have you ever been checked for lyme? You have been sick lately.

Yeah, and last time i asked to be checked the doctor said you didn't have the bulls eye mark so no point checking you. So glad i am done with her.
But i think its a combination of allergies, sinus infections and flu that have caused my issues.

Nope, you could never do that... I meant are you sure you don't look like Pat Benatar?

I don't. Not even a little bit. I desperately wanted to look like her when I was a kid tho.

Duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duct duck .. GOOSE!

So we are getting ready to hit the road for our little road trip...... Today we are heading to Traverse City.... We are gonna stay a at our son's house. He's in Tennessee so it'll be a quiet night..... Then Saturday we head down to Ann Arbor spend that day with my wife's Aunt.....

Be safe out there & have a great time!!!

Good Morning Pond! I just discovered a tick imbedded in my shoulder. Cripes i went shopping most of yesterday!

OMG! I HATE when that happens!!! You'll never see a crazier city girl screaming & running thru the house trying to get away from herself, like me with a tick.

have you ever been checked for lyme? You have been sick lately.

NOOOOO!!! Not the Blyme Lyme!!!

Made it to the bridge so far...... Gonna stop in Mackinaw City for lunch.
Hope you all are having a wonderful Good Friday.....

I always wanted to go there. Are you eating fudge???

The lady I got the cats from suggested motes just like a lot of you guys did. She said get mini pie pans........ blah! blah! blah! blah! blah! .... She lost me at "mini pie". Man, I used to love those things! There's an old bakery up in LA that used to make them. As a kid I'd day dream about getting one of everything! If the traffic wasn't so bad, I'd consider going up there & getting a few.

Good morning! I'm doing that thing where I don't sleep. Again.

The Bator is full of peeping chicks with just a couple more to hatch. This whole batch gets vaccinated this morning in about 5 hours.

Maybe something in the air? I've been doing the not sleeping thing all week. I just picked up some melatonin today. I hope it helps.

Good morning, Pond Life.



A lone wiggler is a sad wiggler.

@WVduckchick, Imitrex worked well for me (actually the generic Sumatriptan because of my cheapass insurance). You do need a prescription to get it. Since my cataract surgery my migraines are FAR less frequent and also less severe.

I have the generic, too. I just figured it would be more recognizable if I called it by the brand name.

I've never discussed my migraines with a doctor. Of course, I avoid doctors, so that could be the reason. I bet my eye doctor could help though. I see her more often.

I had never talked to my Dr. about it either until she was sitting in my hospital room the next morning...

Ladder Man would kill me if I committed suicide. But yes, sometimes the pain is enough to consider considering it.

That pain where at first you're afraid your head is going to explode, and then you're wishing it would?

Yeah, and last time i asked to be checked the doctor said you didn't have the bulls eye mark so no point checking you. So glad i am done with her.

Yeah, that's a nasty combination.

@LittleLakePhil - Lost your quote. Have a great trip!

We're on our way to spend the weekend with Granddaughter and her parents. She's two, and coming up with new words all the time. Definitely a fun age. We can teach her things and then go home.

Hatch stats:
Best shipped egg hatch ever. Swedish Flower Hens - I set 14, pulled one clear and had 10 hatch. Pretty darn amazing! I experimented with using higher humidity for wonky air cells, and it kept them from growing too much and getting even wonkier.
The flip side of using higher humidity was I had one of my lowest Marans hatch percentages. I'm not terribly concerned about those though. I know how to fix that.
Of course, 100% Silverudd's Blues - those babies are popcorn.
Only 1 CL didn't make it - and I got three little cockerels - hoping one will be pretty enough to replace his papa.
That's all the news for now. Thanks for tuning in.

We are enjoying my day off.

When that happens here someone will say.. squirrel!
You had a squirrel moment!

I can take them a night or two in a row but after that they give me weird, vivid dreams.
