Got my house pretty shiny today with some hot water and vinegar. And after looking it up, it does act as a disinfectant, just not as potent as some and doesn't kill stuff like Salmonella. But I did a lot with it. :D I am feeling a little queasy myself now though and I am going to take it easy the rest of the night. I think it is just a side effect of a new medication the have me on though, not what Ben has. Just need to give it some time to adjust.

I have had skin problems since I was about ten and my dermatologist is finally on board for me doing a course of a pretty potent medication which should put an end to it. But because of the serious risk of birth defects from this med, they have to make sure I don't get pregnant and put me on birth control (which is a joke because we have made sure there are no more babies coming into this family but it doesn't matter---it is a matter of C.Y.A on their part but whatever).

The goat kids were being pests today. Not so much the little doeling but the two boys were biting me because they wanted more milk. They were full but didn't seem to think so (I could see their plump tummies but they are bottomless pits). So I decided they need to be starting in more on hay and rigged up a rack and feed dish. They did great with it and hopefully that will curb their biting. Good thing they are cute.

And Charlie is a muddy muddy happy mess. We have had rain for a few days and he has been having a blast. He seems quite proud of his brown coat.

Been there with the skin meds... If its on the market I've had it. Everything from Clearasil to Acutane.

Who doesn't like vinegar! I have a little bottle of the stuff that I drink.

LOL, you drink it?! That is funny! I use it when I poach eggs and everyone else gets grossed out but it just has a great flavor that way. And balsamic on potatoes is the best.

The med is Accutane actually. :cool: Can't wait!

And for fun....my big lovey mud puppy.

Geez Charlie, did you miss any spots?

Yep Vinegar shots! :lol

I have this tendency of grossing out my friends by putting vinegar on EVERYTHING!

Are you sure that is Charlie??? Charlie is snow white and fluffy...you may have an imposter :lol:

Hope you and Ben and the whole family soon all get totally healthy!!!!

Have to admit I was a little sad to read you aren't planning anymore children...you have adorable children and one more would also be adorable I know :love

Oh...and here DH and I use apple cider vinegar to gargle when we have allergies or sore throats and I do take a nip of it every day.

Definitey my Charlies under all that filth. Glad you all understand--city people (even family) would see that and think he was being neglected. That dog is freaking happy and babied!!

He is supposed to go the vet tomorrow to have his neutering stitches taken out...HAHAHAHA!!! Yeah, I am not taking him in that way. I am just going to take them out myself with my mom assisting. No biggie.

Yup, no more kids here. I had to have three C-sections and had the beginnings of preeclampsia issues so no more. :( I love being a mommy and it is hard to see them growing so fast and know there are no more. So goat babies and someday, I wants lots of grandkids.
