See? That's what the cheapies mean. Now that you've done all that, you can get "free eggs" AND free chicks! So why should THEY have to pay extra for them? Some lightweights REALLY don't get it!

(Snorts) yeah, I 'hear ya'......

I’m so glad that my husbands coworkers and friends truly appreciate when I give them free eggs. They know they weren’t free even if they didn’t pay for them.

Thank you and sorry too, I can be just as blunt too if a bit.... um... wordy . The migraines have gotten worse over the past couple years probably related to my condition and triggered by changes with weather. Didn't used to have them at all. Yesterday was one of my worst ones so far, it's hard to describe but it really ran me over. I had to take a timeout for about half the day. The last doctor I saw prescribed something for migraines but it made them happen more often so I dunno...

Wordy huh?
Join the club. Be sure to never be on the receiving end of a PM chain with me because you asked me a simple question.... perhaps about growing roses or baking gluten free.
A couple people here can attest to you wordy doesn't even begin to describe....
Trust me, we'll take you just as you are.

And I'm sorry about the migraines. I used to get them often and the medicines my Docs had me try made me sick so I had to tough them out for years. The frequency is much lower these days, and I've learned my triggers, but I still have to just tough them out. They suck.

...
The best case scenario is knowing the kid has self-drive for discovery that out weighs the current laziness gene......

Ain't that the truth!!

My soon to be 8th grader is asking me if I'll consider it .....

My oldest wants to be homeschooled and I told him the only way he will be homeschooled by us is if he proves himself now during this whole pandemic. He hasn’t been lazy with homework yet

There is an engineer on another site I'm on that can take ten minutes to tell you how he changed a light bulb. Really good guy he can lay down a lot of details and back ground when he tells a story, He gives a really good explanation when answering a question though.

Mine has been great about the schoolwork. Ahead of nearly all classmates even according to the teachers. Everything else? .....not so much.

Haha. I was gluten free for a year, before it became so widespread and before there were so many gluten free labeled options available in the store. My mom is gluten free now and she complains about variety or not being able to find stuff sometimes and I just look at her. Like back in the day the only things I could ever find was gluten free frozen bread and red mill baking products, everything else I had to research and stick with those brands & products.

I have multiple autoimmune diseases, migraines are truly evil but just one of many nuisances that pop up. Speaking of triggers mine are usually triggered by weather changes but light and temperature fluctuations also do it too.

In other news, we let the chickens out of the run to "free range" the fenced backyard for the first time yesterday evening it was awesome! They were totally entertained. One followed me all around the yard and loves to be picked up so looks like I have at least one spoiled rotten chicken fan. I really hope she is a pullet and not a cockerel *fingers crossed*. I haven't seen any pics of dark brahma pullets that look quite like this one, I'm hoping it's just a poor TSC hatchery quality issue...
