funny thing that.... she called this morning and I was just out of the shower and feeling very wobbly. She started to telll me that grandma was hungry and I had to give her a hard boiled egg..... My answer thank you i will handle grandma s breakfast. then I aplogised to her about yelling at her the other day. Then I told her When I got home and had just sat down she NEVER even asked me how I felt of if I wanted to go to bet.... I had no frame of reference when she started telling me about pulling stuff out of the freezer.. .

She apologiezed back and said... Well its just that I had this horrible headache.... then she started telling me grandma was hungry again. I said the longer we talk the longer it will take for me to fix her something. Last thing I heard from her on the phone before it clikked off.... "I love you"

I rarely say it as punctuation.... because it feels disingenuous I said it back.

Quote: Sour I read something recently that I try to keep in my head when I receive a compliment from DH. It said something like believe it when someone you love tells you how beautiful/handsome you are because to them you are. I have a hard time seeing how I look (I don't hate my looks but I do not feel anywhere close to beautiful) through the eyes of DH but for him I try to believe it because I know he truly means it. Since his and my opinions only matter when it comes to that in my mind, I accept his compliment and believe it is truth to him. It only strengthens our love for each other (minus the times we irk the heck out of each other).
 
Got to get out and see if chickens are still alive. Then more coffee.
Minus 40-50 below windchill last night. -18 actual temp right now...

Similar here, everyone made it. I just let them out a few minutes ago. Only a few brave souls wanted out.

I have a remote sensor in the coop, it is 17F out there. That is a good 10 degrees warmer than yesterday. I don't let my flock out until 8 AM central on Saturdays or Sundays (unless I have to leave the house earlier than that) because I have neighbors that tolerate my chickens, and I want to keep it that way, so mine are still inside. They were out yesterday with the colder temperatures for brief periods....like those when I was outside with a warm can of corn or some sunflower seeds.
