Well I am back home finally....it is snowing to beat the band out there...now way were we making it to the post office. So here is what happened....

First the receptionist yelled at me "Where have you been? Why have you lost more weight? He will not be happy, sit down and I will tell him your are here"

Billing clerk and usually sweet gal comes out to go to mailbox and sees me, instantly turning into a raving shrew "WHERE have you been? It has been 2 months at least and why are you skinnier than when you left here last? Dr. Carter will not be pleased and I am going to tell him myself in just a minute"

Dental Tech comes to door and calls my name, I stand up and she starts in on me...."Why have you not been back? How much weight have you lost? nevermind I will weigh you myself, come along. Dr. is going to be ticked off when he gets a look at you now step on this scale, oh lovely look at that 87 lbs, you have lost 8 lbs well you can explain it to him come along"

she sits me in the chair and everytime I try to explain she says "explain it to him because he is gonna have a fit"

Dentist comes in and says "Well Well Mrs. Smith, 87 lbs are we? You were supposed to have been back here over 2 months ago and now you are smaller than you were before. 2 teeth hurting are they? Well let me see but first stand up" I looked at him like he had lost it but stood up and he started in on me again about my weight and blah blah.

Then he looks at the bottom two that are hurting and says....I give 2 ampules to kids up to age 14 and you are no bigger than they are so, you are gonna feel some of the procedure. I am doing your impressions, making your top temporary denture, pulling the top three teeth and these two bottom ones and you will get no more than 3 ampules of local and you'd best hope that is enough because you are getting no more.

Soooooo I go back at noon tomorrow if the roads are clear enough to get to Lexington, get 5 teeth pulled, 3 top, 1 lower right and 1 lower left and get a top plate slapped in so I should be a real joy tomorrow evening.

Finally, I told him about the nasty sinus infection I had been through and about my sister...he softened a little after that and he understood that I could not eat properly and thus the weight loss but he was still on my case about the weight. So, I promised him if he would fix my dental problems, I would fix the weight problems. Sooooo that is the deal. Anyone got 5 grand I can borrow in the next 6 months? LOL


I finally got some video loaded from the other day...you can see the Lancelot and Hera and the crew

Janelle, I hope you are back to yourself today.



Now I am retiring to my recliner...Later

Cyn, OR you could start shipping Del and BR eggs! Huh huh huh??? Kathy, thanks for replying to the email. Thanks anyway!

Scott, that is soooooooo nice of you! Hmm, well I'll talk to DM about it. It'd be nice to have my own bator, but then I don't want to get addicted... maybe I can pay for the eggs and have them delivered to your house. How many does that hold?

LH, OMG what's wrong with them? What does your dentist have to do with your weight, anyway? Did I miss something? Geesh, unsensitive people. When I lost my gma I also lost a lot of weight and it's still not back.

Love the videos! Did you know that I stalk your channel? LOL. I cannot find any good chicken youtube channels accept your's. Soon maybe I'll have one! But for now I use photobucket and have a private youtube channel, just for my friends, where I do secret spazzy parodies of songs that are really stupid.

Nick you are so sweet thank you. He is concerned because of my blood pressure and my weight with giving me a local or any ansthesia safely. Sort of like a battle of how much is needed to numb me and how much can be safely given to me. Not to mention, 87 lbs if extremely unhealthy for a 47 year old woman, petite or not.

He just worries because he will not give me more than he feels is safe and yet he does not want me to feel any of the extractions...so it is a fine line to walk on for him and I am used to feeling most of it and am blessed with a high pain tolerance...but pain and too much medication will both raise my blood pressure so it is a danged if you do and danged if you don't scenario. I just hated being barked at by all of them. hahahaha


Thanks, I enjoy catching quick video of them just being or being goofy. LOL

LH, am I going to have to make cheesecakes and mail them to you?? I can't imagine being 87 lb-I might have been that small in 2nd grade. It's closer to being over, though. I cancelled my appt on the 10th due to projected weather so will be going March 1. Let's hope spring is here by then!

The last Del hatched just now. You know, I'm not mailing eggs anymore. I have only two Del hens and little Tasha so it doesn't make sense to even try. Honestly, I'm ready to rehome Ellie and Georgie (though Ellie's eggs are really weird since she began laying post-molt), but DH probably wouldn't hear of it. Georgie is super affectionate toward him, but then, so are most of the others.

Oh, I think my black Rock, Emily, is trying to go broody again. Maybe this time, she won't abandon the eggs at Day 17.

Ladyhawk,
What is the deal with those videos .... did you forget my Fattie and Cannonball should be center stage? Get on it, woman!

By the way, I do love your videos!

Cyn, I keep forgetting to ask you .... which one of your girls used to lay the pointy egg? Was that a Delaware? I have one girl that consistently lays a pointy egg.
 
Pointy egg... hehe. LH, okay, that makes sense. But they are still jerks. Let's split one of Cyn's cheesecakes, how about it?

Where is Beth? I haven't seen her on here in a while.

Cyn... oh Ellie, oh Ellie... what every will you do with her? *whistles and skips*

Kathy, since we're talking about how we love LH's videos, FYI, I love your page! Well, your pages!

Kathy....brooder is GREAT. In fact I built 2....right now only have chicks in one, 9 lil' Col rocks, but I have 6 more due Wednesday. trying to hatch every egg I get from that Canadian Trio right now

Nick....trust me....my 'bator can hold more eggs than your yard can hold chickens. I think it will easily hold 180 at a time!!! Right now I am only setting 6-10 a week, so I have PLENTY of room. You just let me know

Started RAINING here......only got one coop cleaned and litter changed. This winter weather doesn't seem to let up long enough to get the "basic" chores done. Calling for rain changing to snow tonight....hope they are WAY wrong....
 
Yard full o' rocks :

Awesome!

Kathy, what kind of bator do YOU use?​
 
I hear ya, Scott. This weather has put a hold on many of my chores. Feed and fresh water are the priority at this point.

Nick.... you really should take up Scott's offer, I think. Don't be offended, but this is what I see you doing ..... making plans for way to many chickens for your backyard. You said your primary goal is to sell eggs. Honestly, I would suggest you simply purchase some sex link pullets. You would get plenty of eggs that way. It would be less costly, in the long run. Maybe you should forgo that incubator. Just my opinion.

Yep, maybe that's right. Did you read everyone's posts about it a few days ago? Well I am only expanding my flock a little. My main goal is to get eggs, but the reasons that I'm picking the breeds that I picked is for their egg color. Did you know that you can sell a dozen blue eggs for $8 here? But yes, I will certainly consider Scott's offer. But I just think that it would be really great to see some chicks hatch before my eyes. I haven't had that experience, ya know.
