Well I am back, again!
Well my computer was not the only thing on the was on the fritz.
I sustained an eye injury when a hook at the end of a closer chain on the shed door hit me in the eye and hooked under my eyelid and ripped in for six stitches. "Oh, I have hurt myself was my usual expletive! ", I heard myself say. Followed by a "Damn!!"
It is no fun being alone in such a crisis. I picked up my milking pail and headed for the house, where I managed to phone for an ambulance. with blood streaming down my face.
Then, you wait, when you live at the edge of the area. Finally, the First Response crew from the adjacent town showed up. Shortly, the ambulance arrived and transported my to the local "hospital" where they sent me on the the hospital in North Bay. Luckily, the eye specialist was available. He gave me what I guess was a date rape drug and with a local anaesthetic he stitched me up, as I floated in and out of awareness. For someone who does not take drugs as a rule it was an interesting experience. I must ask what the drug was. I certainly relieved me of my anxiety. I have a strong aversion to touching my eyes,{ my nipples and my feet.} ( I think I just told you more than I should!) I was to go today and have the stitches out but my ride could not make it. Next week perhaps.

Hope your eye looks and feels better now! :) So good to see you back on the computer... and I am dying to know... what changes?????
Gosh Philip, I have been concerned about you. I wondered what happened to you and if you hurt yourself in some way, who would know, living out there alone? Do you have ANY neighbors who visit some times? Who cares for your animals when you are gone? I am very glad you are ok. Your poor eye looks terrible. Hopefully it will heal soon. I hate it for you. Take care of yourself, guy!
Oh cripes Philip! Where was the "wild child"? Hope you are feeling better! Yeah what changes?
