Hi everyone, I've been busy the last few days and have missed a lot.
First off I want to express my deepest sympathy to BY BOB over the postal fiasco and the loss of his new chicks. Words do not begin to describe my anger at the post office over what I'm calling negligence.
I'm currently in back to school mode as school starts back up the 13th and as of right now even though covid is rampant in Kentucky virtual is not being offered. So it was lovely this past Saturday to get a notification in the mail that my daughter's shot record is out of date and she can not set foot on school grounds until it is taken care of. Fine simple fix and made a dr appointment for Tuesday. We spent 3 hours there waiting only to finally be told that due to computer systems down state wide they could not pull up her record to see what she needed. They thought she might need 2 boosters, but were not sure. They even told me that it would be safe to give them to her even if she didn't need them but with systems down could not print off a updated copy to give to the school so they chose not to administer the shots. They were supposed to call me by noon the following day and if she needed them could just walk in anytime. I heard nothing Wednesday and started repeatedly calling Thursday only to be told I had to wait until the nurse had time to access the system and they would let me know. They did, 20 minutes before the office closed yesterday, yup she needs the shots come in Monday. No big deal, until 3 this afternoon. My sister who lives in the house and works at the hospital tested positive for covid. We are now in quarantine. Health department is supposed to call Monday to give us official instructions on how long and what to do. I do know one thing though, I can breath a bit on the shot record because regardless thanks to my sister she is not going back when school starts.
If everyone could say a prayer for my sister I would really appreciate it. This hit fast, she was fine last night although tired. It didn't seem out of the ordinary as several in her department are out with it and she has been working overtime the last 2 weeks to cover their shifts. She woke up this morning with a headache, sore throat, nausea and body aches. Suspected strep throat as she is prone to it and that is how it starts with her. By noon though she started running a fever and when she left to get tested was already 102. Her breathing is still good and right now only has minor coughing. As long as her fever stays under control and it does not affect her breathing she can stay home, the minute that changes she and mom are emergency room bound.

Odin be his name. Anyways I sat down on the ground to hang out with my turkeys and Odin comes up to me and starts softly pawing my hand witch was resting on the ground. I was like oh how cute he wants to be held. So I picked him up and put him on my lap and he sat right down. I'm just going on talking to everyone. The turkeys and Chicken Lady and my husband says you need to watch him he's up to something look at his tail feathers. I responded oh he's just puffing up because everyone is so close to me. Well a few minutes go by and Odin starts to drift off to sleep and I pick him up and place him on the ground next to me. He stands up and starts softly pawing my leg. So I put my hand down again to pick him up. Well I finally figured out what he was up too. I left my hand on the ground and he slowly stepped on my hand and slowly squated down and started trying to mate with my hand. My husband yelled and said watch out he's got some stuff going on back there and I pulled my hand back and seen the mess Odin deposited on the ground. Pour guy. So now I have to watch where I put my hands down and make sure I pay closer attention because this is not a good habit for Odin to start.
