What's everybody doing today?

[teeceetx]

Went grocery shopping again! Yes, just went the other day! Yet we managed to buy a sh*tload of stuff ... mostly produce and frozen things, and a few other items.

Decided I wanted Tuna Salad for dinner, so I whipped up a batch. Will have it on toast for dinner here soon.

Chess, the male pup, is digging in his bed here in the kitchen. No idea why he is so into doing it! But he is very happy doing it!!! He does it all the time. He then rolls around in it, growling and barking. Kudos to the manufacturer for making a bed that has survived a hundred digging episodes with no damage - YET!

I finally heard from my daughter today, just two short messages. My son talked to her yesterday and said that she's in pretty bad shape. I know I should head up right now to see her, but I've got a doctor appointment on Thursday that I've had to wait 3 months to get. Her husband is staying home with the kids so they're OK.

OMG, what is wrong with her?

Today was an interesting day. Two of my wife's friends both had doctor appointments today & they couldn't drive to them. (One's car is dead because she was operated on & hasn't used it in a month, the other had a scope operation scheduled). I drove one to her appointment while my wife was with the other one. At the end of the day my wife picked up one & took her home & picked up burgers on the way back. She got 1 bite & got a briefing on the other one. She couldn't be alone tonight, can't drive for a week, no lifting over 15 lbs & clear liquids for a week. So the wife is spending the night over at her house. Nothing but fun.

OMG, what is wrong with her?

Not really sure. She said that she has a blockage of something. She's got hoses in her nose and throat so she has a hard time talking, plus they're keeping her doped up. I hope to hear more tomorrow.

IT'S ACTUALLY RAINING, FINALLY. Morning at the cat shelter, then to the tire place to tires taken off the rims. Rims are aluminum, they go to recycle. The tires go to the township recycle day on Saturday.

Mountain Trapper: hope your daughter is ok

Today it is supposed to rain later so we might put the animals in. Need to clean the kitchen and stack more wood. We have plenty for now , should fill up the wood shed
One of the livestock dogs , Axel, has a lump on his side. He has had one on his leg before but it went away after some antibiotics. I still have some left ( vet gave me a lot last time) and will try that first before taking him to the vet. I have a bad feeling about it, he is almost at the average live expectancy for those type of dogs
We have not made progress on our greenhouse , son has made no progress on getting a job , but he has signed up for the EIT test next in a few weeks, hope he passes the first time. So we need to get the greenhouse up while he still has some time to help

Just going to work!! Going to be near 90° and humid! I foresee some nap and pool time later!!

I tend to go to Lalvin EC-1118 yeast.

Ordered it yesterday. Thanks!

it’s supposed to be up to 90 again

Here, too. 90 today and then cooling off into the 80's for day time.

Axel, has a lump on his side.

I hope he recovers with antibiotics!
@Mountain trapper, Praying for your daughter!

Today, I will walk first.
We have a video appt. with DH's rheumatologist this morning.
Then, work on throwing out a lot in pantry. I have tiny black bugs all over. I think they came from some cake mixes I was given and didn't think to freeze first. Will leave pantry mostly empty while I am gone to visit for a week and then stock up when I get back. Taking a chance by waiting, but there are too many little bugs to ignore.
That's my big ambition! I did complete all Christmas cards, yesterday. That is such a big thing done!

No appts today (hooray). Plan on baking some seasoned chicken legs this afternoon and bringing them to our neighbor's place for her kids, they're a favorite with the kids. Most amish do not bake what they call Chicken on the Bone, instead chicken is shredded and served. Anyway, that's the family with the new baby, so I've got some baby gifts and want to meet new little Julie Yoder. Dave the fixit guy should be here in about an hour, finishing the trim on the laundry room, and maybe starting some bedroom floor repairs. Rowdy the pup eating a hole in his straw hat finished the day yesterday. Waiting for the kitchen cupboard hardware to arrive, so I can see how the new stuff will fit and then start redoing the kitchen cupboards. But the weather will be really good again, so maybe more time outside.
