, and we lost...

    There are those that can co-habitate with nature, and thrive. There are those that can not. Usually it's the can nots that are a PITA.

    Duckling attacked by a chicken??

    I just wanted to mention that my own duck has begun molting. From the picture, it's not easy to tell how old your duck is, and it may be young enough it won't molt this year, however, if it's over a year old, don't freak out if starts losing feathers. It has nothing to do with the injury.

    The Old Folks Home

    I agree with not being able to start over very well, at our age. Yes, I am aware at the market value of our home, and considered selling, but like you, I can't find anything comparable for the price, that we would like as well as this place, so there's no advantage. We too, will be riding...

    Sadly, most (not all) other countries are experiencing things just as bad, or worse, than we are here.

    The Old Folks Home

    Yesterday was a busy day for me. I vacuumed, and mopped, which is quite a bit of work in this house. The bending, and stooping tend to make my back ache some. To add to that, Monday I ordered a nice set of pool chaise lounge chairs, with a matching little table, for our pool. When we moved...

    The Old Folks Home

    Growing up, my mother didn't allow the doors in our home(s) to remain shut for extended periods of time. Of course you could close the bedroom door to get dressed, or for privacy, but when the need was over with, the door was to be opened. Same thing with the bathrooms. Once done in the...
