Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

maybe. I haven't gotten sick nearly as often since I moved from the elementary school to the high school.

Pretty sure it's enviormental she's just exposed to a lot of germs.....I have only had one cold in the past three years......I just got over it..... But I don't get sick often with colds.
I do get my shares and maybe a little more than my share of stomach bugs though.
Which is good.... Because with my asthma and COPD they about kill me.
Also i noticed since I retired I'm almost never sick at all. Just not exposed to as much... No touching germy steering wheels.... Not making that nightly stop at the grocery store touching germy shopping carts.... etc.
The first five years after my BMT my immune system was so weak I caught everything.... But since then it's been pretty normal. With one exception I get infections real easy and bad ones..... I've come close to losing body parts more than once.... Hands, toes, fingers.

I gotta get ready and plow today.... Hopefully truck starts with no issues.... I've been having problems with it cuz the has went bad.....I replaced both fuel lines last week..... Did a professional job on a beater plow truck.
But I can't do half azz .... Added a bunch of fresh gas....
So hopefully it'll fire right up.....I usually like to put the charger on her for half an hour just to make sure she's fully fully charged.

We had another raccoon attack yesterday morning on our quarantine pen in the carport. This is a heavy-duty hardware cloth "tractor" with only the tiniest space between the top "hatch" and the walls (not even an inch). Somehow the creature was able to slide his paw in and grab the comb of one of our "replacement" 55's and give it a yank. The force of the yank fractured his beak as it slammed him into the hatch (not a clean break and he still seems to be able to eat) and the raccoon ate the nubs off his comb!
Thankfully, he was able to get away and seems to be doing okay.
