What do you meanby our count.

On the Washingtonians thread?

Or your personal post count?
BYC is doing its winter cleanup and deleting a lot of the chatty threads. So that may explain your personal post count drop. There was a notice a couple days ago.

BTW I'm just answering to see my post count, cause I never get chatty.

I want to chat with you...wanted to ask if , when you were diagnosed with metabolic syndrom, did your doc send you to a nutritionist and did any of them recommend a certain diet for you ?
If so, can you kind of encapsulate it for me ?

Are you going to be able to do the show this week end ?
Is there anyone up there you can travel with ?
If so, let me know and I will bring you the antique flying sauca-bator

according to every one who sees it, they work excellent !
I am sorry your babies were lost

it happens to the best of us...and we can always do more !!

I can't go to the show as I work weekends

I tried to get it off but with the new schedule change I was not able too. Maybe someone from here is going and can bring it back for me?

Find out and let me know...DIY is close to you...ask who is close to you and let me know

Gosh! What is going on lately? From medical conditions, to job losses (or potential), to lost hatches- we're a sad, sad group of late.
I should have clarified that I WANT to go to the show, I want to bid on Cindy Smith's white araucana. I'm trying to convince myself and hubby that we could make it but then I have to look at how much this excursion will take out of my 'free time'. We still have to move furniture and set up the extra bedroom for my mother's visit next week (we use it as an office so that means moving everything out & other stuff in!), get the winter coop ready, holiday stuff, volunteering commitments, etc. Ugh! Not enough time in the day.
So set me as tentative... I'll update on here if I'm leaving to head down to the Show.

This manuka honey...where does it come from ? A different breed of honey bee ?
Honey bees that dine on melaluca blossoms ?
It is very intrigueing !

Oh, & I'm close to Rainwolf too. So if I do come to the show and there is room in whichever vehicle I take, I can take the incubator.

12/9/10 doesn't work for me for a coffee visit. Can we think about the week later? Or start in January once the holiday stress is over?

Serisouly though I would LOVE to visit and go see ReiMiraa's flock, and then see some babies. That would be a fun challange to figure out the parentage.

i would be glad to have visitors where i can talk about chickens and not seem weird. it would be nice, you could visit leavenworth. if you do come let me know. most of the time i am now stuck here in pullman. but if i am there i can give you eggs and free fruit from the fruitstand if you come in may. asparagus.
hey, at the same time here i am drooling over your flock Illa.between you and me we will eventually have every breed. though mine are hatchery and not "pure breed" my standard is that they live in the conditions here, look really cool, and lay eggs. not that i am counting eggs.... oh i wonder if you can butcher hens for stewing and donate the meat to the community cupboard? mom gave them eggs yesterday and were surprised and thrilled. makes me happy to see that i can help some people in the winter and then charge alot for eggs from city people during the summer. i should charge more in summer to try and cover the cost of donating them in the winter....

if chickens could talk and demand welfare, well jerry springer couldn't handle it!!!!


went to the shrink today to finish a test. for ADHD. and the results were interesting. i am going to retest in january when no add medecine is in me. the results were flipped flopped. i tested worse with the medication, but without the medication i do not sleep as well or focus as well because i have so many thoughts going in my head it would make most people insane. the fact that i am obsessive about my chickens and have a few more compulsive thoughts/thinking possibly means i am OC. then the non verbal IQ test uh.... i was over 130. but the last result which is why i am seeing this shrink again is because the tests say i am bi polar. since the tests were done on a computer he wants to chat with me to see what definition i fit. Currently i am a riddle for him. which is great, i always considered my self confusing. shrinks love puzzles. with add medecine i do better in certain ways sleep better eventhough it stimulates, it blanks my mind/ one thought at a time. and appitite is not really there, and with out i do better in certain ways but i do not sleep because i am always thinking and thinking, and i make more mistakes.... so yes a puzzle. maybe try a different add medecine, not many left for me to try. or try increasing the dose in the morning so its stronger. adderall is only a few hours but sideaffects are insonmia and i still feel its affects of a quietened mind.
i am going to sleep. the ambien kicked in...... i am on celexia because my moods became unstable at the beginning of the month and get depressed/homesick and this stuff work well on hormones.
on antibiotics again amoxacillian 875mg pink horse pill.... that has cleared up my tonsilitis fast, its going away faster than if i was to tough it out, this prevented me from fevers..... see the sooner i get rid of this sore throat the better. because next week is dead week. the week for studying before finals. and i want to be as healthy for that .... then on Dec 21 3 days into my break. i get my tonsils removed and i will be down for the count for 2 weeks.... no skiing sad... this means i wouldn't get to work at the ski hill( i do it for fun not the money). sad. and i just got alpine level 1 certified instruction too...

so there is a little snippit of my life lately..... the BYC this thread, is one constant in my life for me while stuck here in pullman.... I have yet to go out and party. i want to but at the same time too afraid.

sorry a little unloading on how my day went. alot been on my mind..... if it is TMI sorry. i prefer to be blunt. this is the past week and month.

Hang in there kiddo you are doing a fantastic job and it is wonderful that you are at school learning about things that will helpt the family business !

It is small, so will not take up too much room.

And it is old, but works great and she sure needs it.
I too have been watching my humidity fly around, it has been so foggy here you can barely see beyond 20 feet...has to be at least 80% humidity...little droplets flying endlessly around are completely visable in front of your face...so I am watching my bator !

 

[Chickielady]

Geeze it takes a couple hours , twice a day to read each post and stay caught up with this thread !
I am waiting to see Illia's Veloceraptors...speaking of Jeff Goldbloom, I will look for that movie "earth girls are easy"
And start my sign today, and I also e-mailed Monica so maybe she can show up Saturday also...so now I have to call Scott back and tell him I will see him Sat not Sun...***Sigh!**** I am exhausted already !!

Why don't you all set a date like the first and third Thursday of every month ?
Then whoever can show up can show up...or maybe move the date every week ?
One week Monday, 2 weeks later make it Tuesday , and so on ?
