I guess I could look into getting a smartphone. I just never even use the phone I have now!

You said you don't have cable, but do you have internet service? How's the cell service in your area? Where I am, cell service sucks so I need internet service/wifi for my smartphone. Otherwise it would not connect or would take forever to connect.

I could get cable...I just don't want it!
And I do have internet and a landline Cell service doesn't exist out here...I have to drive 2 miles up the road just to get my texts and listen to my voicemail

How's your recovery from the accident?

Miss @AmberLops,

Have you considered getting a radio that can pick up NOAA weather alerts? That way you will be notified of severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, etc. If you get a smart phone and have WiFi, you can use your phone to call, as long as you are within range of the WiFi.

And to address Miss @RollingAcres' question, how is your recovery going?

I can look into getting a radio for weather alerts. It would be nice to at least know what the storm is and when it's hitting!
And recovery is going well, thanks for asking. Had a dr appointment today and things are looking just fine. I am stuck with some bad headaches though but dr says they should be gone in a couple weeks. Ribs are still sore but not too bad

I WANT TO LIVE HERE!
Is this not the cutest and sweetest thing you've ever seen???

My netherland dwarf doe Pepper had her first litter tonight!
She had 2...one stillborn and one healthy black kit! She was actually bred to my Lionhead buck for her first litter because my Netherland Dwarf bucks are iffy with new girls
I'm hoping the little guy makes it. I don't really have anyone who can foster the kit if it doesn't work out with Pepper...I was counting on Mavis's litter but if I have to i'll put them in with one of my Angora litters.
Speaking of Mavis who had a stuck kit yesterday...she is doing better today. She's happy and acting normal, I still feel the retained kit in her but after all the helpful advice from you guys, i'm not too worried now
Spent the entire day shopping...I do all my shopping every 2 weeks in the big city...Kroger, Walmart, Petco, and Aldi.
I left at 10 and got back at 5:30...I've had my share of the outside world

Watching all those bunnies, my first thought is overpopulation. I didn't see any baby bunnies, maybe they are neutered?

Shopping all day......I am not much of a shopper. I am not one of those "professional shoppers" that shops for something to do. I have plenty to do! By your consolidating it all in one day, you get it done and you don't have to fool with it for another 2 weeks. Since we are retired, my husband shops with me. He slows me down a lot, he looks at everything, reads labels (why did I ever teach him that?) and wants to buy a lot of junk. I can go down several aisles, returning to the cart to deposit my items, while he is still selecting the perfect loaf of bread with the furtherest out "eat by" date on it. He enjoys shopping, I just want to get in, grab stuff and get out. We went to Aldi's this week, spent a whopping $100! LOL

I try for the every two weeks also, and have learned that DH slows me down also...So now I go alone, get what I have on the list and get out as quick as I can. I don't like shopping ........, unless it's at the feed store or for a new critter

Ha ha! I can't stand shopping either...I find it more stressful than anything. When I lived in AZ it was all everyone did...just shop and I could never understand it!
And I have to say...i'm guilty of reading labels for way too long and I go through all the milk, bread and juice looking at expiration dates too
When i go into Aldi's it's usually quick and Petco is just for the dog food...but Kroger takes hours
