    61. Falling mist, except when it was wind driven mist. Going on 30 odd hours. Two things are happy. The ducks, and the Mushrooms. The air is so wet, i was wiping rust off tools inside the barn. Give me some gaslamps, or an old style lantern, and I can play the Victorian Cthulhu game for...

    Hammer drills have a purpose. CONCRETE. That would be their only purpose. But as I am building a concrete home... Impact drivers - nice for setting screws into tin / metal roofing. Or concrete board (i.e. James Hardie Board, etc) Nails aren't for anything permanent - but if you are going...

    Non-specific chest wall pain the cartilage in my ribs would inflame and press on my heart and lungs feel like you can't breathe and you can't take a full breath or laugh or cry or gas or yell. Eventually, I recovered. Hopefully you will get there too.

    My Universal experience with steroids oh, particularly methyl prednisone, is that it made me feel like Captain America even though my body was in the condition of pre serum Steve Rogers. At best. As soon as the steroid course was over, I was at least as sick as I had been before. Likely because...

    I was sweating today, just walking the 1/3 mile of the electric fence. and No, I'm not THAT out of shape. It was high 70s and about 99% relative humidity. You could hear the fence shorting to damp tree bark when the wind blew the branches close to the lines (slowly trimming it back with the...

    Full and fast recovery to your family. Yes, makes good gravy. My birds, same - though they tend to toy with the innards more than actually eat them. Even so, its enrichment.

    I'm headed to the grocery store now. Dinner will be whatever both looks good and is on special - either a small prime rib or a small semi-boneless leg of lamb I hope. Had goat tamales last night. Masa was a tiny bit crumbley. My fault. otherwise, quite tasty. a very good morning to all...

    We are taking a duck today for ours. and a couple chickens. Though I am considering breaking down and buying a semi-boneless leg of lamb. Its something of a tradition. In which case, the duck and the chickens (all old) will likely be processed into a ground meat mix and turned into stuffed...

    Hmmm, sold 4 flats of eggs to one buyer, 8 flats and a few more to another buyer, candled some duck eggs nearing hatch, read a book, started another, worked on improvements to rabbit run 1 of 3, and slept really poorly. So, nope. The things that needed doing mostly didn't get done.

    I seed directly, but I have a forgiving climate - its part of why we bought this land. I've also failed at gardening, a LOT! But I've a black thumb, by any measure.
