Welcome back! Good luck with the hyena surgery. The hernia too. It's a shame spell check doesn't read minds to know what we actually mean.

lol, i know how to spell hernia, even without the spell check i actually had to have the spell check correct my spelling of hyena, i had it as hyenia I just like calling them (thats right, them. I have two ) hyenas.
Thanks for the welcome!

Welcome back and good luck with the hyena/hernia thing. The only thing worse that a matching set/pair is when they're triplets.

Thanks! I can imagine the whole triplet thing! My pair are bad enough! They are each one located in a very important (well, it'd be important if I was planning on getting a woman pregnant) channel and I just want them gone. I can feel them moving and shifting whenever I lift things or use my muscles for stuff

I read somewhere that honey is good for burns and burn blisters, but what about if the skin is broken? And should that be the raw unprocessed honey or is the processed ok?
- Honey is amazing, and is fine on broken skin. It has even been used as a surgical dressing sometimes. The enzymes in raw honey do give it an advantage, but using the other stuff is still good.
fixed typo

I feel like I've been sick and am currently recouping but I only did three or fours hours of hard work before going to my job yesterday. I shouldn't feel this way.
- Doing 3-4 hours before going to a normal job would be exhausting. Make sure you take good care of yourself.

Awesome! I think I'll alternate that with the aloe and see what happens! I think we have gauze around here, and as long as I don't put it on too heavy I should be ok. I'll do it after i wash up!

i think it doesn't help things that I was working outside, and it's been over 90* lately bleh

Thank you again for your advice, for some reason I had the feeling you didn't like me

Also, I'm thinking I'm going to get the filet knife I got at the outdoors store really sharp and then test it on one of the chickens to see if it works for the neck and for skinning. If I do this, do I have to freeze the carcass or can I process the bird and then toss it in the oven/crock pot? does anyone know why I couldn't do this? To be honest, this might actually make things easier here. Once a week go out to the coop at night and put a bird in a small enclosure to keep it from eating during the night and the next morning, then go out in the morning, string it up, slice the artery, skin and gut it, then toss it in the crockpot all day and have chicken for dinner that evening granted, I have never actually done this, just read alot, so it's entirely possible that I am oversimplifying the process and it really won't be that simple. Thoughts?

Minus the crockpot, which was not invented yet cooks have been doing just that for centuries!

I used to go to my aunt's and help them process chickens. The deal was the first two (or sometimes three ) were brought immediately to the kitchen. We would continue cleaning birds and meanwhile someone (usually my aunt) would season those birds up and get them on the rotisserie grill. When the job was complete we would shower and change clothes then sit down to the rotisserie chicken, potato salad, salad, and baked beans. Usually there was even homemade cinnamon rolls and homemade ice cream.

Hmm - no wonder I always liked working for her.

Yay! well then maybe this sunday I can do several! do one for us and and a couple for the inlaws And thank you FF, now I've got the cravings for potato salad, macaroni salad, baked beans and cinnamon rolls! And a blizzard! *sigh* I haven't yet found a good gluten free macaroni salad and it's starting to irritate me!

But, I have a from scratch chocolate pudding recipe from my grandmother that I know I have the four ingredients for, I should make a big batch and let that cool! have it for dinner! (or with, your choice )
