Most of the farm houses around here use a standard 500 gallon LP tank. We bought ours off the propane company for a dollar/gallon. Afterward, we could shop around and pay cheapest rate and get a summer fill for cheaper. My folks had a 1000gallon tank for their house, but I couldn't hardly afford...

Been getting ready for the surgery coming up on Thursday. I got all the drop trays dumped and spread out on the hay field. Then, I got the field mowed. Today I got the litter of rabbits butchered that didn't want ti wait a month to process, and got a shower in time to take both boys to the...

My doctor told me the potassium would be good for me too.

I have stopped adding salt to food and cooking. I have been using No Salt, potassium chloride substitute. I take a multivitamin that has minerals too. Not sure if I'm balanced or not. Been told I'm not :woot

Yes, but didn't you say you were a power lifting body builder not too long back?;)

It's hard to trust the No's from God are for our best interest. I have never seen Him close a door without opening a window. Let your work and saving be devoted to Him and He will continue to bless you.

The field at the back of tbe church property I maintain for hay has its share of snakes and wildlife. It is behind the house, rabbit shed and shelter house that joins the playground. Today, the grounds team was mowing up next to the field which is only abt 8-10" high right now. I see an erratic...

Trying to find the optimum blend of HP, compactability, action as in FEL or PTO, fuel, etc, etc. Does it have a belly mower or get a pull behind? Will it fit under a roof or do I need to build on a lean to or overhang? So many options to consider :drool

Things are definitely changing all the time. Things changed sooooo much in the 20 year break I took from rabbits before starting back up. I had never heard of a broken pattern rabbit like you may get in crossing NZW and NZ Blacks. We had them, but they wouldn't have qualified for showing. I dive...

Did I mention the surgeon acted more interested in talking with me this time? Since they did an abdominal and pelvic scan, I asked the surgeon to look at the inguinal hernia repair I had done in 2014 and he said those two locations look normal. I told him I get pain from time to time and it...

My weight loss has been slight, but since Jul 13th my BP in the surgeon's office last Monday was 124/82 and today it was 120/70, so my doc would be happy.

CTscan showed small hernia that will be repaired on Aug 09th. Surgeon says small incision, even less invasive than laparoscopic. Abt an hour procedure, abt 4 days downtime, and 4 weeks weight restrictions.

I don't understand it all quite myself @Baymule, but the research I did on the muscle separation showed they didn't do surgery to correct it and the ones that did weren't real successful. I find out more tomorrow. @Mike CHS they haven't told me of a way to strengthen core yet. I may have to...

My sister and I had Chinchilla Satins beginning in 1986 and they were to be only pet does. Once we decided we wanted litters, it began the whole process we went through leading up to now. They were pretty, but any of the domestic breeds I have processed have pretty much always tasted the same...

Well, It's come to T H I S I keep telling myself that I CAN still throw around the 50lb sacks. I am choosing to be smart and buy the 25 pounders. As picking them up to carry out of the Feed and Hardware store, I almost threw one over each shoulder until I remembered my whole goal was to...

Got it back. Hydraulic 3pt hitch. Will lift approx 400lbs. which is abt the weight of the tractor. Now I can put attachments on the back to lift square bales or lift a pallet of some feed sacks. Pull gravity operated implements, or self powered mowers, etc.

We will see what the CT scan produces. My mom has fractured both shoulders at different times. First one didn't require replacement, but repair. Dad put a pulley over a door and a thin rope for her to exercise her arm. Her second fracture required a new shoulder and the same pulley and rope. She...

Consult with Surgeon resulted in him telling me he believes it's not a hernia in my abdomen but a separation of my stomach muscles producing protrusion. This would mean no surgery. CT scan with contrast tomorrow of abdomen and pelvis. Go back Monday to discuss scan. My question was how do I...

Already thinking abt it now and planning too. :thumbsup

Yah when I had my double sided inguinal hernia repair in 2014, we had a son that was 9 mos old and couldn't understand why Daddy couldn't pick him up. I had mine a few months after my Dad had his that he had lived with 50 years. His was a major ordeal. The earlier ones I had done have held up...
