Husband spoke to Alan, the contractor. He said he was trying to get his worker to get out of bed! The other day it was a flat tire. People just have no work ethic these days. They might show up tomorrow, you never know.
I was considering going to the livestock sale at TSC in Danville. I would like to get more bunnies. Husband finally noticed my third bunny because he saw the water bottle on the cage. If i get more bunnies, i need more cages though. And i have a hoop coop to build first.
see I am still just chickens I have no urge for the other things I take care of them as best I can but not sure I could keep up with the others know it hard enough sometimes to drag me out there
I like being outside if i am well. When i am sick i want to curl up in a ball and sleep.
I have to usually resist the urge to sleep during the day otherwise I will not sleep for four days my body clock knows no bounds only get up go do it take pills go to sleep....

Normally my weeks are somewhat busy, but not overly so. This week I've been busier than a one legged man at a butt kicking contest. It's been non-stop.
They did put in our new iron filter, and water softener today. The water looks, and feels really good, but the water still has the odor from the pvc glue. I know it will be fine in a day or two. The old system was such a mess. The previous owners had put in an iron filter, and softener. They undersized the iron filter, so added a chlorine pump. They had 1 electrical socket, and used an adapter to be able to plug all 3 things into the 1 socket. At some point the socket caught fire. They caught it in time, before the fire could burn up the equipment.
The electrician came out, and installed an outdoor double socket, then put a special plug on the softener. The plug, instead of being solid on the back side, had prong holes, so another piece of equipment could be plugged into the back of it, and they could share the same socket, while the filter was on the second socket, by itself. After the electrician came, they called their water guy out. Since the electrical socket is almost centrally located on the concrete pad, and they were afraid of it catching fire again, they had the water guy come and move the equipment further away from the electrical socket by about 4 feet. Instead of removing the old pvc, and running new lines to the new locations, he simply moved everything out, and tied into all the original plumbing, which made a pvc mess.
Later, it was decided that for the chlorine pump to work better, they needed a holding tank. Due to the way the rest of the equipment was sprawled out so far away from each other, he could not put the big holding tank near the rest of the equipment. When he ran the pvc to tie it into everything else, it became a pvc nightmare. Pipes running everywhere, from here, to there, to yonder, then crossing back again, then crossing each other, etc.
When we talked to our water man on Wed., I told him part of the job would be removing all that mess of old pvc, and that I wanted the new equipment closer to the electrical outlets, closer to each other, and made to look neat. When he started, he began to tie into the existing plumbing, and I reminded him that we had discussed it, and him simply tying into the old lines would not work for me. He began cutting out all the old pvc. We ended up with a stack of over 250 feet of pvc, with so many elbows, and such. Now it looks neat, and tidy, like it should.
I went to the Dr. yesterday. They called me today with the results of my blood work, and said everything looked real good. YAY!

It is amazing what we can live with and adapt to!
yes it is but better than nothing at all they tried to put me in a nursing home I refused they said i would cripple myself naw to german for that as long as i can walk motivate I will do for myself 
What a great week you had! I bet it feels great to get so much accomplished and to get a good report from The Dr.
Ron, yes it's nice to get so much done, and none of us were expecting my blood work to be so good. I'm on Ibrance, and it usually lowers the white cell count, and platelet count. My counts were all fine.
