Sunday I ordered a Meiwa Kumquat and it is suppose to be here tomorrow.
I am very excited! I have not had any kumquats since I was a kid in Cali.
This one is suppose to do well in hotter climates. I asked a nursery in Selma to
find and order me a Satsuma tree also. They said she is still trying to get some in.
I hope she finds some. Or I will have to ask dh to drive me to north Al. to get one.
There is a U Pick farm that has some for sale.

So @ronott1, how in the world did you get so lucky!? You have a beautiful family.

I think I'm going to live after four + days of wondering. I get worried when I get noroviruses. I've wound up in the hospital twice due to dehydration and I tend to dehydrate very quickly.

So I gave up on food for two days and concentrated on keeping fluids going in. Anything to keep me out of the ER and it seems to have worked.

Next season, I'm stocking up on blackberry leaves when the new leaves come out and keeping them on hand for tea. Also need to restock on electrolyte replacement drinks.

Anyway, broody is still hanging in there. She was off the nest this morning when I fed and watered but was back on by the time I was finished. Tonight she gets her real eggs.

Weather is crappy. That pretty much describes it here. Everything yesterday this time was flooded. Today everything that was flooded is frozen. Temps in the mid 20s with more frozen nastiness coming in tonight with a winter weather advisory to go along with it.

I am SO ready for spring.

They are all great!

I think it has to do with the Irish Genes mixing with the Finnish Genes. We did not get the Tall Genes though...

I am glad that you are feeling better!

Ever hear about Epicor?

Micro glad your feeling better.

Bought time you kick the bug Micro I keep thanking my lucky star the bugs have not got us three

Thanks guys. I was doing good until I let my guard down with the hand sanitizer and forgot to use it after exiting a store. Scratched my nose and did a mental, oh crap, forgot my sanitizer ritual. Sure enough, 48 hours later I'm sick. My own fault.

No, Ron, not familiar with epicor. I use astragalus tincture though. Need to get back on it.

I've been reading some really scary stuff about Norovirus and the way it spreads and how long it can continue to spread even after you start to feel better.
