My leukemia's back.

Just popping in to say I hope you have all had a very happy Christmas and wishing you all a happy and healthy New Year. Lost a few chickens this year as they are all getting old now, only 10 left and 3 of them are Roosters so I have an occasional egg when my monster chicken doesn't get to eat them before I remove them from the coop. She is only alive as she looked after one of my debilitated chickens a while ago but despite every attempt to deter her she continues to eat eggs! I will be looking to buy some young chickens in the Spring when the weather is warmer!

It is good to hear from you!

My two oldest DDs had head lice over a couple of years in elementary school. I too found that the medicated pet shampoo worked much better than rid

I'm going ..back on posts where I was gone for a while. Had to respond on this one. Mayonnaise! Back in the early 90's my kids got lice. I was devastated! Everyone was saying the medicated shampoo wasn't working because it had been used so much. Kind of like certain medications after a while I. So, mayonnaise was suggested. Worked great. Smothered those creepys!

Perhaps but maybe she didn't want anyone to protect her from herself this time. IIRC you pulled her out of bad situations in the past. It is hard on you to not have had the ability to do so this time. She didn't give you that option for unknown reasons.

She was crying for help...i just couldn't see it.
She tried but couldn't get the truth out she was so afraid i would leave her at the end.
I wouldn't have....i would Have gottenher the help she needed.... but whether she would have been able to stay clean is another story.... she quit drinking and things were good again for a while.... then she just switched addictions

Didn't know she was using....?? Some become addicted to the meds the Drs are putting them on for depression.

That is so sad, especially since you helped pull her out of bad situations in the past. There are so many "woulda, coulda, shoulda if only I'd known" things in life. Keep working day to day.

Didn't know she was using....?? Some become addicted to the meds the Drs are putting them on for depression.

And bizarrely some of them lead to suicidal thoughts. WHY would they use such drugs for a depressed person who potentially already has such thoughts? I'm pretty sure one of my Mom's best friends was on one of them. It was probably 20 years ago (Mom died in 2003), her friend went for a daily walk. One day she didn't show up at home when her husband expected her so he followed her normal route, didn't find her. She had gone the other way to downtown, into a hotel that had several floors, up the elevator and jumped off the balcony into the lobby to her death. Must have been just a horrible thing for the people present. Of course no one had a clue she was suicidal.
