This question came up on one of my groups the other day - I said, well of course pooping in a bucket is weird, but perhaps what is weirder is that on my expenses spread sheet I under utilities i list the normal water and propane, and then the unusual, wood shavings (to cover the poop in the bucket with).<br /><br />Since I don't eat turkey - my turkey baster is free to do all kind of awful and gross things label free.Duwan @ Make Like An Apemanhttp://www.makelikeanapeman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-55633181615528841352018-06-18T11:02:17.729-07:002018-06-18T11:02:17.729-07:00No need to suck any water out of a bilge pump here...No need to suck any water out of a bilge pump here, so I'm all good. :)Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-22925033802963180132018-06-18T07:49:01.345-07:002018-06-18T07:49:01.345-07:00I will never underestimate the power of a Turkey B...I will never underestimate the power of a Turkey Baster again! :D Hmmm, weirdness in my life right now consists of new pathways opening up that are terrifying but good and me doing whatever it takes to avoid them.
