I sure hope I don't get used to getting up at 6am just so I can let the chickens out of the coop. Yikes! That's one job I can do without.....unless I absolutely had to do it. But I don't want to think like that. Me bad!
Cee and I were supposed to go out to lunch today but Cee called me and begged off. She wasn't feeling good and wanted to know if we could do it tomorrow. Of course, I told her sure but I am a bit concerned. She's been *not feeling well* off and one for over a week. I wonder if she should see her doctor? There's a lot of strange things going on with people...I mean about not feeling well but no distinct symptoms.
Even Dennis, I found out tonight, has been back and forth to his various doctors (he's had all kinds of tests, scans, etc.) but no one has really found anything you could say *Ah ha!* to. They even did several checks of his heart because the symptoms for heart failure can be sneaky. He's feeling a bit better tonight but he was down for the count since Monday. I thought they had gone away for the week because the last time I saw them, they were hauling Dennis' motorcycle on their trailer. Diane told me he was dropping it off to be serviced because he wasn't feeling well and didn't feel up to doing it. That's when Diane knew he really WAS sick.
I have to talk to Cee tomorrow because the restaurant we planned to go to may not be open for lunch on Sundays. Someone who likes the same place told me that. I have their phone number on my little yellow pad so that I can call them tomorrow and find out. Cee and I may just have to put it off until either Monday or Tuesday. I doubt they will be closed on Monday but I'll check on that when I call them before I talk to Cee.
I have to laugh at the chickens and their forming a line behind me when I go out to gather the eggs and put them away for the night. They know they are going to get corn when they see me come out when it starts to get dark. Well, not really but there's a difference in the light in the sky. When I look behind me, all the hens are in a line with the rooster bringing up the rear. He also is the last one out of the coop in the morning. It's like he has to make sure all the girls are out first. I think he is just doing that to show he's the *boss*. LOL!
Since we didn't go out to lunch, I pigged out on shrimp for my lunch. *Blush* But I had a nice salad for my dinner to compensate for that, I hope. I love salads anyway and I had half a cucumber from the other day that needed to be used. It was delicious.
Baron indicated he wanted to go outside for his nightly poop so I let him out alone (we do that a lot at night because he doesn't like being out at night so he comes back quickly). When he seemed to be taking a longer time than usual, I went outside to call him and found Diane by my stairs, petting him. She surprised me because I wasn't expecting her to be there. She asked me if I was alone and asked me how long the Beast was going to be gone. She got the biggest grin on her face when I told her because she likes my company and invited me over to her place any time I wanted to come. I thanked her and reminded her that Cee still hadn't seen her house so she told me to bring her over, too.
I've been watching Animal Planet channel almost all day long because it is showing a couple of the different veterinarian shows they have almost continuously since early morning. I find them interesting partly because of Baron and also because I learn about different symptoms to watch for in him now that he's older. But I would still find it interesting even if we didn't have Baron. There's a trio of vets that started a clinic in Houston called Cy-Fair (no clue where they came up with that name) and, since I have a friend that lives in Houston, it interested me just for that reason. Another vet is in Alaska and there's one in Colorado and another in Michigan. All are different but they also have a lot in common (their surgical approaches for example). It's the scope of their practices that are different. Okay, so I'm weird. Deal with it! It's me.....LOL.
Okay, time to wrap this up. Love you all. Be happy. Live your life like each day is the last one you have left. Live intensely. Live with no regrets. ***Hugs***
