Right on the kitchen counter till they start to hatch….
It usually takes 21 days for a chicken egg to fully incubate. A day is the full 24 hours after you put the egg in the incubator I tend to see external pipping (when the chick starts to break the egg) on day 19, but it can take up to 28 days in some cases.
It’s important to heat up the incubator for 24 hours before you put eggs in to ensure the temperature is correct and stays steady.
Choosing eggs to incubate. Make sure they are fresh and fertile. You have to have a rooster to fertilize the eggs. If you don’t have a rooster you might be able to finds some through your local newspaper or Farm Supply center.
Maintain a temperature between 100°-102° with a still air incubator and 99-99.5 with a forced air incubator. Keep your humidity between 40-50% days 1-18, then increase to 50%-60% on days 18-21. Turn your eggs at least 3 times a day from days 1-18, then don’t turn them at all on days 18-21.
Enjoy and have fun with different projects that enhance your life.
Usually you replace your dentures every 3 to 5 years. If you don’t donate them at your dentist office they are probably laying around collecting dust at your house. Put them to good use.
The Japan Denture Recycling Association, is a nonprofit organization since December 2006. JDRA recycles the metal from used dentures and donates the money to UNICEF to support underprivileged children in the world.
All you have to do is sanitize the dentures. You can do so by boiling some water and placing the dentures in a glass bowl and pour water over the dentures. Let the dentures soak until water is cool. Remove dentures, dry off, wrap in plastic wrap and place in envelope or small box and mail them off.

There are several worthy causes to donate to for dental repair. Thank you for taking the time to read. Please share the story with others so we can spread the word.
Remain vigilant about safety in and around the home this winter. Here are three winter hazards to keep in mind.
First, Carbon Monoxide – The Invisible Killer
Use portable generators outside your home and place them at least 20 feet away from the residence with exhaust pointed away from spaces where it can gather and present a hazard. Never use a generator inside a home, basement, shed or garage. The exhaust from portable generators contains poisonous carbon monoxide (CO), which can kill in minutes.
Most portable generator-related deaths from CO poisoning occur during the cold months.
Never leave a car running in a garage, even with the garage door open.
Install CO alarms in your home on every level and outside all sleeping areas. Test CO alarms monthly.
Your space heater needs space. Keep flammable objects, such as curtains, sofas, beds, clothes and papers at least 3 feet away from your space heater at all times.
Make sure your space heater is placed on a stable, level, flat surface in an area where it can’t be knocked over.
Turn off space heaters when you are sleeping, or when you leave the room.
Install smoke alarms on every floor of your home, outside all sleeping areas, and inside each bedroom. Test smoke alarms once a month to make sure they are working.
Third, Snow Blower Hazards – Clear Snow Safely
Most snow blower injuries happen when consumers try to clear snow from the discharge chute with their hands.
NEVER leave a gas-powered snow blower running in an enclosed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, which can kill in minutes.
Don’t add gasoline to a running or hot engine, to avoid a fire; and always keep the gasoline in a portable gasoline container with a child-resistant closure to prevent child poisonings.
One more very important thing… Clear the snow away from your gas meter and away from any pipes around that area.
HEART DIEASE CLAIMS THE LIFE OF A WOMAN EVERY MINUTE.
Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back.
Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.
As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain.
You may think you have indigestion, heartburn or discomfort in your chest. The doctor told me that it was just heart burn and prescribed antacids. I had 6 heart attacks in 4 days. I was taking apple cider vinegar thinking it was heartburn. I think it saved my life. I have a new doctor now!!!
Let’s Win This Together Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women. Support the innovative research, education and prevention services that protect the women we love.
IT’S THE HOLIDAY SEASON AND HERE COMES ALL THE STRESS!!!

I highly doubt you are feeling all warm and dreamy about Christmas at this point. D-Day is tomorrow and you are behind on getting all the goodies under the tree. Baking cookies and treats for your spectacular day to celebrate with family and friends.
It’s time to take a minute to check on yourself… Litterly sit yourself down and take a 5 minute break. If you are feeling tired or even exhausted to the point where you don’t feel well.
Don’t wait to get help if you experience any of these heart attack warning signs. Some heart attacks are sudden and intense. But most start slowly, with mild pain or discomfort. Pay attention to your body and call 911 if you experience:
DONT HESITATE CALL 911

Preventive Steps You Can Take NOW
Try to avoid close contact with sick people.
While sick, limit contact with others as much as possible to keep from infecting them.
If you are sick with flu-like illness, CDC recommends that you stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. (Your fever should be gone for 24 hours without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.)
Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. After using a tissue, throw it in the trash and wash your hands.
Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way.
Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs like flu.
Treatments
Most of the time flu goes away without treatment. Taking medication can help relieve symptoms. Bed rest will help in faster recovery. Medication

