June 29, 2019

  Rough night last night, I had forgotten just how bad this stuff can really be. I've slept finally from about 9:50am to 1:00 pm, and I'm about to do this again. Denise asked where I felt bad at and my answer is everywhere. That is hard to get someone who has never had to do Chemo or Radiation, you just can't explain "everywhere". We're talking bones, body aches, muscles... almost everywhere. \


  So this morning about 8:00am I took a bath, washed my hair, got dressed and Denise got ready too and we went to the Jefferson Farmer's COOP for chicken feed. 157.00 dollars worth. Hello, it is called chicken scratch and usually means cheap.  

   We came back and Denise unloaded the feed. She has taken over my chicks I hatched out, something I sorely miss doing. She claims there are at least 200 chicks of various sizes, and Denise is probably right. I don't know what if anything I was thinking but I set a lot of Maran eggs and then later Guinea eggs. I didn't set any Auranca eggs, I've lost the genetic control for pure blooded birds. No Turkens, Denise hates those birds. I set them as if I was going to be good to care for them, but here I am, not being able to. There Denise is having to do it all. We have about 100 chickens that are adults. 

  I had all these plans on building some new pens but in the end, none of them got done. We make plans and God laughs.
