Today the kids and I are all sick with the flu. We stayed home and did some laundry and cleaned up a little. It's nice & warm, so I opened the windows to air out the house. Collected 6 eggs from the hens. This past weekend, we adopted 3 more baby chicks. (1 is a rooster) They are so cute & fuzzy. Just love them!

Have to try to get back into the habit of blogging. It keeps me in a frugal "mindset". Today I washed 2 loads of laundry in cold water with only 1 tablespoon of detergent in each load. I have just opened a Box of Sun, 150 loads. I'm trying to see how long it will last. Was able to deposit $70 in savings today. Our EF is slowly growing.
