What's everybody doing today?

Well this Hubby of mine is quite efficient at spending . Went today and tried a couple bows. He decided to go with a Matthews. His two that burnt were Hoyt and PSE.
Frosted a zillion fish cookies for tomorrow. I did get a little stitching done which was a nice treat. It’s been damp and grey here. Where we went for Hubby’s bow is about an hour and a half away. Coming back the low clouds looked like an ocean- that we got to drive back into

Thankfully Mom seems to be on the mend. Everything is tougher in your 80s. After a rough couple of days I'm on my feet again; did some housecleaning chores, made some chicken broth, did a few other things. Had to keep napping in between, but made a little progress. Still not up to hunting and they know it, four does camped in my yard this morning.
A few snow flurries and a lot of wind. Temps in the 20s, which is quite a change from what we had through November. Takes a little getting used to. Wood stove is doing a great job of keeping up, still haven't turned on the furnace. Probably won't until the bedroom (at the other end of the house) gets too cold.
Now if anyone has a magic formula for stopping a dog from farting, please share! Gah! And of course she has to lay on the floor right up close with the bad end pointed right at me. I'm going to have to open a window!

Guess we missed thanksgiving this year. It got moved twice because of mom’s health issues. It got called off again this morning, took mom to the little hospital who promptly transferred her to the big hospital in the tuscaloosa. A known issue, 88 and her heart is giving out.

I spent the day here, holding down the fort and keeping dad busy. Alabama played auburn in Tusc this afternoon, and extra 100k people at the game. Couldn’t let dad try to drive in that mad house and I wasn’t about too. Took the ambulance over 2hrs to transport mom 40miles. Kinfolk were waiting so no need for dad to be there.

I took care of all the critters this afternoon. Spent extra time on the chicken’s water situation. The tank was frozen again this morning so it was time to drag out the 2nd tank. I just swap tanks everyday, let the frozen tank thaw in the house over night then swap them again. Easier than trying to bust ice in a water tank.

Watched some great college football today. Another game is on now...

Prayers on the way Peanut. Sorry to hear about your mom.

Mom's and heart issues are hard. That was my mom's problem.
Home is quieter again. Took daughter and her boyfriend around our town today...thrift store, hardware, little grocery and our local meat place. Brought some bierrocks home for lunch. They took the side by side out for a good ride, and our neighbor talked their ear off. Drove them to the airport early evening, and off they went. We've had solid company for a week, and a death in there, too, and Thanksgiving, so it's been a week for sure.

Aw @Peanut sorry your mom is not doing so great.
Praying.