MOST IMPORTANTLY: KEEP YOUR FACE, HANDS and EYES COVERED.
Always wash your hands and change clothes as soon as you get home.
Try and keep the contamination to one area.
If you are one of the few that come home to one of the burnt out neighborhoods make sure you exercise caution while out in the elements.
That means anytime you are outside make sure you follow these simple emergency instructions to cleansing your body.
You do not want to inhale any of the elements that is on fire or has been burnt out.
Respiratory infections and many other illness can be blamed on large burn out fires as these.
Think about how many toxic products that are in our homes. Make sure if moving one of these items you are prepared with emergency protection gear.
Refrigerator, microwaves, cars, carpet, wood flooring that has been treated and those are just a few things that every home may have.
Your home and residing in the neighborhood: Set up an area that you can seal off. If you have a separate hall way that you can close off with plastic or a separate entry, perhaps through the side garage door(not a big one)with door to house. Handy to change contaminated clothes.
Even though your area may not have flames crawling up your street or that you can actually see, remember embers and ash can float through the air. It will glide until it gets caught on a branch or something to cling onto.
Make sure you bath each night before you go to bed.
Open your pores with warm water and use a good scrubby or washcloth with loads of soap. Soap up really good. Use cold water after to wash the soap off and close your pores.
Keep all of your smoke clothes in a plastic bag in your sealed area until you wash them. You don’t want to spread the smell or contaminate any other area.
If you are in close vicinity of the devastated areas: Do Not run any fans or air conditioning that has a connetion to outdoors. Close all doors, windows and vents. Close blinds and curtains to keep sun out and temperatures down in the house.
Getting ready to serve up some flavor fun packed ADULT treats for your party. Something fun and delicious with a twist. Your party will be a hit this holiday with some treats and drinks.
You would think that in 2017 we would have figured out a way to ensure our senior citizens safe long-term care.
Many of us find that as our parents age, they’re more likely to need assistance to carry out everyday activities. If that is your role in your parents life, you will have to be diligent and make sure their needs are being met.
I know the first thought is to move them in with you. But you must really think carefully about this choice.
How do we keep them safe and living in their own homes. Or when and how do you trust a facility to give care to your family member?
Just remember low cost care homes usually have several patients and very few staff. Possibly there may be the 1 or 2 staff members on duty for each shift .
The caretaker for your family member must stay alert to their health and needs.
Checking with them daily. Either by being present or by phone.
Check physically at least once a week. Just remember it’s the ones left alone that will be at a disadvantage or taken advantage of. Without frequent communication and things go awry, you will not be aware it happened. You will never know something happened until the one you are caring for speaks up and tells you so.
I know our lives have become very busy between work and children. But they need you now more than ever.
Things to check on when you visit:
Loosing Weight
Gaining Weight
Proper Bowel Movements
Keeping Hydrated, especially during the hot months
Food supply
They have personal needs items. Toothpaste, deodorant and such
Making sure Bills are paid. Electric, gas, phone and rent or mortgage.
That they are able to lock doors and windows by themselves

You can eat more and still lose weight. It’s that easy!

Why not eat more for weight loss and weight maintenance, instead of less? If your schedule does not allow you to exercise, it’s even more important to change your intake values. If your body does not recognize the food as a value, it turns it into FAT… Read through all the articles and see if it makes sense to you. Start to change the inside of you. Read the labels.

Wow who knew that very few people have green eyes. I thought it would have been much higher. Here are some fun facts about green eyes.
Green eyes are the most rare eye color in the world. Only about 2 percent of people in the world have naturally green eyes.
Green eyes are a genetic mutation that results in low levels of melanin, though more melanin than in blue eyes.
Green eyes don’t actually have any color. While green eyes appear to observer as green, the irises themselves have no actual pigment.
86 percent is the highest concentration of people with green eyes and they are found in Ireland, Scotland, and northern Europe.
Sixteen separate genes have been identified as contributing to eye color. So, no matter what eye color your parents have, yours could end up being just about any color. Green eyes naturally occur in all races of people.
There is a village in China called Liqian, in which two-thirds of all inhabitants today have green eyes and blonde hair.
Green eyes and blonde hair are a rare combination.
Every baby is born with either brown or blue eyes. It can take between six months and three years for children to develop green eyes.
Because green eyes have less melanin than brown eyes, people with green eyes are more likely to be extra sensitive to UV rays. The more melanin, the better protection from the sun.
Doughnut or Donut either way you spell it, you get delicious. I can remember when a donut was .25 cents for fancy ones and .10 cents for glazed or sugar. How about you. Today I pay $1.69 per donut for glazed. Inflation has struck my round little treat.
Doughnut or Donut either way you spell it, you get delicious.
Now that everyone is blindly making treats for their pets. Sadly we must check human ingredients to make sure there are not any things that will harm them.
We are not checking the ingredients that companies are using.
Please educate yourself so your dog stays alive!!!
Please, it’s just not chocolate that can harm and possible cause death. There is a long list of ingredients you need to be aware of. Some you would never think would. I was shocked myself the first time I read it.

As we all know by now Mauna Loa volcano on the island of Hawaii has erupted.
A woman had reported 2 weeks prior to the eruption of Mauna Loa volcano she had been having earaches. She said she hadn’t had an earache in years. She reported not having had one since the day of the eruption.
Atmospheric pressure waves are a notable phenomenon associated with explosive volcanic eruptions.
Dr. Pradip Jamnadas talks about bread and the over use of non essential ingredients.
Dr. Pradip Jamnadas
Basic bread should have 5 ingredients. Flour, sugar, salt, water and yeast. Very little sugar equals 1 tablespoon maximum for 2 lbs of bread dough. Add all the butter and animal fat you want.
It’s what you buy that is adding the weight gain. Not what you are eating.
Have you forgotten to read labels. I know I sure did. Something we should be not be relaxed on. Now more than ever you need to read the ingredients list and ask yourself if all those extra ingredients really necessary. Seriously, some ingredients you can’t even pronounce. Why do you want that in your food?
So this is just what you need to listen to. Change your eating habits and see the difference. Feel the change in energy.
