Been quite ill the last few days, and under the weather for several days before that. I no longer have a job to get to, so have just been trying to get lots of rest and fluid rather than taking drugs to make me feel better. Being Sick Sucks bigtime. I did get a small load of laundry washed, we were running out of our toilet cloth! and I did get bread baked yesterday, which was a hit. Gerry has been doing everything else, or it isn't getting done.
Update. The above was written 2 days ago, and I was too sick to finish it. Yesterday, I did not write at all, barely went on the computer, to tell you the truth. Today, I am much better, and tomorrow, I should be able to help move hay for the horses, who are going through the hay MUCH faster than the oxen are.
We have lost Jake, he had to go back home. We miss him, and hope to see him again in January when he will be taking his GED test. We miss you, rottinkid!
We have 9 inches of snow on the ground, 8 of which fell yesterday and last night. No birds came out to eat yesterday in that storm, and we have been entertained all day by the flocks today. Tomorrow, the snow is supposed to stop, but it is still falling right now. Yin and Yang have been unwilling to be outside at all today, the babies!!!
Gerry and I talked it over, and we decided to go ahead and order Morgan Spurlock's entire 30 Days series we were liking it so much. Some people may think that Netflix is a waste of money when we are getting out of debt. Au Contraire! It has saved us so much money while allowing us to continue to become educated about things that matter to us. And I used to buy DVDs that sounded like I would like them, or Gerry would like them. Now, we watch them and only if we REALLY want them to we go ahead and find them on Amazon. Serious money savings, WELL worth the $10.00/month. So far, this is what we have found we don't want to do without because we saw them first on Netflix.
Earthlings-documentary. Seriously, you MUST see this. It is even free on the internet.
Food, Inc.-documentary. Seriously, you MUST see this, too. but it is not free on the internet.
Stupidity-documentary about stupidity.
30 Days Series- television show of documentaries of people going into situations that would make them uncomfortable and learning about other people who live that way. FANTASTIC!
Vicar of Dibley Series- English television series, stupendously funny, tears streaming down our cheeks, Gerry laughing out loud funny.
Forgiving the Franklins- Comedy with a sobering message/lesson.
We've seen gobs and gobs more that we loved on Netflix, these are just the ones we weren't content to watch and not have always. So far.
Well, that's all for tonight. Until we meet again, be good to yourself, be kind to your loved ones, be frugal, be green, be cruelty-free, be wise. I'll see you tomorrow.
