BYC Café

good thanks Penny! Got a lot done today, and rounded it off by remembering to take a photo of Maria with her own and one of her adopted chicks in the nest box before all the May clutch move up to the roost bar

As you can see, the adoptee is almost the same size as the broody!
 
Good evening Cafe.
Thanks for the coffee DL and Mr sourland. A bit late for me. I'm on the tea now.
The weather people got it all wrong today. It's been cloudy all day. Had a bout as much rain as I could spit, but it's been a bearable temperature.
Some time ago you may remember a large section of the track North out of here got washed away. You might, if you were brave or desperate get one shot at getting a four wheel drive vehicle through. On the other hand the chances are you might easily end up tumbling down the bank onto the track below. The track is a fire truck track; or it was when it was there.
The bombers (catalan fire dept) came to inspect the damage today. They had been told the track was still passable. They were not impressed. Nobody seems quite sure who is responsible for repairing it. Looks like a cut further into the adjacent bank is going to be a partial solution but given the outside edge is going to crumble again it needs reinforcing at that will cost thousands.
 
I've had one of THOSE days.
DHs family have all taken to making decisions about DHs care without even once discussing with the one person walking this planet who knows more about his condition than anyone else because said person lives with him.
I got an email from DHs daughter last week stating she wanted to come up for a visit on 9/11 to talk about her father. That she thought her brother and aunts and uncles were all talking to me about having someone stay with DH when I was gone "ALL day" and that there was some disagreement.
No one has talked to me. I have been given the third degree, have had our lifestyle choices insulted, and been informed that all the family thinks DH should not be left alone. I kept trying to explain that DHs confusion would have been amplified outside his home while visiting them and that he is still doing okay at home. They don't agree. Okay. How would you know? You don't live with him. I do.
I knew I'd made appointments for both of us for physicals and they were coming up but couldn't remember when because I forgot to put them in my calendar.
I called the doctor's office to get the date and times. I was told that DH had TWO appointments??!! What?
One on the same day as me, which I scheduled that way.
One for 9/11. I didn't made that one. Hmm. Same day as the planned visit. Hmm. Is this also part of their "discussions" with me? Making appointments for him with his PCP behind my back? I requested that the office pull up the HIPPA on record. Oh? Really? I'm the only one listed that the doctor can discuss his condition with? I had NOOOO idea!
Suffice it to say that I cancelled the appointment.
Sorry for the rant. Even if no one reads it, it felt good to write it!!
