Hi, everyone.
While it may seem as if I have deserted my blog, that is NOT the case. Health issues have been getting in the way but I am going to try to make a concentrated effort to blog regardless from now on. I have MS (multiple sclerosis), type 1 diabetes, and heart problems. My doctor is trying to get me on disability but until then, we are on our own for all the added medical expenses. Also, lately, the MS has been really acting up and I have problems with concentration and with my hands. I get where I have little sensation in my fingers and hands and it is hard to type when you can't tell if you hit a key or not.
Now with the extra expenses related to the illness, etc. we are having financial difficulties and then I get depressed and it is really hard to function then. I know being depressed helps noone but sometimes I just can't help it. Just pray for us. Pray for me.
I will try to write at least 5 times a week and if I don't please tell me about it. Maybe together we can keep me going and focused.
Hugs to all my friends out there!

What a week!
Hi, friends.
Have you ever had a week that really flew by but at the same time seemed like it had gone on forever? Or does that even make sense? I am sooooo behind on my blogging but life just keeps getting in the way. lol
The Lord has heaped a lot of great blessings upon my lap this week and I am feeling so blessed. But at the same time, my MS has been really affecting my day-to-day living. Today is the first day in awhile that I have been symptom free and have enjoyed the day so much. I praise God for that also.
We now have 4 eggs in our nestboxes. We are leaving them for now because they may be fertilized. The chickens were in with roosters when we purchased them so any eggs laid in the first 2 weeks here have a chance of being fertile. Baby chicks would be exciting. Also, 2 of our chickens started looking bad. Their eyes were shut and they were not eating. Found out they had gotten dirt in their eyes and had become infected so we have been washing them out with a warm washcloth and putting triple antibiotic ointment in them and they look so much better. We even had to force them to drink for a bit. But they are on the mend and that pleases our hearts.
We are also now proud owners of a young pair of sugar gliders. They are so adorable and I look forward to posting pictures of them soon on here.
Well, until next time....
