INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

I seem to have lost all my quotes.....

I have one of the EXTREMELY few houses in California that has a basement.  It currently has a dirt floor, and on the rare occasion we get rain - the water bubbles up and it becomes very slippery clay.  So, until we can pour a concrete floor, we don't store too much stuff down there.  The basement is the only way to get to the crawl space underneath our house.  

I only broke fingers, toes and a rib growing up.  Needed stitches twice.  But not too many ER trips.  My brother broke his arm.  Overall we weren't as brutal on our bodies as some of you (or your kids) were.  

But, we had WAY more chances to injure ourselves back then - no seat belts, helmets weren't required, riding in the back of pick up trucks.  It's a wonder how any of us survived....lol

It sure is.

Yikes! (about the basement thing) and I was born right around the time they were changing all those laws... So I don't have any memories of all that stuff like that, but my mother in law, grandmother, and husband do, and they like to share the stories with the kids! LOL

Although - I do remember one time where I got this great idea to use my rottweiler, with a skateboard... to ride around the block. It worked *great* until she saw a cat. I came home scraped head to toe, and too embarrassed to tell anyone.

Thanks.

My daughter's been running out ot the coop every hour to see if another egg has been laid to add to her egg collection now. She doesn't quite believe me, that since we have a history of usually two eggs per day amongst 4 hens, that the odds of getting more than the 2 she already collected was slim... but it hasn't stopped her from checking. lol

I love watching her excitement.

love it! my daughter wants to check for eggs but ours lay on the top of our hay pile, very high up

The doctors told us once the elbow gets pulled out, it happens much easier the next time. We got very careful and it didn't happen again.

lol, brothers arent so careful

thundering guess that means I will catch you all when the leaves dry again

bye sally!!!

Actually, upstairs may be a good option too - besides me having to run up the stairs 5-11x a day. haha. But, if I get my heart rate up, it would count as exercise, right? JK

great source of exercise!

You got it!

Home made beef-chicken-turkey hamburgers with grilled marinated chicke and a variety of salads!

Today's late lunch.
There's about 40 extra large boiled crawfish in that pot. I think I'll be eating it tomorrow too.

Not so far, our house is brick and like 30+ years old. We have done pretty extensive remodeling on the inside, and haven't found any. The inspection when we bought the house hadn't found any either, luckily.

As to the first comment, I'm assume you can find a house in Texas with a basement, somewhere. LOL But, where we live, you are lucky to find a house with a garage.

There are almost no houses around here WITHOUT a basement. I've never lived in one.
It is surprising how few there are in tornado alley.

lunch main meal is smart, but how is that practical with working

Europeans and Mid Easterners don't care about that. A large peaceful meal is more important.

O no no not me!
This is better

I love African dance. They taught it at my kid's elementary school.

Most physical activity counts as exercise.
