My leukemia's back.

Rachel, that has to be so discouraging. But if I've learned anything about you, it would be how resilient you are. So just keep hanging on -

Good morning everyone

Looks like a chilly weekend coming up for us. We got about 1.5" of snow yesterday (thanks for sending it @Blooie lol) with more predicted.

Hope you all have a good day!

 

[Blooie]

Well, you asked....kinda sorta.....we got 6 inches this time so we took our share first before we sent it on down.

Hi Phil, any news on your wife? Been thinking about you guys.

No word yet.... But i figure soon.

Dealing with a "No water" issue today

Dealing with a "No water" issue today

Frozen/burst pipes? Or something else? No water stinks.

Honey and I were talking about the well at the place we were looking at, and the possibility of trucking in water, potable vs non-potable. I pointed out, in this family we really didn't need much potable water---we all drink soda

. Just kidding, but it's kind of true. Well, the soda is going to get cut down during our next few months of reduced income. So, good thing we have a good well here on our little acre.

Trying to get my head around staying here for a while. I think something may have to give with the animals, we'll see. making no decisions about that right now.

And, resisting the urge to fire up the incubator. Not a good time! Good thing the Locusts don't ever read this, that's where I've been hiding treats the last month or so--right in plain sight, but they never look in there. They found pretty much all my other hiding places, little buggers. Speaking of which, I think there are chocolate chips to go in the banana bread I'm going to make. Rainy day today, makes me want to bake.

I hope everyone is having a warm, sunny day! And for those who aren't, well,..........fake it, I guess

Thought I'd share these with you all (I stole them off another thread, don't rat me out):







I have to make a trip to our grocery store today. The have the thunder and rain showers in the produce aisle. I hope they don't see this one and get any ideas for their other aisles!

Quote: Phil, hope your water situation gets fixed without a lot of expense or hard work.

Rachel, here's a few new hidey places for you: Hide those treats in the freezer in an empty veggie bag. Hide them in your bureau drawers. How bout in your canning kettle, or other pots and pans?

I've done the freezer, but not in a decoy bag. I've got some stuff stashed in the drawers. I tried the big black enamel canning pot, they found that. I've tried the veggie crisper, old cooler chests in the garage, the troughs I used as brooders (empty, of course!), and various other places. Ice cream is the biggie. Kind of hard to hide that in a drawer, but when they find it they just eat right through it. I've gone to going down a few layers in the chest freezer and putting it there. Problem is, then I forget it's there
