Good Morning!--Chat thread

wynedot - I get it, your talking round bales? Phew! We don't have round bales hereabout, only the rectangular 3 wire bales. I pay the distributor around 10-13 dollar per bale for a lift of 84 delivered to my hay barn. Feed stores are charging 15-20 bucks per bale plus delivery for the same hay.

This morning was so beautiful, we were down into the 50s last night. I sat on the hill and enjoyed the sunrise, it was so quite! [except for a grey squirrel and wood pecker fighting over tree space lol] Hubby has a side job today... so I'm going to clean my office out of my past employers stuff. I'll have a truck load of blueprints and about five file boxes of files to take to the dump ~ my outing for the week [rolling eyes]

Have a great day...waving hello

Good (NOT Saturday) morning everybody!

Hubby is laid off, so he's home today? He cut my so-so hay field last night, just left to cut the neighbors. The boy who has been laid off, is working today? I have enough trouble keeping track of the days when they are on a normal schedule, this is too confusing!
I need to find my kitchen so I can start making pickles and canning green beans. I thought about just torching all the piles of magazines and papers all over my counter, but Hubby says that's not practical?


Kitty, daring me to make the quilts, won't get me me moving!
A maid and a couple of farm hands might help though!

Bronco Hollow, that is a beautiful pic!

Thewife, get at those quilts anyway!

They are going to wait 2 weeks to do the blood work I wanted done today! They need to wait that long for the antibodies to come down, if the Lyme's was taken care of. Doing the test now would be pointless, I guess. So we wait and see.

Went and saw BIL last night. He is doing good and talking about getting out of there. He had a CT scan yesterday for his cancer and the appointment was this morning. I haven't been able to get a hold of SIL to see what they found out. He's been off his cancer meds for 5 weeks now. We're hoping and praying that the cancer isn't growing!

BIL's cancer has grown but, that isn't a surprising. The doctor said that it is to be expected when going off the meds. It could hold there and not move. They will rescan in 2 months. He can't really go back on the drugs he was on and they were the newest, leading drugs so I really don't know where they would go from here.

We know how bad it is. If this had been 5 years ago BIL with the Kidney cancer would have been gone by now. He has been lucky enough to catch the leading edge of treatments but, for how long.

know that yall are in my thoughts an prayers.i may not say much about it only because it takes me back that times years ago.
