Your job sounds fun.
As for your medical condition. Ouch.
you may have to relearn how to channel lifes stress so it does not attack your body.

I realized yesterday that I am a major control freak and I worry about the stupidest stuff. I'm working on that because its a major cause of stress for me. I never saw it before but stepping away from home and coming back definitely opened my eyes to it. It's the first thing to go. I'm going to be getting regular massages, make sure to have me days where I just unwind and relax. I'm going to check out acupuncture and my diet is already changing. I am not going to put my self in jeopardy again.

My Cayuga laid this morning! Got one green egg from the beige duck as usual, then a pinkish one and an ashen one. Who the hell needs chickens when my ducks crank them out? :D I haven't seen any chicken eggs!

Haha! My ducks always layed an egg a day once the season started. The chickens can be so tempermental but the ducks always came through!

I just got hired at one of the vets in town also. I've been unemployed for over a year since my last job got bought out and closed because they opened a 24 hour clinic in chico where I was working. buut everything seemed to work out great for me in the long run. Its weird how things just fall into place sometimes. Good luck with your new job! :D

I find it so much easier to only worry about me.
Being in complete control is just too much work.
:cool:

So I was outside talking to my birds about how lazy and unproductive they are. All of them are lounging in the sawdust, sun and dust bathing. Then I walk into the barn and find 5 eggs in a goat stall! LOL. Probably just from my amazing blue hen but I was pleased.

I just told my sister about my epiphany that I'm a control freak and she was like "Uhh well yeah you are!" Hahaha we decided that its because I have always been on my own and doing my own thing that I'm use to just doing it my way.

Couple photos. It's a glorious day! I went and laid outside in the sunshine for a while.

The front two are the first Cayuga eggs. The greeny ones are from the mutt duck.

Day by day.

Just got off the phone with the office manager at the vet hospital. She said to get a recheck, and a note and she would be happy to schedule me.

That is a relief and now I can concentrate on all of the other things I need to do.
