Ok, here is the church. I apologize for the poor quality, we kept moving while I was shooting and I did not want to be disrespectful.

good quiet evening,, Annie is working, both dogs are outside and it is peaceful ..

somebody asked what to do with extra raspberries ? make wine.. the best wine I ever made was wild raspberry..

I set 17 guinea eggs tonight.. the guinea on the path is on her nest, so those eggs will stay there until she gives up the nest.. I am sure her clutch is growing each day ..

think I will just lurk for awhile..

OMG, so feel so lucky. So sad to hear about a wrecked church. I went out last night to close up the chickens, the wind blew the door closed and took the five pound rock with it. 14 chicks outside. It had just started pouring. I found 13, but couldn't find the last pullet. Finally found her up in a window. Had a towel and dried her off all are fine.

New chicks are good, one still can't walk. Now there are only 24. Hoping to get a couple extra, I hate holding a dying chick. Bad first experience, but well that's life. At least my polish and faverolles made it.

Good evening good people!!

Colton, so sorry you lost so many of the new chicks. It happened to me SEVERAL times with my order from Ideal Hatchery in TX. They reshipped two more times... I think..... Had dead chicks in every order !!! They blamed the post office because half of the box was dead and they said the PO must have packed them to tight and they didn't get air.

So for those of you following my medical saga I called the Pulm doctor Tues to see if he would reorder the oximetry meter because I only had 4 mins 28 secs of low oxygen and needed 5 minutes to qualify (Ins) for oxygen at night. It was only 5.5 hours of sleep recorded so my thought was if I sleep a total of 8 hours it might just go over the 5 minutes. Nope, he said if I wanted to have oxygen I could pay for it myself !!! WTH !! Ok, so that was depressing enough, have to wait til Aug 28th to see him personally and on the 23rd go for another CT scan which I have no idea what he is looking for and also have another pulmonary function test the same day... This ought to be interesting seeing as two sleep studys came up with two different diagnosis's.
Anyway today I went for a heart stress test. No I didn't run on the treadmill... I would have been stumbling all over !!! LOL

I stopped for lunch, and almost went to Foster and Smith (would have maybe run into you VickyW) but was to pooped so just drove home.
On my way I got a call from the cardiologist himself. He said my stress test showed a reduced blood flow to the top of my heart.... didn't ask anything further. He said given my history and my symptoms he wants to do a heart Cath but can't do it until the 19th. I had one in 2010 and I had only a 30 percent blockage (they don't worry unless it is 70)

So... we shall see if that is a wild goose chase or what ????

ET got a call today, he can go into work for the next two days. I have to go to the Spay clinic on Friday in Rhinelander and am suppose to go to a wedding on Saturday. Think I am going to ditch the wedding though.

So looks like I'll be doing all of his chores tomorrow but Friday I can't, so he'll just have to get up earlier I guess because I can't do them quick enough to get to the spay clinic. I'd never get there in daylight.

Starting to look like I need to downsize... on the birds that is.

ETA... the scary part is right after I hung up from making the cath appointment the office called back and said the doctor wants to make sure I'm taking my aspirin every day. Yep, I'm taking the 325 mg for pain.... doing double duty I guess !!

Does anyone know why my paragraphs aren't separated like when I typed them.... It's all running together. It's enough following my posts but then running everything together I'm sure doesn't help


Wow, what a shame about the church and everything else that was totaled.


ETA... it did it again. Some kind of contagious computer bug that CC is spreading ??? LOL

Hi all--been trying to keep up...Today I had a 12 hour shift...the weird thing is I am much more awake now that I usually am! What is up with that? I really think that the more you do, the more you can do, and the more you can get done! Well DUH--just read that statement...of course if you move more you get more done...but why are you less tired than if you sit around THINKING of what you SHOULD be doing? If I am on here a bunch and dont HAVE to do much but feed...I am so tired by now it's not funny. I am heading out shortly to do chores and not dreading it cause I feel like I still have energy today! WEIRD.

Colton--I hope all works out well with your new babies (and replacement ones). So disheartening to see them when they arrive dead...I dont think I will ever get any more in the mail. Easier with eggs or having the broodies hatch them for sure! It is bad enough when one of those dies.

I must confess that after the camp-out I did not read all the posts...there were 70 some I think...I hope I didnt miss anything too exciting. DH asked about the Fall bash(Southern Style) Is this still happening?

Cind, did your hen turkey ever show up? What about the eggs? Put them under a broody?
I still have ducks hatching...I wonder if they will ever be done?

Cats are crying for their dinner...since I am the last one up I guess I am elected. THen outside...
Nighties all! TerriObringingquaileggsfortheclient'sbreakietomorrow

That's all.
