Welllllll.... hubby’s relief had trouble with his flight so now hubby doesn’t get to leave until in the morning :-(.

I got a camera on the eggs though so we should get notifications when something starts happening... the original hatch date was estimated tomorrow afternoon but with the power outage, it could drag out until Friday I suppose... one thing is certain, if they are not turkeys, they still have at least a 28 day incubation time:))

Hope you’re reunited with hubby soon. Those surprise eggs need to get cracking. Can’t wait to see what’s inside!

Ok. Now I have to figure out where to go on utube???...I usually go to music videos. I might be able to post it from my phone though which would be the least complicated. I am a dufus on a computer.

You’ll need an account.

Human X-Ray warning for those that are squeamish!!!


I broke my toe last November and it never healed as the break was awkward, I had surgery on it and they drilled pin to help it fuse, 6 weeks later it’s all healed :D

Can’t see the pic, but glad the doctors nailed it.

Good mornooning, roommates!
Our long weekend starts tomorrow. Fortunately, I’m sending husband and daughter off to a movie night tomorrow and will have tapas with a friend.

Then, on Friday, there’s the biggest farm animal show in Denmark happening right around the corner, and I have a guest card for that, to snap a few pictures. Might get to see our Crown Princess Mary, the Australian wife of the Danish Crown Princess Frederik.

On Saturday is husband’s 40th birthday. We might go out into the fjord on a Viking ship, if it doesn’t rain (much) that day.

And on Sunday we’re having braai with our South African friends. Not Carol, unfortunately, but I like them anyway. :)

If you don’t not see me till Monday, you know why. [emoji33]

Good Wednesday everyone. How are you all doing? It is the middle of the week. Yayyyyy. I have tomorrow to work then I am off from work for three days. Hubby and I are going to Swellendam for Friday and Saturday. So looking forward to some time away.

Sounds fun! I don’t know what’s in Swellendam but get-a-ways are always a nice diversion from life.

Exactly and I believe they are starting whaling for commercial use again in July because they say whale numbers have recovered enough for them to do it.
Shameful!! :(
Let them eat whale meat ...... It is known that it is toxic with all the heavy metals and other chemicals it contains. Hopefully people get sick from eating the whale meat before whales are eredicated.

Baaaaaaaack from the big kayak adventure. Grass cutting time. Tree chopping.

One sad note. On our kayaking trips, we discovered THREE dead sea turtles. Two very large ones (maybe 200 lbs) and one youngster (1-2 lbs). Very sad to see. I took a few snaps that I’ll share, but just warning you it’s not pretty. First time in 10 years plus of paddling that Ive seen dead sea turtles. :-(

I’ll find a pix or two of some deserted sandy beach islands that we traveled to as well.

Out to cut the lawn.

Enjoy your Wednesday.

You are lucky to be young and still growing. These things heal quickly at your age. Surgery and GCSEs simultaneously are a tough ride though!

I suspect you are at the stage of eating your family out of house and home now. My son aged sixteen was dreadful. My weekly shopping bill halved when he went to university. He stopped growing at a fraction short of 6 foot 6 inches (2 metres)

Tapas is a Spanish speciality. Small portions of savoury dishes served usually with drinks. Could be anything, but always tasty :)

After my son joined the Air Force and moved out of the house, I was amazed to learn that food kept in the refrigerator actually spoiled and got moldy! That never happened while he lived here.
