Crazy times

Rick and I got back from Vanderbilt on Thursday, Good news is that I no longer have to be on the Plavix. Just a baby aspirin a day. It has been quite a crazy time the past year and a half. I did think to ask about being able to SCUBA [it has been something I have wanted to do.] But it seems that is not recommended because of the past history of stroke. Which is fine, because there are so many other things that I am into.

The Girls are growing fast, and Rick is putting the coop together, Should be ready by this following weekend. I am ready for them to be outside! PLUS have a friend who is expecting 50 more Barred Rocks, straight run, asked if he needed to get rid of a Roo to let me know. Plus more babies if they get to be too much.

Have been researching the top bar hive, I really like the look of it. Seems to be user friendly and that is a big Plus! Seems like the hive stays a bit healthier, but I'm sure that other types have their loyal following as well. I worked the traditional hives many years ago. (like 25) I am thrilled to be able to do this again.

Introduction to the holidays

Getting ready to decorate the house for the coming holidays. I can't really say if I am excited to decorate or not, I guess it just depends on how easy this is going to be. Usually I set everything up and let the boys finish the tree and set the rooms up.
This year though they all have jobs. Our eldest hasn't been home for 5 years. At first it was difficult, now I have become accustomed to his absence. Our second son has also made the decision to serve and should be on his way next spring. Our third and final son is still attending school. Their jobs keep them busy, which is good. But times like these I miss the noise and confusion.
So this year it's on me. Tonight, I suppose, since I have the house to myself. I'll put the Christmas CD's on and listen to the old favorites. Enjoy your evening.
