Skipped A Day

I skipped a day here...

Got up and made breakfast for everybody. Did laundry & dishes after hubby left.

I spent most of the day on the couch with a heating pad because I woke up with a severe backache; around the lower left and radiating to my front left.

Hubby had taken the chickens over to Tim's so they would have a safe coop to reside within. I am glad they are somewhat safe now.

Hubby got home at 5:30 and worked on Dave's truck putting a leveling kit on it in exchange for the refrigerator we got. Maggie came down to the shop with me - I rode my bike; and she was doing the bunny hop with her back legs just like Isabelle used to do. I hope that Maggie is not showing signs of old age yet. I can't possibly put another dog down this year.

By 6:30, we took the truck in and dropped it off at Dave's, picked up the Dodge at his house. Went to pick up CN Diesel cop car, hubby drove that home while I drove home the Dodge. We stopped at Wendy's to get burgers for the dogs, then got groceries at Super 1 in Rathdrum.

There were two cops that had pulled over a car on Diagonal, and a huge truck that passed us going the opposite direction that would not turn off his brights - ended up blinding me the rest of the way home.

Gave burgers to the dogs at home. Unloaded groceries. I took a painkiller and went to bed.

Got up and made breakfast with the new french toast cinnamon bread that hubby had purchased.

Took dogs to park to walk them down by the sewage plant. Maggie was really feeling it when we got back. Even tho we had stopped to give them all water, Maggie's back leg was quivering. We have noticed that she is getting weak in the rear end.

We came home and hubby went to work down at the shop with Tim.

In the afternoon, I went down to get the mail and took Bud with me. He ran all over outside. The poor dog has not been able to run around outside because of the free-roaming chickens, so it was a real treat for him to get to come down to the shop.

I also took the extra egg cartons down and put them in Tim's truck.

I took a nap after having violent diarrhea. Felt like I had been poisoned. My back was hurting even worse. Laid on heating pads.

After getting up, I sat on the deck for a couple hours with the dogs.

I made Kale chips in the afternoon.

Hubby came home after working in the shop all day. He was filthy dirty and took a shower.
