    Why did my ducklings die?

    One of my broody hens hatched out about 11 ducklings last Tuesday. As of this morning all of them have died. I was only able to catch one of them before and it seemed very lethargic. It would lose balance and thrust its head back repeatedly. I only had it for about 45 minutes before it died...

    Did I poison my chickens?

    We've been re-siding my house and found a large nest of carpenter ants underneath one of the windows. Well, my husband then proceeded to spray the ants and knock them out of the house onto the ground. The chickens of course came running to this awesome feast! Now, my husband also informs me...

    Using lard instead of shortening

    I've been searching for a biscuit recipe that I can use up my lard supply with. I just remembered about this one and tried it last night. It has just become our family's official bisicuit! I haven't tried to freeze any yet, they just don't seem to get to the freezer. So yummy!

    Inland Empire - Small Question

    My FIL is in the Redlands area and wanted to get some chicks this year. Since he seems to be research disabled, and thinks I'm his secretary , I told him I would find out where the local feed stores were if I could. So, does anyone know where the local feed stores are and if any of them have...

    Any carpet cleaning experts out there?

    I've been trying to get my husband to rip it out since we moved in four years ago. He keeps saying he will - someday! Someone actually put this in over linoleum too. Why in the world would someone prefer this? Most of it seems to have come up just with vacuuming really really well. That...

    Any carpet cleaning experts out there?

    Because I have a whole bunch of make-up all over my carpet and haven't a clue how to get it out. There's blush, mineral eye shadow, and a whole ton of water-proof mascara. Why do people put carpet in bathrooms anyway?

    Trying to Clean House

    I think the kitchen might be my goal for the day. I'll just keep repeating in my head: Shine sink, shine sink, shine sink. And then I'll yell at the kids: Pick up the floor, pick up the floor, pick up the floor. Who do you think gets to play the Wii first?

    Well, I'll tell you what we named my boys. If you like them then thanks, if not then it's my husbands fault and I had nothing to do with it. I can gaurentee you probably won't come across another one any time soon. My oldest is Tuckerby Sawyer and my younger is Danner Kiernan. I actually had...

    Does anyone else wonder why it's called a silent migraine when it has such a loud presence in our lives?

    Any Rock Geeks?

    This is tooo funny. I'm teaching the kids all about igneous rocks today. We've had a whole week on volcanoes. Tomorrow we get to build one. Today we get to make lava cakes. But today we get to study rocks. I loved going to Trona with my geology club in college. But I'm not a rock nerd...

    Trying to Clean House

    Flylady has tools for everything. And she will try to sell them to you too! Personally, I just keep restarting the program again and again and again. Each time something new sticks. So far I've got the whole get dressed down to the shoes thing down pretty well. And the load dishwasher...

    Trying to Clean House

    Sometimes the cookies stop working for me. I mean, how many Oreos can one eat, really? So I move on to dark chocolate covered peanut M&M's. The kids will also work for swedish fish. Though for them I just try to pick a random number and have them pick up that much stuff at a time. Usually...

    Who loves snow? :)

    DH wants to move to Alaska. I told him he could and I'd visit him in the summer. I don't do snow.

    Trying to Clean House

    The best thing about flylady is her 15 minute rule. Only work for 15 minutes at a time in one room. Then eat a cookie. Go to another room. Work for 15 minutes. Eat a cookie. Repeat. I love this rule. Sometimes you even see a difference in my house at the end of the day. Sometimes just...

    Let the games begin!....Teething baby, all nighter

    Love me some teething tablets. Between those and the motrin I got through my last monster, er, sweetheart. I find them in my grocery store in the "natural foods and remedies" section. You know, for the hippie-dippie people. ETA: I heard Conan O'Brian say once when he was still on that his...

    Silent Migraines

    I get them. They are only one of the types of migraines I get. I have patches of skin that will randomly go numb, or just "go to sleep." I get the auras and the fuzziness in the head as well. I forget words, though I blame that on my current medication. I've actually had the whole left side...
