[Granny Hatchet]

Have you read these articles that @Sally Sunshine wrote? Definitely worth siting down and read each one very thoroughly (don't skim read, you'll miss too much).

Granny, I sincerely hope the guy from the cemetery gets things done right. That is no way to treat people in general or to disrespect the dead.

I have my fingers crossed for the eggs. I'm eggcited for you!

Casportpony always has the best info or can tell you where to look. Always. So many people on here seem to be genuinely nice.

thank you mrsc, It is wrong what he does. especially offering to put my step-fathers ashes in there. (open it back up) pretty sure that is tampering with a corpse. No pips, rocking, nothing this morning. starting to wonder if they will. this is the start of day 20 . I am not feeling good again.arthritis is a bugger. my back is the worst i guess. when i was sick in the hospital this last time. i really dont know what it was. if they said i have forgotten but the skin on the bottom of my feet is peeling off in very thick layers. I seen this once before in my son. he had undiagnoised strep that turned into scarlet fever despite trips to the er and drs. my friends kids had strep not to long ago. I dont remember a sore throat though. My daughter goes in to surgery tomorrow it will be the second one with this crones. I wish so much i could be with her. I feel a great need to hold her hand. her oldest son (15) will be taking the time off school to care for his 5 brothers. I know that sounds terrible but believe me, he is very capable.they are being tossed from their rental home this month too . so as soon as she is able to travel i do believe i am to have a house full. i dont know how we will survive 6 kids but we will. oh well, life right ? is anyone else having problems with this site as far as freezing or running very slow ? its being a snail for me. other sites are not.

Hope you get to feeling better Granny. What kind of surgery is your daughter haveing? Just had a very close call with my daughter she is a diabetic and went into ketoaciddosis she is doing better now thank God and should be getting out of ICU today.
Really want to see pics of those little peeps when they hatch!

When is day 21? Just think you might have a house full of kids for the holidays!

today is the start of day 20, i hope they hatch but im not holding my breath. i havent seen any thing from them. been sitting here playing hatching videos for them . hahahaa hoping the sound of new chicks will get them going. mt daughter is have part of her intestines removed. we wont know how much until the surgeon is in there. this is the second time for her. A house full of kids sounds great ! for about 2 hrs. I truly cant handle more then that. I will be hiding in my room . hahaa lets just hope her husband finds a job quickly and a house for them. I hope they can stay here but i have a feeling he wants to go back to S.D. they have lived there before.

not good news i am afraid. i did a quick candle and looks like 2 are dead, no movement and one is struggling against the inner membrane . no internal pips at all.

Saying prayer for your daughter Granny. Don't give up on the peeps! I've had some not move or peep and they hatched just fine.
