TTs Critter Pics & Ramblings

[TTs Chicks]

Well it's Monday again :/ Enjoyed some good preachin yesterday Had some teenage drama from the oldest DS He's not sure if he's gonna go into the Marines now because he has an issue with his knee and is afraid it will be hurt / ruined during boot camp. I'm good with that as long as he figures out a back up plan . . . which he hasn't done. Plus he went off this weekend and apparently had no cell service and came home late and did not bother to borrow a phone with service to let me know. We had a nice long talk last night after I got home from church. Sometimes being a parent sucks

On the critter front . . Onyx has not been producing very much milk and seems puny to me. She gets run off from where the others eat :/ so I have to try to make sure she gets to eat. When I went out to milk this morning she had some loose poop Before I left for work, I put her in the little pen with some hay and water and gave her a dose of pepto. Oldest DS doesn't have to be at school till 11 this morning so I'm gonna have him chek on her before he leaves home. I'm hoping getting hay to herself and some pepto will do the trick.

Could someone explain "puny" to me? It must be a regional slang and since I've seen it used a few different ways I cannot for the life of me figure it out
Thanks!

Sorry

In this case I mean she doesn't feel good

Sometimes it is used to mean small.

I had a very close girlfriend who was in very bad health. She would go on these rants about her health, and when she was done she would always end it by saying "ok, I am through with my pity party now, I hate me when I am puny." She passed away last January, but every time I hear that word, it makes me smile cause I think of her.

Got sprouts in my garden cucumber, pumpkin, green beans, lima beans, corn are sprouting and 1 potatoe plant finally came up. Got some bunching onions I need to get in the ground and a couple empty rows in the garden begging me to plant something.

Goats are good - Onyx is still off I really think it is because she is very timid and lets the others run her off when she tries to eat so I am trying to make sure she gets fed in peace. I picked up some plain yogurt and gave her yesterday and she LOVED it ! I need to give her some more wormer.

Middle DS went on a hiking trip with our youth group yesterday - they hiked about an hour and then one of the guys preached to them. On the way to drop him off we stopped by the dump and picked up a leather (or pleather is what we call fake leather) lazy boy sofa that reclines on both ends I had been wanting to get some leather furniture cause the dog hair will be easier to get off of it, but I can't afford to buy any so this was awesome! the handles that you pull the foot rest out with are both missing and we had to repair the arm on one end but it was FREE!!!! I brushed, vacuumed and wiped down GOOD. For now we are using vice grips as handles for the foot rests but it works

We decided to go ahead and get a puppy for Lyssa to play with cause she misses Dussa (I do to ) so we went to the same humane society that we picked up Lyssa at and came home with a Golden Retriever (probably mixed) puppy She is very young, they claim she's 3 1/2 months old but I don't think she's quite that old. She is adorable - will post some pics after we get home from church this after noon.
