    Oh, please rest and get better! We have spent the past month beginning with the flu 3/24 and morphing into pneumonia for my husband and 86 year old mother, who lives with us. She ended up in the hospital for a week, and is now in rehab, briefly. Simultaneously, I was healing the stump on a black rescue sheep, Kali Baa (perhaps a relative of Dolores?), who lost a foot. I lost a goat two weeks from kidding to P.Tenuis, and I've been treating a traumatic eye injury of unknown origin on our pony. Too much! Take care of yourself. Sleeping and moaning allowed.

  44. if it is that cough thing going around be careful - lots of people in our area have had it morph into pneumonia....


    have I said here how much I HATE word verification.... they are really really hard with dyslexia... and spell check is no help at all with them LOL

    For the love of sheep, don't cough on Dolores! One of you has to be out there earning the rent money.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Sorry you are not feeling well.

    You didn't by any chance recently name Dolores as beneficiary on your life insurance, did you? You might want to skip that "special, soothing almond tea" she's offering you at night.

    Maybe Dolores will bring you over a kind, handsome, smart medical professional who believes in the laying on of hands and wants to learn how to knit.

  53. I'm reading a book, Later, At the Bar by Rebecca Barry and came across this line:
    "he spent the rest of the time in his apt watching TV and crocheting, a skill he'd picked up in jail." Good to know that not only knitting is taught in jail.

    Hope you're feeling better.
