    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Oh my!!! Seems like they would have just hit him with glucogon, IM. I have saved a few with it. Only thing I don't like about it, is it takes a bit longer to mix than I'd care for. Well, I guess he's not quite out of the woods yet then. Sorry to hear. My dumb husband doesn't take care of...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    When DH was in ICU, after his heart attack, we so happened to both be in the middle of a novena and we saw no reason to not complete them, so we were both assisting each other with each our respective prayers but DH, always the kidder, was picking on me, while I was trying to say my prayers and...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Its crazy the way spring fever takes us. Its raining, dark and muddy out, but I can't tell you how much I want to load more eggs in the bator, so I get it. I hate watching nurses catheterize patients, because the last few times I witnessed it, it wasn't done properly. Once at work and once in...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Thanks. FEM....I was talking to one of my patients about your situation. Apparently he has a son that just went thru a bi-pass surgery in Florida, so he has been telling me about that for a few weeks now and I indicated that I sometimes hear about a lady with some of my interests who is there...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Well, I have lots of eggs coming from the coop and if I put some eggs to incubate now, I will have a hatch going on, just a few days before Easter and seeings as I can make 10 X's the money with a dozen eggs, if it spends 21 days in the bator, than in the fridge, I'm going for it. Whatever eggs...

    Are we living our dreams?

    I love a few jobs, but the one that makes all my money, right now, has been destroyed by somthing called Obamacare. Well, my godchild just left, after showing me her ultrasound pics. I have just requested to be shown the prospective studio, in the morning. I have already told my godchild we...

    Are we living our dreams?

    It was a false alarm. Don't know what her problem was, but she refused to leave the barn today. The weather was a bit questionable and with her activity, the previous day, I let her have her way. Safer in the barn, if something happens. Her teats are pretty full though. She looks almost...

    Ladies only!!!!!

    Well, glad someone will. I just talked to my middle child and you should have seen the look on her face. She was fine with the idea of making her own, until I told her she'd have to wash them out to reuse......where, or where did I go wrong??? I told her that I complained that one of my girls...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    You know, FEM.....its almost scary reading your journal. (similarities) Well, they are so advanced with cardiac issues now, but it is scary when its your family they dealing with. Drink down a cup of chamomile tea and try to get a good rest. Glad he pulled through the worst part. Best hope...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Well, goat still acting funny and panting, but nothing popped out yet, except a few droppings, even though she frequently bears down. So DS and GS (godson LOL) gets in there with me and put some pallets to bed down possible kids, then digs a deep enough hole to bury a labrador in and fills it...

    Ladies only!!!!!

    I was reading it and love it. But I haven't 'flowered' since sometime over the summer :( Come on you young women.....someone has to give this a shot!!! Confession time: I have used cloth diapers and folded face towels, myself. I figured, if my babies were wearing cloth, what business did I...

    Water

    I have a 250 gallon tank, I have neglected putting near the barn for a long time, but need to. Want to prepare its permanent home first with a slab and then put a small deck to hold the thing, up on, so have some kind of water pressure. My intent was to have nipple waterers in each stall for...

    POWER4PATROITS program

    I hear you on the scams. I was ripped off for a metal bottled water thing. Had to ship everything back and eat it on the S&H. Well, I have tried (not lately) to understand the basics of solar with a dummies book. I don't get it. I'm too dumb. Maybe if I first try to understand electricity...

    cornish rocks

    First hatch of my project. I will see if DS can help me post a pic. Its a little fuzzy butt, with enormous feet. Really need to keep this date in mind and keep some kind of record. But I can't really appreciate what a huge mess of them would cost to raise because I only have one hen to work...

    Are we living our dreams?

    It would be nice if the whole planet was 70F year round. I don't think I'd be very happy too far north, but somewhat....maybe someday. I have only experienced temps around 10F a few times in my 49 years. It kills everything except what we protect. Well, I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt right...

    help please kiddo has an infected chicken pox bilster

    Well, I saw the pic on the tool bar, so here I am. My best guess was impentigo.....indian fire. Well, the good thing, is most of the advice wouldn't have harmed it and you acted and are heading in the right direction. For whatever it is worth, I like salt water to help cure any bo-bos. If...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Thanks. I'm making a deal with myself. Waiting to see what kind of return I will get and thinking about if its over a certain amount, putting it in writing, that I want to go part-time in 2 weeks. Well, I get up late this morning, drink my coffee and I have chicks peeping in the bator...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Oh Lord!!!! I don't know how much more I can take or how I have lasted this torture this long. Every weekend I put 40 people's meds in number order according to how they fall in the MAR (medication administration record), then I actually move faster Sunday than I did Saturday because of knowing...

    Are we living our dreams?

    Its night time and I still didn't do all my chores, so I'm going out and doing them with a flash light. I let the goat hang around with me in our much overgrown garden, while I was clearing out around one of the hives. Just pulling dried ragweed and piling it on top of a raised bed. I...
