Mornin Debbi! Yeah...its startin to warm up a bit now...feels nice...I'm enjoyin a mornin cup of coffee before I head back out.

Sounds like the start of a fun project over there. I am not sure what I'm gonna end up doing today. Thinking I'm gonna clean up some building materials from various projects and see if I can get my neighbor to bring his bobcat up and start leveling off the ground for me so I can start building. We'll see how it goes...I figure if the weather is going to keep behaving like this its time to get things done!

Lol... I'm telling ya I hate it when the day is so nice and its wasted on mishaps lol so today I'm going to do what I wanted to do yesterday. Already got my stalls scraped out. And It caught on fire haha!

haha It threw me for a loop there...I thought you were saying your stalls caught on fire haha

LOL that's what I thought she meant as well. SOrry you had such a bad day. I think I would have crawled back in bed and stayed there but that's hard to do with kids lol.

Roberta congrats on your pretty boy.

It is such a beautiful fall day here I can't stand to stay inside. I'm supposed to be studying for a test but I keep finding reasons to go back outside today.. First I gave the girls thier watermelons and an extra piece for WHistle for being such a good protective roo. Then, that wasn't good enough for them, they insisted on trying to get my Pop Tarts I was sitting on the tail gate eating. They sure can fly when they want Pop Tarts.

Oh my goodness this day couldnt get any crazier or more painful... vicki I think you gave me your "bad luck bug" today! And I hope it won't continue any longer.

First things first started off the day with loose horses 1 in my yard and the other out of sight (she's a spooker) so I got my stud colt in (he's 2) and got the girls up to go look for my mare which I could see over the hill and the only entrance into this feild that I knew of was on the other side of the 80acre crp crop. So drove over there caught her and walked her back while driving the truck. ( she doesn't mind vehicles but hated the wind/high pressure) got home.... then while walking her out to the barn a freakin bird with amazing aim crapped on me and just so happened that it was early enough I was in my pj shorts and muck boots and it landed on my thigh and continued down my leg into my boot.

Okay ill stop here, This wasn't concerning to me... Nor did I pick up on the hint that this was the beginning of a very dangerous day... y? Because I naturally have bad luck and I'm okay with that cause I'm sure God gets a kick

out of it. BUT today NO it got personal

Then after that to keep this a "short story" I experienced
- head butted by my milking goat
- 2 of my roos fighting and bloodied (never seen my roos do this) got acouple seriously blows trying to break it up
- a flat tire ( I pinched my finger in the jack)
- my hand got shut in th car door (thanks to my daughter)
Then I decided to quite fighting with the day and went home
-Only to find my dog had tore the crap out of my diaper genie bag full of diapers (poopy) then aparently decided to roll in it. (Luckily I have wood floors)

Forgot to mention the hydrolics on my tractor... somethings up there!

So I called a friend to see if she could take the girls so I could have an over due break. She said yes shed take them to the park.

-While getting them ready my 8mos old flung her head back and hit my lip/nose. Fat lip and numb nose.

After they left I decided to do some baking (that's just what I do to escape life)
Can anyone guess what happened next?
Its the last and final thing.

OMG!! Sounds like my younger days! Murphy's Law runs rampant here, and always has. Yes, the Lord doth have a great sense of humor too!

Opps sorry no my stalls didn't catch on fire my stove did. And Yes He must have one and he must love to laugh
. Hey kim How do you cut and freeze your pumkins?
