The Well Being Of All

It has been a bad morning for Daughter #1. She had a great time yesterday on the ski slopes but today she is suffering. Daughter #1 went skiing with the work ethics honour group and this is something she has never done before. She used muscles that she normally doesn't use. She is moving very slowly and frankly she is having a hard time not crying because it hurts so bad. Red eyes an swollen nose and she's walking like a zombie. I think she's really wanting a day home with Mom.... she ain't getting it!

Daughter #2 is in bed.... she has a snarky cold. She also has a red nose and red eyes.... but for different reasons. It's going around the school so they tell me. She has been home for two days but hopefully will be able to go back to school on Monday.

Duffy has a sore eye. I took her to the vet two weeks ago and he put her on steroids... then her face swelled up and it got so bad that she couldn't get her eyes open.... we took her off the steroids and her face started to go back to normal.... but when her face stopped swelling there was a huge lump over the bad eye.... I was just going to call the vet for an appointment again when she broke it open and out came a lot of disgusting pus.... obviously a misdiagnosis. So we are putting peroxide on it in an effort to clear up what ever infection was there.

Tootsie is fine. In serious ball crisis... since we were so irritated with him staring at us to play ball with him that he got his ball taken away till the snow melt and he can play outdoors.

The animals are all fine. The ewes are starting to have that pregnant look. I am expecting the first lambs in just over a month. Ahhh lambing season.

The cats..... well they're their usual irritating selves....

Hubby is fine.

Me too.

This post is entirely for the folks home who read solely just to catch up on how we all are.....

Tomorrow I should have a post about silk.....and how to spin hankies. I'm dyeing a bunch of them today...... if I can just find the vinegar..... hmmm... what the heck did I do with that stuff...
