Movie ...Kris's place

Aprons..

 Betty this is your old time apron...it is blue and pink...or peach..

 here is the back...The ties thread through button holes..

 This one with frogs is for Erin....I thought she would really like it...

 

Last Resort!

Today I made a wooden sign and laid against our mail box. It said EGGS 4 SALE! Eggs at Walmart are always at least $2.00 a dozen here and the brown ones are about $4. a dozen.
I took a folding table, an umbrella, (cause it is sprinkling),  a coffee can with a slit in the top of it marked MONEY, A bunch of Wal Mart bags, A basket of about 70 eggs, and  A sign on a piece of cardboard that says' MY Grand kids are selling Farm  Fresh Range eggs...$2.00 a bakers dozen on the honor system...

With any luck we will sell some of these eggs. If not maybe someone really needs them and just takes them.

  We have eggs coming out of our ears! The only egg eater in the family is in Japan.  I have given eggs away to anyone and everyone....The kids have a friend over, I ask, "Do you eat eggs" whither they say yes or no I say take these home to your Mama.... A repair man comes, he leaves with a dozen eggs. I gave a dozen to the mail man last week when I saw him coming I ran inside and grabbed a dozen. Every time we empty a milk jug I cut the top off of it and put 18 eggs in it then tie them in a WalMart sack and tell one of the kids to take them to their teacher. We are out of chicken feed. I do not think we should buy anymore till winter. I told this to Kris she thought I was crazy. She said it is only $18.00 a bag and that is cheaper than dog food...AND MOM THESE ARE THE KIDS PETS!... So we buy more feed and get more eggs. It is a vicious circle.

Today when I woke up I decided I had done to much yesterday because my chest hurt so I was not going to do any work today. I did clean out the chicken pen. Now I am going to make aprons for the rest of the day. Oh Yes, and I did clean the kitchen and straighten up the house a bit. AND did the egg thing...

I think I heard a car door shut. Maybe they are taking all of the eggs..
The chickens are out running free and I am ready to sew.

It was a working day today...

I raked the sticks and picked up a big trash container full, having Michael jump on it a few times. I could barely roll it...I tilled up some spots and planted 3 rose bushes, I tilled around the garden. Then the tiller stopped. I am not sure it may just have been out of gas...Si I decided I would just hoe....BIG MISTAKE! I do not like to hoe..Kris got home and watered the little garden. She pulled me some white radishes because she did not know I had all ready pulled some...I just ate them too..I quit at 3 because I was wore out! I took a hot bath and drank a glass of wine. Since then I have been on the computer.


Kris picked up the 2 little ones from school. Mike is in my room with me and he is studying. Kris just got home.

Kenzie has a track meet tonight and it is out of town so    she will be home late. So I will have my room to myself tonight.

The chickens have been loose all day. I think one of the babies is laying somewhere in the yard. She was cackling coming from the corner of the yard. I could not find a nest and no Pat I was not looking in the trees.

This Morning

These are some pictures that Kris took of the door displays she made for the teachers...

This morning there were 2 squirrels on the porch...Here are some pictures I took of them while I was standing in the door way

Reaping the rewards...I ate them all. I love the white ones and it had been years since I had got to eat a white one.

another door cover that was out of place..

 

 

Good news. I can really tell my right side of my chest is better. I can breathe deep without pain pills and I can raise my arm a little without it hurting to much....And my foot and toes were itching last night...Yippee Skippie!
