Thank you and bless you all for the birthday and anniversary wishes!
Been busy,, trying to get stained glass project finished on days I can use my hands

It’s nice having a place to work, instead of kitchen table!

Damaged the tip on my soldering iron so I can’t finish it until that comes. I don’t think the baby is due yet so I still have time.
Chicks will be here soon. Hoping my bro in law will be willing to help me clean the coop when he moves in. For several years I couldn’t go out there, TheMan never cleaned or did repairs, even when the nesting boxes all fell off the wall. :he

This morning Fen held a couple things hostage just to stay in practice. I woke up to find he had stolen the trash can from the bedroom and transported it to the living room, trash and all. He also had a metal condiment cup that I have no idea how he managed to get it. All food is gonna need to go in a gun safe to protect it from him.

Mister FINALLY got his feet trimmed so I hope to start riding tomorrow! God willing 😀
Putting borax in coffee to see if it helps pain. Been hearing of good results!

Good Morning everyone!!! 2nd cup of coffee gone. Can't really do any outside work this AM seeing how it's raining here still and a thunderstorm just left my area hopefully it's not headed to @canesisters or @Mini Horses. This afternoon in for another round of storms the same goes for this weekend so it's a good thing we don't really have any plans for this weekend that involves being outside.
I agree with @Baymule about @peteyfoozer stained glass it's beautiful. I love stuff like that!!!
Yesterday after I got done working outside I came in and "assigned" colors to my "Bride Squad" with the "Team Men" going to have the same color shirts. I know I know the wedding is months away but might as well get as much done now before having to scramble to get it done.
My breakfast this AM is going to reheated chicken FH brought me home last night. I know I know it's really not a good breakfast but it's not as strange as what I've seen some eating on here.

Mornin all. I'll have a cup. We had a nice light show again from 1 to 4 that I know of. After daylight there was/is a lot of thunder, it's still going on and we finally got some rain 1.2". Just missed another storm bringing 2" more though. The grass will love it.

Coffee is ready.
@peteyfoozer that stained glass is beautiful. That’s an art that is so versatile, you will get it finished in time!
Thank you Baymule! It’s a little more complicated than I thought it would be with the little face pieces and I haven’t done glass for years. I only made a half dozen pieces before that!
Fen gave me a 1/2 hr grace this morning and let me sleep in til 5:30. I slept in a bed all night too, which is unusual. Usually the pain dictates that I move to a recliner so it was a surprise to have him wake me in bed.
TODAY IS THE DAY!! Mister and I are going to ride, even if it’s just walking in the round pen. It all depends on how bad my strength and balance are. Hopefully it will all improve quickly, as I would like to ride out on the ranch again and maybe even help move cows again part time. Prayers welcome!
Starting with 1/8 tsp of borax in my coffee and it SEEMS to be helping. A few more weeks and I will have a better idea if it does or not.

Never heard of this 🤷. Any taste? Hope it helps!

Not strange but, actually good. It's a protein. Unless fried (ok, just a little skin☺️)...way healthier than a donut. 👍
we finally got some rain 1.2".
:celebratei know that was welcome! Maybe more to come.

We had rain here last night, more today. So overcast. They say .7 today. Sat/Sun, more of same. We've gotten a good rain often enough to keep pastures in shape. A couple of days of this heat dries it up on surface. Heavy dew with our humidity, so things are growing!! 👍

Worked yesterday, half a day. Jobs done until next week...2 days then. Gives me time at home 👍but, sometimes it's "hard" to go on those days I do work🤣. Have a couple farm chores...gotta go get that diesel first. Plus wet out & more rain, so won't be much happening out there. Some barn & in house things.

Slow morning. Coffee hot & good. Cooler out 👍

@Mini Horses there’s not really much of a taste to the borax, but I take my coffee with cream and sugar so it masks the taste. It’s recommended to start with a tsp mixed in a qt of water and just take a tsp of the solution every day and work your way up, or just a pinch. I decided my pinch wasn’t that much smaller then a tsp so I just went with the recommended dose for women.
I had a lot of energy yesterday and woke up without the normal excruciating pain in my wrists and feet. But with my body I can never tell if it’s weather, lack of a flare, remission, or something I’m taking. :idunno
Randy might start taking it too. That will give us a better idea. But the people on the forum have had remarkable results in a short period of time. Some have taken it for years. No side effects unless you take too much in the beginning. Gotta take magnesium with it.

Good morning all, not much new here just home school and house things. working on getting back on a meal plan and going to try to make some freezer meals in preparation for giving birth would be so much easier if my kids actually like any casseroles or any real pasta dishes lol. September almost here. Need to get some baby clothes washed, also blankets wont find out baby's gender until the baby is born. Havent had an ultra sound or anything else but we live far out from any lab and ultra sound place so yah not going to drive almost 3 hrs or more to go with five kids if i can avoid it. My husband has been on night shift for awhile now frustrating but its part of life. Pregnancy isnt all that lol i find it funny my midwife had a awesome pregnancy and loved it i dont like the being pregnant part would probably would enjoy it if i wasnt constantly in pain from it but oh well I just want the baby and will deal with it lol. anyways this ended up being lot longer post then i originally planned.
