Busy, busy day at work today...I'm just getting to catch up on posts.

Everyone,

I need to ask that for right now until further notice that no one ship any more eggs to me.  My son has been diagnosed with Cushing's disease which is caused by a tumor on the pituitary.  We are waiting to get in for an MRI to see how bad it is.  It should have been caught 8 years ago when I first starting taking him to the doctor for his weight, but all they saw was a "fat" kid and said he needed to go on a diet and get more exercise.  They didn't listen when I said he didn't eat junk food, drink sodas or even consume that many calories.  I knew differently because this was a kid that had always been tall and light.  He was always 98 percentile on height and about 25 percentile on his weight through his early years.  Unfortunately we moved away from his pediatrician who would have noticed the difference.  He is now 21 only 5' 4", and finally diagnosed after gaining 150 lbs in about a year and a half. 

I will send all my swaps but until I know what is going to happen and how long the recovery is going to be I don't want to have to deal with brooder chicks after the ones I have coming in right now.

Crystal, I'm very sorry your son is ill. You and your family will be in my prayers. I know I'm only repeating what so many have offered, but if I can do anything, I will happily help.

Boiled peanuts with crab boil.... yummm... and a beer!! 

This is my favorite way to prepare peanuts! Yum!!!

Well some days just stink - Literally - Was candeling eggs a little while ago and had one explode on me and all over the kitchen. Even after cleaning up, I smell like a cross between my daddy's catfish bait and a week old dead skunk.
All of the Choc. orp. eggs stopped development and have a blood ring and half the SFH I had just stopped.
At noon my crazy neighbor called me at school and said I had a chicken in her yard and I needed to come home IMMEDIATELY and the cops were on the way. The principal had to find me a sub long enough for me to come home and put up the chicken. When I got here my Australorp rooster was at the barn walking the fence trying to get back to his hens. Funny part is the fence is 6-8 feet high and his wings are clipped so he can't fly. The only way he could get out is if someone opened the gate. I text her and told her he was up and I needed to get back to work. She told me I needed to check my gate as she thought he could squeeze through. (a whole 3 inches) and the gate is on MY property and the only way she would know is if she came over and looked.
Sorry, just needed to rant.....

I'm starting to think this day needs to just end. My mom failure moment was while making cookies with my 5yo daughter today. I looked down while she was manning the stand mixer like she's done tons of times before and she leaned in a bit to close and her hair got caught in the shaft and whooop! Hair came off like an epilady had gotten too close. No blood, but a 2 inch square patch is now missing the hair on the top! Poor thing! Luckly there is enough for a combover side ponytail. She's terribly embarassed. I almost had a heart attack seeing her head going into the mixer, I've never lept so fast in my life!

Oh My Gosh - I had heard that could happen, but I did not know it could REALLY happen. I hope she is ok. That is much worse that anything that happened to me today......
