➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Would you listen to a doctor if they told you you needed to?

Maybe, but it would make me a lot more isolated, and a lot more depressed.

I'll probably end up panhandling for a living.

Our farmers market was hopping today! I got peaches, potatoes, tomatoes, yellow squash, zucchini, cheese, milk, & sausage.

Btw... does anyone else feel guilty at the small farmers markets when you pass some vendor booths without buying anything or is this just a weird condition I have?

Never. One look at the price tags assuages any doubtful feelings I may have about not purchasing from them. They cater to the city folk that travel in, and their prices reflect that! I prefer to go direct to the sources. It's much cheaper.

Does you mom know this?

It's what I've told her I feel like, and I also told the therapist that I was seeing before he quit. For me to have a job, it would probably need to have flexible hours, which the only jobs that I'll probably ever be qualified for, such as fast food, don't have.

Since i know i would just waste most of that good for you stuff i dont feel too bad but if im looking too close at something and we talk about it then im doomed.

Also much worse feeling at livestock swaps. I hate to see critters in bad shape and often know some things id like to try to fix it. Closing my flock after certification helped cuz now i have a good Reason to say no but at one time the motley crew was my backyard. I have an album of the 2016 coturnix rescue on here. They laid inside of 1 wk for me but he had had them 7 months without collecting a single egg their conditions were just so bad. I dont think they had ever seen dust before they were so Greasy, he told me he had been regularly Hosing them off .

The last rescue was 4 buttons from my local feed store. I went in for one cot for the loner i had due to the gnat fiasco and these things were All bare backed half of em openly bleeding waaaay too many cramed in a little fishtank. I went home with 7 birds in total

We don't have city folk here and our vendors are the sources. They little old folks who've grown and produced things in their gardens, greenhouses, homesteads, etc. Just little people trying to make themselves a little extra money off of something they are good at. Today we literally had 6 vendors there. I'm thinking my farmers market and your farmers market are nothing alike.

Both of my brothers are computer nerds.
They make well over 6 figures and both sit at home, in their underwear, to work.
And guess what...one only completed high school. The other did graduate college.

That really isn't something I think I would want to or even could do for a living. I couldn't do programming. A lot of it is the same type of reasoning as math, and that's where I'm weak.

Took me two seconds to swallow this without even tasting it.

100 times better than a popsicle.
