maybe because we were kids he figured that we wouldn't understand, now with our rentals we install carpet(at least the ones we own) and yep carpet can be made to fit!

Think there was more than 8" out there.

More like 11. It never looks like that much from INSIDE the house. With the warmer temps the wind was tolerable. Jim I'm not much of a carpenter but I'm ex-machinist trust me everthing will be plumb and square.

Thanks for tip though. It's my BFF that I have to look out for.

The lil mule performed like a trooper, she earned her oats and I earned a hearty Bfast. Then on to dishes

what a morning, i'm off school today, but my husband drives med supplies so he had to go in, (1:30 am) well he tried, 1st he got stuck in the driveway, so had to blow it quick, then got going, I got a call 5 mins later, he didn't make it more than 2 miles away, the township is being stupid with the county so the roads are not being plowed, got stuck at 10 and 76 on the road, called a tow ( the battery died of course) $130 to get him and the car back home by 3:30 am. the tow also got stuck in the driveway with the car still hooked up, which was kinda funny.

DrH, what is this "mule" you refer to?
BigZ , you have to whine to the kids, or whoever you figure will fix your tractor.. LOL

I made ho-made buckwheat pancakes for breakfast, and as long as I was cooking anyway, I made a batch of sloppy Joes..didn't have any green peppers, though.. we will just have to wait until we are good and hungry, then they will taste alright.. LOL

the hatching eggs are up to 9 per day..

we are suddenly getting white eggs, now and again.. I think those are from the Ukokkei.. they are not real big eggs..

whine time,,, I need more breeding pens..

Hey everyone!!!

It's been awhile. I skipped clinicals today because our AMAZING babysitter was unavailable to take DS last night and DH had to go plowing. DH left the airport at 3 something in the morning and didn't get home until 5 something. Roads aren't bad with snow, just covered in a sheet of ICE!! I called into clinicals at 330 in the morning saying between the roads and no babysitter, I wasn't going to make it in. Well, turns out that my boss didn't check her voicemail and they called me at 730, worried that I was stuck in a ditch somewhere!

I was like "Oh no, I left a message saying I wasn't coming out" and they were like "Oh thats fine! We just wanted to make sure you were safe!!" Now, if that was a retail job, how many of you bet the convo woulda been different? As in a "GET INTO WORK NOW" sorta way?

I finally was able to catch up on our energy bill. Great to get that paid off. Money situations are getting easier. Got a little in savings, and DH is expecting his inheritance within 30 days (says the lawyer guy) which will help pay off quite a few bills.

I have been so exhausted lately. Working full time right after clinicals is going to be tough. I got my schedule, and will be working first shift while being trained, pretty much until I leave on Maternity leave! It's fine though, I will continue to have weekends off. Now we just need to get DH a job! I start on March 7th, and i'm just so thankful

In other news, insommnia lead me to looking up some foreclosed homes and I found a log home (I love these homes) thats about 2700 sq. ft. with 40 acres of land!! It has it's own pond, which is DH's dream. It's got some pasture but the majority is wooded. Also what DH wanted. It's a new home, under 5 years old...I think people got homes built before the economy crashed and ended up having to kiss it goodbye. It's priced at just under 300k. Bad news? It's 90 miles north of Sheboygan

So I'd be moving the same distance away from work, in a different direction! I could always transfer out to Oshkosh...It's in Octono Falls.

Oh well, dreaming too big

Jim my lil mule is a 1954 VAC Case that I built a plow for. I use it in the woods too. Don't know what I'd do without it.
