Peteyfoozer’s Journey (because journaling’s not enough)

[SageHill]

We must be on the same wavelength waffles here this morning as well.
Mixed up some sourdough and an experiment - I've often wondered if I could use the fast rise instant yeast and get a loaf of 'regular' bread. So I mixed up a second loaf adjusting water and flour for what would've been starter. Both are now sitting in the bowl waiting for the first stretch and fold. Nothing like experimenting! If it doesn't turn out the chickens will get the 'door stop'!
Keeping my fingers crossed that Tom works out for helping around - don't want to hold my breath but I will cross my fingers. You sure need a little help around there.

Well it’s 3:30 and I haven’t seen hide nor hair of Tom yet. I sure hope we can get through to him somehow.

- though if it's a lifelong habit for him you're not going to change him.

How’d the bread experiment turn out? It’s 6:00 and no Tom. I called Randy to check on him. If his back is really hurt we need to take him dinner and maybe ice or something for inflammation. He has my DMSO so that should help. It’s his brother so he needs to look after him.
I’ve been down all day with pain and fatigue. I did get the dishwasher emptied and washed and put away all the dishes in the sink but I’m afraid I slept most of the day. Poor Randy seems to be stuck doing all the heavy lifting for two of us

Looks good. I'll slice tomorrow and know for sure. Then I'll post it in the coffee thread.

You might need to make another road trip to take Tom back to where you picked him up. You have enough problems of your own.

Or ... Buy a bus ticket.

Randy got Tom up a 7:30 this morning. He helped me breed rabbits as I have to step up on a brick and pick up my doe. It’s too easy to fall so he kept me safe while Murphy did his duty.Then he cleaned up all the dead hollyhock stems while I picked up Boone’s lawn mines. Randy’s got him helping him to feed so he can cover for us when we go to town and when Randy has his surgery.
I have to figure which dog to work when we go to town tomorrow…

They are just making sure he doesn’t choke, I’m sure
