Thanks guys. Twins? lol nah twins would be cool. DH doesn't want 3, but that would be a good way of sneaking in a 3rd wouldn't it? Hahah

My neighbor lady has terrible migraines and recently had the inner cartilage of her ear pierced. It is an acupuncture point, when she feels a migraine coming on, she presses the earring and it helps stop the migraine.

I've heard that. I used to have a piercing there (just because I liked it), and I honestly don't remember if there was a difference. I hadn't heard of that at the time so I wouldn't have been paying attention to whether there was or not.

High pollen count today. I'm allergy brained and exhausted tonight. It's so not cool, I never had allergies until a few years ago. Now I'm allergic to cats and spring. Ok I know it's something more specific than spring but I don't know what it is, so I'm going to go with that.

My husband had horrendous allergies when we lived in CT. Now he hardly has issues at all (other than food allergies). So interesting. I think our air is just nicer!

I used to laugh at folks who got spring time allergies.... now I cry along with them! Hope ya feel better soon!

One of these things is not like the other, not like the other....lol. I amuse myself!

Lol I was originally going to post exactly that. This chicken is obsessed with the turkeys. They don't seem to mind her being there, thankfully.

My day so far....

So my darling Peppermint figured out how to stand on a rock and bend down the fence to escape. While trying to put her back in the fence, the other 3 got out. Lots of cursing and promising to trade them in for a milk cow later (and using my dog to herd them, who is not trained as a herding dog but is darn good at it apparently)... They are back in. I wish I had a video.... Or not because I don't want to relive that moment again!

I would have just let them hang out but I had just dumped a bunch of moderately wet grain and random kitchen scraps for the chickens and did NOT feel like a vet visit today.

Oh I patched up the fence temporarily, and DH says he'll fix it when he gets home. I kind of wish I hadn't used cattle panels for the turkey coop because I could use them at the moment...
