Stacey's Home from Surgery and doing fine...

We brought Stacey home last night after a very successful surgery...  She has to be a couch potato for the first week and then she has to be restricted from picking up anything over 8 lbs and not bending over for the following 5 weeks...  She also has to wear a soft collar neck brace... Her arm pain is much better but her neck and throat are still painful enough that she needs pain medication but it is much - much improved over what she has been dealing with for the past few months...  

Matt surprised us when we returned - he had cleaned up and organized our computer office area and built this huge rustic shelf that is absolutely gorgeous from spare wood lying around the barn...  We were really impressed by his visionary and craftsmanship skills...  He really did a beautiful job...

We were also surprised when we stopped at Donnolley on our way home to find out that our Guinea hens had arrived and we brought 24 Guinea hen chicks home with us...  As a result we had to move our older Americana chicks out of the basement to the chicken proofed Kennel that Matt modified so that we could place the  week old Guinea hen chicks in the basement under the heated lamp...

Our main Diesel Generator had failed to start for Matt the night before and I couldn't get it to start when I got home however I was able to get the old Propane Generator to start and the Service technician was scheduled to come by today and was able to resolve the issue which was air in the fuel lines from the external tank...


And so goes the ongoing saga for the Embree's at our off the Grid Lake Creek Ranch home.
