What made you sad or mad today?

I am sad and mad because it rained all day and I was all alone so I read and watched movies and took a nap and ate all the leftovers so I didn't have to make anything.
I know that doesn't sound too awful but I am supposed to be exercising and eating better.

They raised my water bill this month from 70 pesos to 100 pesos. Thats from about 6 dollars to about 9 dollars a month. Everything goes up except wages.

That is true, too true. Wages are actually going down.

Thats for sure. Especially gas keeps going up, a person cant afford to drive anymore.

Some things are going up, eggs are out of sight and some meats have gone up. I heard on the news just today that one third of the US is at the poverty level. I dont know how they figure that, according to what they say Ive been on the poverty level all my life.

Eggs went up here too ( $ 3 and over ) which in my opinion is OBSCENE .......i now buy them at Walgreens for .99 which they sell as a " loss leader " along w/their milk...

Recently tried Duck eggs here for the first time.....a local farmer sells them for a $1.00 a piece, but they're so huge, ( one is equal to about 3 medium eggs ) and the YELLOWIST /ORANGE beautiful yolks....

Duck eggs are supposed to be very good for reducing cholesterol.

Right you are! ( it's the " lecithin " found in egg yolks that breaks down cholestorol ) that's why dogs never get gallstones, their bodies manufacture lecithin and ours don't...

Soooo, eating those " yolkless insipid white omelettes " is a yolk!...whoops, i meant joke

Even though we never get hot weather often in England, this afternoon was quite warm and heat really irritates me

Another thing that has annoyed me is the internet connection! It has taken me three attempts just to click on this topic to post a reply. Other than that today has been okay. ( Knowing my luck, now I have said that it will turn worse)

My grandparents raised ducks, the eggs are filling for sure. And they made great home made ice cream with them too.

Part of the neighbors tarp came off of their hay shed and blew into my yard, my brat dog Sam got hold of it and tore it to pieces and its all over the yard. Anyone want a brat dog?
