I agree That is always good.

I actually buy my bird seeds at the supermarket but I buy the suet cakes on line. Have plenty for now so don't need to buy.

I also get some food for the dog at the supermarket so that all gets counted in my grocery bill. Not supermarket dog food but raw chicken wings and chicken gizzards which I feed raw to the dog. Of course I eat chicken wings also but of course mine I cook.

Thankful to be alive. Wrecked my truck this morning when I hit black ice. I literally managed to walk away after cutting the seat belt and went to work. Moving around kept the aches away a lot longer.

I actually rolled it down an embankment. I've hit black ice before but never like that. I don't care to again.

I am glad you are OK. I am not so much afraid of driving in snow, but just the thought of hitting black ice makes me stay home.
I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.

Same here. Snow is no big deal. I can actually get traction in snow but not ice.

Amanda, my DS totaled his pickup truck last year in almost exactly the same fashion. He is still extremely wary of driving on slick roads. Take care! I'm so glad you weren't hurt. Group hug

Some aches here and there but all minor and more annoying than anything. Was back at work today and just didn't do any heavy lifting. I wanted to be out and moving around so I don't stiffen up and make things worse.
