Back from running some errands. Stopped at TSC. They are still running chick days. It's been going on since February. At least the chicks were being taken care. Not like it was last year after I quit. I didn't buy any.

Stopped at work to pick up some more paperwork for the surgeon to fill out. Talked to my manager a bit. She was surprised to see me. She made to hug me but pulled up short, COVID thing or company policy, IDK. Anyway, she was happy to see me, said I was missed. And my job is waiting for me whenever I'm cleared to work. It will be Aug 17/18 when I see the cardiologist and surgeon.

So for the time being I am off and relaxing at home. (Tractoring is relaxing BTW). I'll be sky watching every night hoping to see the comet and the dual meteor showers. Everything is going well. I feel like a million bucks. Going back out to give the 2 flocks some treats.

Be well my friends. Enjoy it all.

Wow- your fast recovery is impressive! Just be all the health country living!

I get to celebrate tonight. All 5 of my young girls went up on the main roost bar for bed without any help from me. Took just over a week and blocking off their old area the last two days. A couple of the older hens weren't to happy about it but I think the are starting to adjust.

My daughter and granddaughter both have goldies. Both are so sweet. I have a Cavalier that is the most loving thing ever! My neighbor got a lab for their kids that have been begging for a dog forever. That girl was mean as a puppy. When it was 10 weeks old the kids were playing with it and it growled at them. It wasn't a playful growl either. I said right away "That's not good" Kid asked why, and told her she shouldn't be growling like that. Dog bit the kids numerous times. Gave it away. Bit their kids and now, last I heard, is with a kidless couple. Ya just never know. Son has a pit that is so sweet. My now 6 yr old granddaughter can control Hazel with ease.
By the way, my grandson will be born tomorrow, 3 weeks early. Showing small, so say some prayers for him to be strong and healthy.

Thinking of your daughter and grandson, hope everything goes well

Glad to hear that Randy, hopefully you will feel better overall now that they fixed you up.

I do feel a lot better for the most part. Still have random flare ups of pain spots but they quickly dissipate. A little bit of soreness here and there but that is to be expected.

The bigger issue is that I have been left unsupervised...

New Toy!

New Toy!

Yes indeed.
Something of a project to restore and refurbish this old hay wagon. I hope to have it done in time for the autumn festivals and hay rides. The extra bonus is the 1968 license plate. That's the same year as my old car. The plate is in excellent condition. How lucky was that?

My gawd those tires are positively amazing to still hold air as well! Rubber seems to of survived better from back then eh?
