Well, he seems to be better but oddly has been having fits of sneezing since going on the meds.

Weird. He has already stopped peeing so much and is resting a lot still. Still doesn't want to eat though. I did get him to eat half a slice of bread with his meds this morning.
Yesterday I went and had a good long visit with my friend the cake decorator. The kids had a good time playing and I tried to diagnose what was wrong with her sewing machine. I found out she blew compressed air into it.

DO NOT do that to your sewing machines ladies....it blows all the debris further inside the machine and can cause issues that only a technician can fix.
She just found out she is allergic to wheat and her DD, who is 2, is allergic to chicken, chicken eggs, apples, wheat, soy, corn, and maybe some other stuff. She is going through the same thing I just went through---restocking her pantry. She is having a hard time finding recipes that are wheat, egg, and corn free. She is especially heartbroken cause all the spaghetti sauce she canned over the summer is now something she cannot eat, she thickened it with wheat germ.

I don't know if there is a food pantry that would take it cause it is not a commercial product. She may just fix separate meals for her husband and son and her and DD to use it up. I think the both of us are going to put up diced or stewed tomatoes this year and then if we want to make sauce we can just start with our plain tomatoes.
Hubby is getting a vasectomy today. I am not a happy pregnant person and we have always talked about adopting or fostering children if the opportunity presents itself. In my effort to get off of birth control completely we feel this is the best option. Turn around time for his surgery is less than if I were to get my tubes tied. He is really lucky that he was able to apply and get accepted for FMLA (family medical leave act) for the surgery so they are giving him all of next week off, paid. Praise Jesus!
We are in pretty good shape but we are getting our contractor friends over here to do some estimates for finishing out the lean tos and building a one car garage with storage room and 2 car carport. We feel like that is the most cost effective thing to do and then if we want to enclose the carport at a later date then we can tackle that down the road. It will give us a place under roof to process our meat next year. We are thinking of pouring a concrete pad under it now so that if we close it in later it is already done.
Things seem to be on track to close on the house. Our real estate agent is taking care of the septic pumping for us and taking it out of our closing costs. I love her.
