ONE STEP FORWARD~

As night falls so does the temperature...
I have spent the majority of last week flat smack on the living room couch...I fear a permanent indent remains...This virus is one where "one step forward and two back" applies...only rising to let Winslow Homer in and out...dare I say the television kept me company...Oh the things I have learned...Snooki delivered a baby boy named Lorenzo who's father feared when his son nursed the breast milk  would be chocolate milk, due to the fact that Snooki consumed too much chocolate...backwoods mountain moonshiners have their own television show, as well as people who attempt to catch  catfish by wrestling them in the muddy water, you have Preppers readying themselves for doomsday, TAPS  investigating paranormal activity...Sister Wives allows us into the world of polygamy...I admit here and now I watched a few minutes of each...you can get sucked in if you're not careful...honestly, I shake my head and wonder who the audience is that watches these programs...Tomorrow... thank the good Lord I am back in the world of Elmo...but sadly... even Elmo now has issues...what has become of our world...it makes me feel very sad...lost is the innocence of childhood...So...   I have had few ventures out into the world since coming down with the flu...Mr. Dog Trot escorted me to Walmart yesterday (the chickens were in need of collard greens and kale) and Tractor Supply for a seed block...during the winter months it is not unusual for hens to slow or even stop their egg production,  my girls have continued to lay quite nicely... seven to eight eggs daily...I believe in TLC and reap it's rewards...So there you have it my week in words...and may I offer a bit of advice...get yourself a flock of chicken and unplug that TV...stay well friends...
