My leukemia's back.

The scary thing is, Rachel's not far off!

But do you think she is far enough off that she needs her meds adjusted ?

 

[Blooie]

Hmmmm....allow me to ponder that inquiry for a bit, Sour!

 

[sourland]

We may need a professional consult on this.

 

[Blooie]

I concur, and defer to my esteemed colleague to put together an unbiased consulting team.

'Esteemed' - would that be me ? Yesterday I was told that I was an A Whole.

 

[Blooie]

But you are an esteemed one - that should make you feel much better!

But you are an esteemed one - that should make you feel much better!

Well, yes, yes that does now that you bring it to my attention.

Who said that?

to them.....

unless of course it was The Princess, in which case I'm sure she had a very good reason and you are now very sorry.



Funny thing is, you all don't know how much I've been on the phone with The Med Dose Nurse at the clinic-----but not "those" kind of meds lol. Just my immune suppressants. Maybe I need to look into something else. I swear, this prednisone is making me crazy. Probably a good thing I'm not working. I'll just stay at home, mutter to myself, post weird things on the Interwebz, and butcher poor helpless roosters. Speaking of which, I decided to do 4 today. I have them plucked, but it started raining so I brought them inside to gut and finish. Taking a quick break to rest the hands and get something to eat (Prednisone, of course I want something to eat).

Today is also Hatch Day, I have 8 baby chicks so far! I'll try to post a pic after I'm done with the roosters. They're just a random mix of eggs, so i have different colors, very cute!

Rachel, hats off to you for finishing off 4. I find that 3 at a time is the best I can do. But, in the house????? That's even grosser than brooding chicks in the house! Yep, I think that prednisone is doing some funky stuff to your mentation!!! Love ya, anyways!!!

It actually wasn't too bad. I had them all plucked. I've started using the poultry shears and splitting the bird up the front. Just open, cut around the vent and the tail bone, and everything just kind of scoops out. Makes it easy peasy to get the lungs out, and just a bit of knife work to separate membranes, etc from the rib area. Then part them out, into the big pot in salted water and out to the extra fridge for a few days.
