Hey Everyone!

I haven't been on here in forever because I have been super busy. I had my little man on October 7th, exactly 2 weeks early. Time seems to just fly by and I don't even notice it until I check and figure out how long it has been. LOL!

I have decided to start breeding English Angora rabbits to use for fiber. I am looking for an English Angora buck so if anyone knows of anyone that has some near Manitowoc please let me know! I have found a few breeders but they are too far away for me to drive with a newborn and they wont deliver. I am willing to pay extra if the person is willing to deliver the rabbit to me.

Ok so now for the photo bomb!

Congrats Goth!

He's VERY cute!


ok anybody got $3000 I can have? stupid furnace went out in the rental. Now what do I do? Looking at selling the house. I can't take out a loan, the bank said, no! pieces of crap. and now the renters are like "well what are we suppose to do with out heat?" I said I got electric heaters!? what the hell am I supposed to do? I told them that we're raising the rent (to pay for the furnace) and he threw a fit! WTHeck? ur renting a whole fricken house that's costing us more money than what you pay for rent! why does crap go wrong right before christmas? it never fails! oh ya and the best part, they can offer to buy the house but if we say "raise rent" they freak? AAAAAHHHHHH! I consider you all my friends, any one rich? lol
I just wanna slap rich people who spend millions on a wedding and then end it a MONTH later cause they "MADE a MISTAKE"? WTHeck?, the heck with the wedding just give the money to the pooor who are freezing cause the dumb furnace went out and they can't afford to buy a new one.
oh but the renters who are IN the house can apparentally drop $3000. do you think we should let them and pay them back? but he said he would need it ASAP, how the heck can i even do that?

I'm done sorry

later, I'm gonna go pray for some money. night

Evening! Nice to hear from you again Goth! Both of your babies are adorable! YOur daughter has the sweetest smile!
Not very much to comment on...I have a "death book" too jim...it is a scrapbook type thing. Very neat, pics of what we did together and stuff. I always carve a pumpkin with my people at Halloween...it is kind of like doing it with kids! I will have to see if I can scan a couple of pics to share. I guess I can do that since they are gone hey?

It was dark before I got home again tonight...*sigh* I can never seem to get back before the light is gone!
The woman whose horse I have called me tonight. She wants to buy her back for what she has cost me...it is going to be a lot of money...She only wants to pay until last May when I got the papers. I guess that might be fair--not real sure what I should do. I guess I will figure it out and then tell her what she owes me. I dont think she will have it though.

So I guess everybody is getting ready to watch the game hey? (I'm not) LOL--I have to go out and feed the critters...then maybe I will make some popcorn and go upstairs and read...day off tomorrow!!!! I am going to start the coop inside the shed so the birds will have a better shelter for the winter...maybe I will divide the layer coop too if I have enough materials saved up...not sure exactly what I have...

Dogs barking--gotta run! Terri O (go pack)

ETA: RAIM--I feel for ya...our furnace was out and DH finally put a new one in...if you buy the unit and do the work it will only cost you $1200 or so........

Monday Night Football Evening All.... glad you stopped by GothChick, Congrats on your new addition! Nice and cute for sure....how about a name? Stanley, Frank. Gordon?

Sorry about the loss Deb. Bummer for sure. The good Lord sure had a perfect idea making life on earth temporary. That should be enough to get a person going daily, eh! I see the funeral home in c-ville is remodeling. I told suzie now that's a good buisness....everyone dies.

My son stopped with a gallon of fresh sauerkraut that a lady in Bear Creek makes. Sure is goody. Tonight it's venzun cheesburgers on toasted home made buns with fried onions and sauerkraut. A couple of those is prolly equal to 10 eggs!

Go Pack Go....time to teach the vikes rookie qb another lesson

Hope defense shows up tonight.

Later...bigz

Raimnel, why not let the renters buy the furnace and that's their rent for X amount of months?

Goth, he's so adorable! I love the 4th pic, looks like he's up to something...

Raim,

Wish I were rich, I'd give ya the $.

Deb, that's really sad about your client. I bet she was glad to have you with her.

Kee, go to Fleet an get yourself some Corona Lanolin ointment. It's for livestock but works wonders on people too. Gob it real thick on your hands at night and put socks on your hands and sleep that way. In the morning, tada - healed and supple skin. Great pics of the shindig, too!

The ViQueens sure are stinking the place up tonight, huh?

Go Pack!

Hey, I'm an Auntie again!!! My big bro and his wife and daughter welcomed the new addition to their family this morning. A strapping lad of 9 lbs 9 oz and 21 inches long!

Kee I do the same thing Anyable recommended, but I use Bag Balm ointment..... smells minty too!

Raim, any furnace places offering deals right now? When we put our new furnace in, the place was running a 'no payment for 6 months' deal. I figured we would just use the taxes to cover the cost. Is your renter renting month-to-month or do they have yearly lease? That would either hinder or help you if you were looking to raise the rent...... but you probably know all this already.

Ok off to bed. Working on the house tomorrow.

good packer win evening, did anybody else hear that one person cheering after the game ? for those of you who didn't know,, it was TerriO !!!

a friend came over tonight and helped me work on my broken compresser.. actually he did all the work. he gave me a whole set of easy-outs... He is coming back on Thursday with some stainless steel fittings to put the guages back on..

I gave him a tour of my chicken coops. he was really impressed when I bellered at the geese and they went into the coop..

when I worked on a concrete crew , our hands would get dry and cracked. . we used Corn Husker's Lotion.. I would think udder balm would be good also..

Hi all!

Deb... sorry about your client/ friend.... It may be "just a Job" but I'm sure you get a little attached to even the "difficult" ones. I admire those of you who can do such a job!!!

TO... Yep we got a Wal-Mart a few years ago and the 2 years a go a Koles.... Our K-mart died. Ours didn't sell dryers either, I think when a store closes now they bring in unsold stock from other stores to see if they can dump it. Remember too they are part of Sears now so they get inventory from some of them. One woman was telling me (on her way to her car) that she got a $65 pair of earrings for $3

Gee, if you start bartering eggs that may put an end to your eating 10 in one day!.... BTW.... How's your heart today?

Barter, barter, barter!

I connected everything in the dream to something except the health department part...maybe that is to come?

Maybe you should take a good health look at your flock... your subconscious may have picked something up you didn't notice.

GC... So glad you made it back!!! Good too see the fruits of your labor!

raim.... I so know how it goes with a rental! Last year I fixed the furnace, a few months ago I had to have kitchen plumbing done. Now he needs 2 storm doors and said there is an issue in the bathroom!

I'm also short on the taxes

If it wasn't that it gives me a bit of security knowing it's paid for and we could always move into it if we lost everything else....

Hope you find a way. You could try a Habitat for Humanity ReStore if there is one near you.

bigZ.... I was going to make fresh sauerkraut too but the chickens took care of that idea!

Hope you enjoy it!!!!

I got the coop clean!

It was funny, when I went to "hook up" the roost (it's on hinges) there were a few chickens on it, I think it freaked them out when I hooked it up! LOL Then a few decided the wanted on but it was too high a jump! Funny watching them.!

Then, when I gave the girls there nightly Pep Talk/ Threat .... Pretty Boy started to crow! I turned to look at him and then heard something hit the straw! Guess I scared an egg out one of them!!!!

The look on her face was precious!

I so wish I had the camera then!!!

OK.... Night All!​
