Thanks everyone for the prayers for my Mom. My dad isn't doing very well with this. If something happens to her I think he would just give up as well. I hope once they get her fluid built back up she'll get back to normal even though that isn't great.
I got my antigen yesterday and it is only good until July. *&*$^+%! I guess I am going to have to do a lot of PT testing in the next few months to get some money re-cooped.
I've created a monster. I went in to feed the cats this morning, and chopper came running. He ate the entire packet of soft food and the cats didn't get any. So I had to put chopper to bed and feed the cats a second time. The newest ducks have now bonded to chopper so now I have three more to keep contained. I think when it warms up the 3 young ones are going out to the duck pen. It's bad enough walking around cleaning up after one duck.
I never even got my chores done yesterday. I sure hope the chicks all did okay. The big ones can pretty much fend for themselves but I normally feed and water the chicks twice a day.
I've got to get some more birds moved outside.
I'll need to run back to town this afternoon as well. I haven't called yet to see how Mom is doing. I thought I'd give the doctor time to see her first so I had some idea of what was going on. I imagine I'll need to pick up my Dad and take him to the hospital to visit.
I had planned to cut wood today but don't know if I'll have time to start.
Daren, hang in there. It will all work out. Things will come back around. In the meantime try to stay out of trouble here!
