Teresa & Mike CHS - Our journal

[B&B Happy goats]

A slow day waiting on another rain event. I spread some Crimson Clover out over a 3 acre area so that should add a bit of graze if it decides to germinate. The main herd is being supplemented on hay now that the grass is slowing down. We never did get a good stand of cool season grass like we usually do this time of year since it had been so hot.

On a side note, Mel is the most loving dog that I have ever seen.

Isn't he a amazing boy ! He is a one of a kind for sure, he is gentle, calm, generous, polite, and very loving.... I am so happy that he has a home and job with you Mike....give him a big ole hug for me please

We went up to Nashville to one of the Vanderbilt facilities to have a test done on Teresa. She has had a couple of bouts with a fast heart rate so they are having to do a process of elimination.

We had bought a couple of pantry cabinets for the porch the other day and one of them was damaged so we took it back this afternoon to exchange it. About 5 miles out of Columbia, the engine started making a screeching sound and when we stopped and looked there was smoke coming from the belt on the lower pulley. We decided to chance it and drove the mile or so to drop off the cabinet off at Lowe's so we could then leave the truck at the shop. There never was any belt smoke after that first event and the engine never did heat up so we got it to the shop and called a friend to come rescue us. Hopefully they can get it back on the road tomorrow.

I sure hope it isn't anything serious for her.... .....I wonder sometimes about having problems while we are out and about, and what we would do...the closest ones we know are an hour away and it is our only vehicle....if it quits close by we can always walk.....glad ya have good friends to help out...

Thanks Fred. The shop just called and it was the AC that froze up but they will fix it first thing in the morning.

Teresa's Doctor is pretty thorough and thinks it could be something as simple as food allergies as they have already ran scans plus she just found out she is borderline diabetic.

Did Joyce's van bite the dust??

 

[CntryBoy777]

Naw, we still have it, but no registration or license so it os stuck here for the time being..........ya gotta have a FL DL to do that.

I hope Teresa is ok and it is nothing serious. Food allergies can make people sick and they don't know why. She may have to do a process of elimination diet of some sort.

It's nice to have friends that will come get you when you are stranded. All of our breakdowns have been here at home, that's a whole lot better than 200 miles from home.

 

[Mike CHS]

We are getting ready to start the elimination diet for her so I'll probably be cooking two meals at a time.

I am impressed by men that can cook. BJ can cook pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and he does a jam up job of heating up leftovers.

Gosh, Mr. Mike, I hope you guys can figure out what's causing Miss Teresa's issues.
