I have been stewing in my own juices over the dumbest thing....and no not Bob eating the neighbors yard stuff lol.
The past few nights something has made a sleep disorder pop up I havent in 25 years easy..
Im having full conversations, fixing my hair, telling people to gtfo of my office just having a good time in my sleep.
I swear though if hubs asks if im on drugs or need an exorcism one more time im going to snap.
Each and every time ive woken up he's been staring dead at me.
Im the first one he's ever seen.
I think it is hilarious but he's taking the fun out of it!:barnie

I'm a sleep talker too! :highfive: My youngest one also does, but we've never done up my hair while sleeping. I'm going to agree that it's probably b/c of the stress from your family stuff going on. I hope you can get that all settled so you can get some good sleep.

Our neighbor paid $1500 to get their minpin's leg fixed after the other one knocked her off the carport, then they put a fence on that side to keep it from happening again. Expensive lesson, but it was a breeding pair so they didn't have much choice

Update: Lizbeth has decided broody is a great past time, Luci is still an adorable silkie getting come and wattles, and still has bites of vertigo, and Tinsley is learning to get his spur nubs filed to keep them from getting problematic, he's also crowing, but quietly and once every few days around 2-ish pm. We're hoping since he's an indoor roo and can't stand up super tall, that he won't get full volume. The other thing I hope it's that since his flock is always near and there's no danger from predators, that he will keep the crowing at it's current frequency and volume. The pigeon, parakeets, dogs, rats and cat are doing really well. We do plan on adding to our rat mischief.

Yes, Cappy, she is a rex, and is a 4 yr old retired breeder. She also has foot and leg issues from crappy care, but is still a lover. She does occasionally flip me off, but only because, and after, I give her the pain medication to help with the chronic pain from a messed up ankle due to the poor conditions when she was being bred. Other than that she is a sweetheart and actually enjoys being held when I give her attention before and after meds.

We're going on Oct 3 to look at the breeder and her dogs that she's planning on breeding for the next litter that we are interested in. We plan on finding out everything we can about previous liers and any early retirement of working dogs and sending video of the breeding pair to our vet for real time feedback from him. This will be the Anatolian Shepherd for my daughter's mobility assistance dog. The litter is planned for next year, either mid spring or early summer. If we like what we find out and get good feedback from the vet we will put a retainer down for first pick female.

In other news, I need to go to the local college and sign paperwork needed for financial aid so I can get my nursing assistant certification (convoluted sideways and backward step, as I'm a medical assistant), and then go after my RN. I'm too smart for, and not challenged enough, being a medical assistant, and need a little more responsibility and autonomy that comes with RN, plus I need to make enough money to make up for the change in finances when my husband retires in a year or two.

DD#4 will be getting her license in a week or two, and is a very good driver (which is nice cuz I taught her to do as I teach, not as I do, lol), and will be getting my dad's 4x4 Blazer next summer.

DD#3 will be working on getting a permit next year so we can renovate the garage for her.

I'm waiting on a quote from a surveyor so I can dispute the property line with the idiot building his house next door. I'm hoping the original survey information is on the 4 pages that are not available online, i.e., on microfiche at the county office for land development. I am trying to have an amicable relationship with the neighbor, and it seems that he realizes he started off on the wrong foot, because he's going to let me work with the fence builders when he hires them. We'll see what happens.

Other than a couple other projects, that's about it for updates.​

Wow, you've had a super busy summer. Glad you're doing ok and Yay for the new pets & the education stuff. I hope you're able to find an awesome job when you're done. Your bun is sooo cute. She looks super fluffy and soft. I swear your neighbor's house has been being built for years. Are they ever going to finish it?

You have been very busy!
Congrats? On the crowing.
Good of you to take on a needy rabbit. So many get passed by because of issues like yours has.
:woot On the mobility dog.
I am hoping you can find the survey info easily.


Edited to add...
Awesome that you are continuing your education to better things. :highfive:

Puppy sitting went ok.
I am worried about mom dog. She seems to already be drying up.
Those pups aren't putting on proper weight now. The humans have increased the supplemental feedings.

Poor thing. Are they going to keep breeding her?
Whenever my cats would have babies I usually ended up bottle feeding them. I don't think I ever had a mama who could nurse them long enough, except once my cousin's cat trekked through the woods and had her kittens in our garage. They were the biggest fattest fluffiest kittens I've ever seen. By the time we realized she was in the garage with them they were a couple months old. IDK how she managed it, but she was a great mother.

I don't know. I would say probably yes. She is the one with better temperament.

I will be relieved when the end of October gets here. Then hubs puppy will be here and I can give individual attention.
