We do not have any children, we would love them but have not been blessed so far. We have 5 mules (Kit, Belle, Sadie, Tillie, and Tammy), 5 rabbits ( Bucky, Lulu, Lola, and 2 that are not yet named ( it's a process for me)) 2 dogs (lillie is a boston terrier and jethro is a rat terrier/beagle/mini pin mix), 4 pigs, 2 steers and 2 donkeys (Abby and Annie). I hope I don't offend anyone by saying that the pigs and steers don't have names really but we affectionately call them food names such as bacon, sausage, t-bone........ well, I'm sure you get the picture. Cracking me up on the leash thing

I am married to my high school sweetheart. We have been married for four years but have been together for 17 years total. We live on a small amount of acreage that is next to his parent's farm. We love to farm and raise most of our own meat and we also have gardens. We have around 70 chickens right now but that will go down to around 50 this fall when we dispatch the older ones. The older hens are australorps and black stars and the older rooster is an ameracauna that was a bonus chick from Murray McMurray. The pullets and young roosters are buff orpingtons. I had silkies at one time but a coon got in their pen one night and they are no more. Anyway, sorry, you said a little and here I am being a bucket mouth. I am shy in person but not so much on a computer.

welcome to Granny's Hoosier.I married my high school sweet heart too.51 years ago..
 
Yeah, forgot about the 5 turkeys and 4 guineas. Except for the rabbits and dogs all the other animals are shared with the in-laws. Also about your breathing problem...... This sounds weird but my family swears by it. Fry some onions until they are soft, put them in a dish towel and fold the dish towel enough to keep the onions in. Rub some vicks on your chest and then pin the dish towel with the onions in it inside your shirt, up against your chest. Or you can lay down to keep them against your chest. Not sure of the length of time you should do this because we do it before bed and go to sleep that way. Stinks to high heaven. I just noticed the post about you not having any vicks. I'm sure it will work without it.
