thanks, just came back in we collected a dozen eggs today

all 4 of my cuckoo girls are laying- collected 4 eggs today- each one is different enough that it would be easy to tell them apart if I knew who laid what

Hi, where in SE PA are you? I am from there. I have a brother and mother in Kennett Square and another brother in Nottingham, with a lot of Amish neighbors.

Small world! Our elementary school, bank n super market are all in Kennett Square (aka Mushroom Capitol of the World). We live just a smidge North of there. : )

Would it make you feel better if I told you it was 7 out this morning around 6:30 am and has warmed up to 21, some of the snow is starting to melt off our black top driveway!

NOPE, because I still feel like poop! I've lost my voice which is making the family rejoice!

Vicki, it is all in my sinus. I will be lucky if I don't end up with an ear infection. I already checked and the doctor's office will be closed until the Wed after Christmas... I NEED to be doing stuff, not nursing a head cold!

Wow, I'll have to look you up if I ever get back there again. I've developed an aversion to flying, so I don't go back very often. The last few times, I've driven back and camped along the way and back. It is pretty hard on my neck now to do all that driving.

Funny thing, I hated mushrooms when I was growing up and didn't develop a taste for them until after I moved out here. Now I love them and sometimes go hunting for the wild edibles in the mountains around here.

yup, that's exactly what it was for me. The best luck I have for keeping from getting an ear infection is to sleep at an incline so that your sinus cavities can't fill up as full overnight.
