Can we guess??? my guess is that you are going to pick up your first check from that HUGE lottery you won and the first thing you will be doing is hiring a full-time helper/assistant/nanny/maid type person

Y'all are crazy! I like crazy!
Little Roll is getting so big! And he's so cute, such a snuggle bunny.
Oh boy! K is being a drama queen right now. I don't know why she is so emotional but it's driving me nuts. B is also being whiny and has been sick most of the day. K is now crying on her bed because I asked her to go to her room so that I can "work" without distraction (she wants to bounce around me).
B starts school tomorrow and K starts on Tuesday.

It could be the change that is comming, with school starting. A new year, class, teacher, a "new" K in away. She may be scared and wants to stay by you because you are a safe "place" to be. Just some thoughts that might help you a little.

Good point. Thanks!
She had a rough time in counseling today too. The counselor made her look in a mirror and then put on paper how she feels about what she sees. She put She thinks she's not pretty enough and that she's not girly enough. I know it's hard for her. I see a beautiful little girl. A colleague of the counselor's made the "mistake" of thinking that she WAS a girl, so unless you know the full truth then you'd never know by looking at her. But she thinks that people can see how she was born when they look at her.

Ugh! I have an ugly patch over my right eye! 
Last night when I closed the chickens in one of them flung debris into my eye. I had to have DH help me flush it but it was pretty red. I had to go to the doctor for bloodwork results so I asked her to look at it. I have 2 fairly large abrasions on my cornea. She medicated and patched and told me that I MUST come back tomorrow. So I will not be working the Farmer's Market tomorrow.
On the bloodwork. Apparently I have some kind of bleeding disorder. Which explains the easy bruising that I've been having. My bleed time test was way too high. I won't bleed out if I get cut (yet) but I need to be careful. And my vitamin D levels haven't come up much in a year of taking 5,000 iu of D daily. A year ago my level was 19...now it's only 21.2. It should have come up a lot more. So now I have to take 10,000 iu of D daily for the next 30 days and recheck it.
Critters are doing good. I have a buyer for a good chunk of my young chickens and guineas.
Not a lot to update. It's kind of hard to read and type when you can only look out of your non dominate eye. :/

DH looked at the dr and said we should stop at Long John Silvers for lunch so I'd fit right in.
I thought the dr was gonna have a heart attack right there. "You actually LIKE that stuff! Do you know how much fat and sodium is in that? Think of your cholesterol!"
Unfortunately my cholesterol is high too. But I am learning that that among a few other problems could possibly be contributed to my vitamin D deficiency. So I guess cross your fingers that I'm able to absorb these high doses
