My leukemia's back.

Good morning!

Rachel, stay away from the livestock auction and find a house! You can get lots more animals at an auction once you have a bigger place. (I'm telling you this like you don't already know it

)

Hope everyone is staying healthy and has a good Saturday!

You stay the heck out of the smoke!!!!!! No breathing it in, no messing with it, no NUTHIN', do you hear me???? Smart move on giving the realtor a piece of your mind!! Cliff, indeed....like we're all not living on the edge now!

What she said x 100. Even with them burning outside, and you inside, there's still some smoke. No auction for you today. Get a house.

All the way up to 41* here today. A lot to do outside, but it sure does feel better in here.

X 3 on go get a house @donrae ---- I hope that today is a fruitful day of hunting for you and your family and you find "the one"!

All the way to 41, LG -- that's pretty much a heat wave for you, isn't it?

46 now. Time to drag out the hoses and get some watering done in GH and CF before an other freeze. We had a salad for lunch: greens from GH, with ham, diced pepper and onion, and dried cranberries. Why is it that stuff tastes so much better when it's not typically in season? Totally yummy!

Just on for a quick minute before I go into work briefly, then out to look at houses.

The place I'm liking better has a small orchard--I'm stoked! I could trade orchard for barn, maybe. That's been one of my regrets is we never planted fruit trees here, we thought it was too wet and they'd simply rot. I'm trying not to get too excited, it's hard to ride the ups and downs, I do better when things are level emotionally.

I am enjoying having the cows here, though. they're getting comfortable enough I can touch them in passing, things like that. I'll have to work out some sort of creep feeder system for the little steer calf especially, momma cow is a feed hog. I have feeders set up in two different stalls, but I still don't think he's getting quite enough. And I'd like to grain him a touch, but she really doesn't need it. We'll see what works out.

I'd decided not to incubate any more eggs until spring. My last batch---I dunno, I'm losing chicks. Some pasty butt, some just up and die. Discouraging, so I was going to take a break. But this morning, Honey got up and wired my new thermostat to the cabinet incubator. He's so proud of himself, I can't disappoint the man, now can I? If only some hens will start laying........

We do have some sunshine here today

. He and Sugar Monkey and one of the boy's friends are out smashing a junker camper in the garden. It's been stressing me, we need to get rid of that thing before we sell the place. It's too muddy to drive back there now. I think he's going to dismantle what he can, burn the rest, and then we'll see.....all I know is men with large heavy objects having a good time with mayhem and destruction

. I'm going into my nice clean office job to work for a few hours, it's safer there!

Okay, you got me. I'm kind of jealous. Part of me wants to go pick up a sledge and whale on the camper too!

 

[Blooie]

Um, I think the office is your safer bet.....just the thought of testosterone-laden beings wielding tools of destruction would keep me indoors!!

Howdy folks just hanging in my Deer blind waiting for the sin to go down..... Not looking forward to DST....getting dark early enough as it is .

 

[LittleLakePhil]

If it was up to me I'd be setting the clock ahead another hour so it would stay light later.... Imo

I'll second that motion, Phil -- I don't care how early it gets light, do care how early it gets dark.......more opportunity to be productive with the extra daylight at the end of the day than at the beginning.

I just wish they would stop changing the clocks twice a year. Pick a time and stick with it for crying out loud! It takes me several days to readjust when the time changes.
