The Old Folks Home

[Alaskan]

We always have a balloon fest in October. I took my grandkids a couple of years ago. When the balloons started gassing up the 10 year old girl jumped into my arms hysterical and I had to carry her out of the area before she calmed down.

Too loud? Or was it the flames?

I think it was both together. We were up in front when suddenly they turned the gas up. It took about 2 second and I had my arms full. Actually no one has ever mentioned wanting to go back.

I remember the first time I saw one close.... it surprised me how loud it is when they turn on that fire.

Oh I hear ya!

I'm sure I'll know more after Wednesday as far as 'what's next'. Yes, a GI visit and a colonoscopy for sure but I've been doing research and there is a form of rheumatic arthritis called Eneropathic Arthritis where the pain starts in your joints and spine before going to your colon. I had a week and a half of excruciating back pain before it suddenly stopped and the bowel pain started. I told my husband that I was betting real money that is what they are going to find wrong with me. What if? Biologics. Humira being the drug of choice. Some go on steroids. Think I'd rather have the Humira. But given the fact that I've been dealing with a 'form' of rheumatic arthritis that nobody seems to be able to pin down and this pretty much fits the symptomology.

I'm on an antibiotic also. Will decide whether or not to continue on Wednesday but I have a feeling he will because I spiked a temp Friday night.

Immodium huh?

And as for months...man I can embrace that !

So what foods would y'all painfully miss if you were told you couldn't eat them again? For me....anything with sugar in it, Fried chicken, Ice cream...my granola bar snackschocolate cake and or brownies. OH! and potato chips.

Hopefully the tests will figure out the problem and treatment!

So @microchick ask me what I was going to name the new guy. Told her earlier nothing had come to mind yet, but I would let her know when one did pop in my mind. How about General Lee. The coop will be Gen Lee's minions, or Gen Lee's Pumpkin Patch.

 

[microchick]

I vote yes!

I'm thinking the one might start laying after the solstice, but I wouldn't be surprised if the other two don't lay until spring.

Since you got them in June I'd bet on eggs in a month give or take. I doubt they'll wait until spring.

Immodium huh?

If you need it long term get it from the pharmacy with a Dr's RX so insurance will cover it. Check with the company, some will cover capsules which aren't OTC but won't cover tablets because they are even though they are pretty expensive.

I've never been up real close but given how well you can hear them when they are over head a decent distance and the hit the gas I can see how they would be deafening in the front row. I hope your DGD eventually recovered.

Oh, I hope you're right!
