Life on the hill

ever thing I am reading says the health insurance bill is going to pass the senate by Christmas eve. There is a lot of nay Sayers out and about this bill and I don't know how to feel about the bill but I am greatly encouraged when I read the republications are vowing to fight on against the bill. If The GOP is against it I suppose I will be for it.
The price of gas is down by 4 cents a gallon , remember when King George was with us and the price was going up everyday ? I guess I am happier with this Democrat leadership than I was a week ago. Speaking of differences I see a small reduction in the prices in the grocery store in the last few months also.
The weather has been nice the last few days and we haven't had the snow storms like they have had on the east coast. The chickens appreciate the nice weather. they gave me 24 eggs today.
The chickens have been cackling after dark and I always go open the door and check to see what is going on in the pen, I can't See anything wrong and was thinking that I don't remember my chickens raising a fuss after they went to roost before this year then I realized that these chickens roost in the pen instead of in the hen house so no doubt that is the difference in the flock.I am or daughter is selling all the extra eggs at work. I charge a dollar a dozen and some are telling Janet that is to cheap but the way I see it a person has to keep the price in reason and not kill the goose that is laying the golden egg. I suspect some of the buyers are buying for themselves and other family member. I don't see how Connie Wallace could use 5 dozen eggs a week Maybe Doctor Wallace is eating brown eggs for breakfast.
My joints, especially my knees has been giving me a lot of pain but today they have been a little better it is strange how the pain will be so bad and then will ease down with out a apparent reason. I have told you about all I know so good night!

A dollar a dozen is cheap.

A lady Cliff works with gave him a dozen eggs, and when he took the carton back, he slipped $2 in it; told her later it was to help buy chicken feed. $1 is too cheap; fresh eggs should cost at least as much as those old paleface eggs in the store, and in my opinion they should cost more.
