Your welcome!

I set 50 eggs in it on April 22. I figure it will hold 65-75 eggs (hand turning).
I was planning to get a cabinet but after using the 1588...it doesnt make sense to spend that much $ Imho. And it came with the adapter to hook to a car battery if the electricity goes out. Im totally happy with it

What are your favorite Threads?

I always check this one and I stalk the Old Folks Home. Dorking, Phoenix, & Cochin threads. Camalids, then I head to the home to see what is rolling and I try to answer folks that only have one or two responses.

It is much easier on my desktop. I really need a new tablet. Mine keeps locking up.

Untill they are about ten or twelve years old I wouldnt assume what I have said to them would stick.

Just recently there was a twelve year old girl in a very affluent neighborhood who an abduction was attempted... she screamed and kicked and bit and got away.... she was lucky. They caught the guy and she id'd him. It wasnt his first rodeo either.... Whoa!!!

I had a co worker... very nice man very knowledgeable in his field... He and his wife were divorced.... We called him Ant man because he loved the character and always wore those sunglasses that covered his eyes. Two kids and he had custody.

He came in one day complaining about the bill after a shopping trip with is daughter. She was thirteen. and he allowed her to shop at Victoria Secret....

. They do sell clothes but not the kind of clothes for a thirteen year old to wear to school.... at least not MY thirteen year old.

Not a month after that his daughter complained that a guy in a car was following her as she walked home from school. Ant happened to be on his way to work so he turned around and caught the guy. Yeah, that was good he was able to catch the guy!

But DANG. I saw pictures of his girl.... Dress meaning clothing, Makeup and attitude... I would have sworn she was around eighteen. Yeah, I know what you mean; I've seen those girls!

These days you cannot make yourself a target.... I have been mugged. it wasnt fun and my fault for getting knocked down too. But it definately was my fault for not being aware of my surroundings. Heck I was walking from the hair dresser to the drug store... about five hundred feet across the parking lot. Digging in my purse for a dollar to rent a video... Yep that long ago....

I had just stepped up on the sidewalk infront of the drug store and this young man about six foot tall came running up to me... I thought he was late for work up at Costco... and was going to pass. He hit me in the shoulder and hooked my purse... his mistake. I do not let go of ropes.... years with horses. He came to the end I set my weight and at the time then even it was considerable. I set my weight in to the ground it was body memory on my part. he had to tug a couple of times before he pulled me over. I kept hold of that rope.... (purse handle) and he gave up.

He dragged me about two feet too. 300 lbs of dead weight does wonders. Bwhahahaha. But the deal was the trolly had just opened up a spur into Santee. The detective that took my desposition and description said he had done this in this area before. Thank goodess I didnt have my then 2 year old son with me....

I can't believe YOU got mugged!!!!
Actually, you're safer with your child with you than you are alone. The younger the better, as long as you're holding him/her. If you have a kid in a stroller, you're not as safe as if you have a baby in your arms or wearing him/her in a baby sling.

All the abduction stuff a cares me to death. I don't worry about my son any more, he's 16 and a black belt but my 14 year old daughter worries the bejebbies out of me. I just have to let go and let God.

Yeah, and teach her to be aware of her surroundings, to be leery of others (especially men and boys, but also women) and teach her how to defend herself. Run, scream, kick, bite, fight back; NEVER get in a car. If someone's got a gun, run away, especially in a zig zag pattern.
Sorry. But I think it's important for those of us who can be considered vulnerable to know how to protect and defend ourselves, especially when we don't have someone else around to do it for us.

. I can't sleep, no one is on my favorite threads and I think my tablet is slowly dying.

Aw

The humidity read on mine was about 5% off upon plug in, but easy to recalibrate.
