It was warmer this morning, all of 6 degrees but at least it was above zero. Instead of walking I just went over to visit with mom. I had to show her the label of the eggs I bought at Sams and we both had a good laugh. These eggs are really special, they are from pasture fed hens and then came the funny part. The label said these hens are provided a wholesome vegetarian diet! We both laughed at that. Don't believe me? check the label.
You see if they REALLY are only fed a vegetarian diet, how could they be on pasture without eating the bugs, flies and other insects. Everyone knows chickens eat bugs and I would not consider bugs as vegetables. What a joke! Do the people that made this label think we are really stupid? Only after buying them did I get the message from Cheryl that she had some eggs available. I will say though, these pasture raised egg yolks were a dark orange and tasted good. After breakfast Mark and I went to the barn to give it a good cleaning as we have a group coming in tomorrow. When we walked into the living area we heard the smoke detector in the bedroom beeping. I sent Diane a text to let her know I was going to borrow her 8 foot ladder again so we could change the battery. The ceilings in that bedroom are almost 12 foot high. I used the golf cart to get her ladder and had it up ready for Mark as he had the battery only when he opened it there was no battery.
He screwed it back on and the beeping stopped so we are not sure why it ever started beeping. Mark noticed we needed the ladder for another problem. In the living room, the wifi distributor on the ceiling had been knocked and was hanging down.
Mark climbed back up to put that in place but couldn't figure out how it was attached so sent a message to Philip. We left the ladder and I'll return that in the morning. Our guests for the foaling apartment arrived and thought they could live with the smell. The air purifier is supposed to arrive between 7:00 am and 11:00 am tomorrow morning. If they decide they need it, they will need to leave for a couple hours. After lunch I drove to the elevator to pick up the eggs. They also had some duck eggs so I got a dozen of those for Karin. When I dropped them off at mom's house Beth and Greg were there visiting. It as nice to see them again. They are only here for a few days so I'm glad they stopped in. From there I drove to Bartonville to do my Sunday dinner shopping at Aldi. I decided on hay stacks for that dinner and bought the ingredients for that but also for the dessert I need to make for potluck tomorrow night. When the groceries were put away we worked on bringing more wood in from the wood shed. Tonight is supposed to be our last cold night for a while.
