BYC Café

Doc's report OK. Well mostly OK. A1C is pre diabetic... Got to fix that now. There went the ice cream with meds at bed time.

Keto ice cream? It’s really good.

I remember your telling of this some years back. A nightmare I'm sure lived on with you for some time. I can't recall if you mentioned the cause.

I remember your telling of this some years back. A nightmare I'm sure lived on with you for some time. I can't recall if you mentioned the cause.

The cause was a power strip that shorted out, overheated and burst into flames (at least that’s what the insurance investigator determined, given the location of where the fire started). He said it was about the same as if we had poured gasoline on the rug and threw a lit match onto it.

As scary as it was that night, we were truly blessed. It definitely gave us a different perspective on what’s important. We all got out without major injuries. That’s all that matters.

Good Afternoon all!
I got my decorations up the other day but I'm NOT sharing pics for another couple of days seeing how I just got a new decoration which is going to be hung up when FH comes home tomorrow or Wed (he's currently out of town for the night).

We won't be decorating at all. All of our hoop coops scare people bad enough as it is...

Bobbi j, do y'all have anything like this behemoth? Looks like a real workhorse. Bet it cost a dollar or two.

That rig makes my little John Deere garden tractor look like a dwarf....

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.
I got my flu shot yesterday and now the lymph node in my left armpit is swollen. It happened after my first two Covid shots too. It's what triggered all the hoopla in the subsequent breast exam. I go in for my annual BE in 6 days. Here we go again.

That is a silage chopper. We don’t have one of those. They are used by the multi-thousand cow dairies in the area. And yes - they (and any farm machinery, really) cost a dollar or two. Our “newest” piece of machinery is about 30 years old.

And what about your hip?
