Where?
Right behind us. Just minutes after we left the "big" city. Seriously. It was terrible leaving town - high winds, wet leaves on the road, raining so hard we had to drive slow.
Passing through a smaller town, we had to pull over for four trucks leaving a fire station heading to the "big" city.
The next day, after we arrived home, and saw what had happened, our jaws dropped. We had just driven through the area of where a tornado took havoc, and tore up a trailer park area. Store signs ripped off, cars flipped over. . . but not one person injured thankfully.
It makes my hair stand up when I think about it. We could have been in that, had the girls taken 2-3 more minutes in the restroom. We are ever so grateful, and thankful that no one was injured.
As for the new sweet potato dish I wanted to try?
Not much to post today. I spent time scrubbing out the chicken watering unit, laundry and my list of chores yesterday. I didn't have enough hours to even get the list done. I'm not surprised.
However, I made the call to the insurance company. It took me several times to get a speaking person. I hate that anymore.
As for the recent medical bill?
Don't get sick. Don't get a crappy doctor, and above all, don't get bit by a venomous spider.
And dang it all. With that said, I couldn't get the free guinea hens. I'd have to spend money to feed them (and spend money on straw), and we can't do that right now. Urgh. I have wanted guineas for years.
Well, maybe another year. I mean we got the trees felled, and the big barn down, so I'm not giving up any hope here.
Also, the make up remover wipes (homemade) that I posted about, and loved? I shared the book too? Well, they grew mold on them. I had to toss them. A waste of supplies, but wanted to share so folks didn't waste money. I don't think you could add an essential oil if you are using them on your eyes either. I will stick with my goat's milk soap. Now I'm wondering if I should even waste ingredients on the facial cleanser recipe? Hm.
