Hey Elliemae. Down here in Holland. AND YES lovely temps. How bad was the storm your way?

I have a huge puddle in my back yard now, and I had to fight with my ducks to get them to go to their casa. So here I am in the dark, running around chasing them stupid ducks all over their pen, yelling at them in spanish to hurry up, got to the house, hurry up, lets go, time for bed. There were several "F" words in there in spanish too, cuz I wanted them to know I was getting mighty ticked off. SO did not phase them. SO, I went over to their boat pool and started to lift it up, and BAM! There feathered rear ends hauled it to their coop. They hate when I move that thing. Scares the bejezus out of them. LOL. I am so EVIL!

Again, has anyone tried the manna-pro leg mite spray?

Matt, they whipped thru here, in and out in about 10 minutes. Dumped a bunch of water, a little thunder, a bunch of wind, now the sky is clear. I really hope it stays that way. We had tornado watch for a while, and then Allegan had the warnings where they issues an emergency alert. Hope nothing happened down yonder that way.

no, but we have had hail and heavy rain. It's done for now. Stay safe.

Robin, you are most welcome.

I have never heard of it. I just use vaseline.

I know Spring has arrived, because small dead things started showing up in my back porch room again.

Thanks, kitties! I am totally having that for dinner.

Oh yes. Our barn cats have been very active in sharing. Today's delicacy is mouse. Yum.

Terro. Nasty stuff, but it works.

We used this in our old house once. Took care of the little ants no problem.

Snowflake, I have had very good luck using chamomile tea bags, and so have the two people to which I have in the past recommended it. One of them had already been to the doctor and taking medication, but was frustrated with how slowly it was working. He used the tea for a day and it cleared immediately. This was my father-in-law, and he afterward declared that he would never be going to the doctor for pink eye again.

When I did it, I needed only to do it 3 times or so over the period of one day and it was gone. There is only one thing I have seen rid a person of pink eye faster, and unless you've got some breastmilk handy, I would try the tea.

If you want to give it a try, first be sure that chamomile is the only ingredient in your tea, I should not wish to place peppermint on my eye! Make yourself a cup of chamomile tea, remove the tea bag, and gently squeeze some of the excess water from it. Hold it on your eye for 10 minutes or so, and repeat the process every few hours or so. The way I had learned to do this was with the tea bag as hot as you can stand it, but I have since read that many people use it after has cooled. Personally, I found that the heat was in itself a relief. You can, of course, also drink the tea.

Snowflake, I did this once for my daughter. She had come home on a Friday with a nicely pink eye and I couldn't get her in to the doctor to get anything for it so I looked up natural ways to help it and this was one of the ways. I soaked a bag every so often and had her hold it to her eye for about 10 minutes. Cleared it right up.

It was raining very hard with some Lightning and Thunder while I was running back and froth from the milking parlor to the calve's hutches 3 times at work. I had to bottle feed 3 calves, and they need 2 bottles each, so I had to make a trip for each calves. By the time I was done, I was sorta wet. Looks like the storm is almost done in MI. I saw a beautiful sunset.
