Birds in the house vents

This has definitely been an interesting week. Roller-coaster ride, frustrations, and more. Yeehaw.

First, my mare was lame on Sunday (bad). On Tuesday, my diabetic kitty was more active and alert (good). Wednesday I cleaned the house, had everything looking nice, and then discovered two bird families had made nests in the house (bad). Last year, one nest of birds spread these nasty bird mites through the house. (shudder) They don’t transmit disease, they just make your skin crawl. My skin has felt invisible creepy-crawlies since Wednesday.

Thursday afternoon, I installed Word Press (VERY good). Thursday evening, the vet came out and diagnosed Isis with laminitis. (MAJOR bad).

So it’s been a topsy-turvey ride.

At least there aren’t mites (knock on wood).

  • Looking at Rental Places

    I looked at houses on Sunday with my friend in Hillsborough and my younger sister. We drove around Hillsborough and Carrboro (a little too far away from work to be feasible). One house sounded good: old Mill house built in the early 1900s with one bedroom/one bath for $600/month. No problem with pets. Sounded great….

  • Storm last night

    It rained again here last night. Originally I wasn’t too worried about the rain because the roof had been patched. The roofer had warned me that he might not have gotten all of the spot and to call him if the roof continued to leak. The roof leaked last night. This time water actually came…
