    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Another one of those days! Got a lot done though. I was outside from 7a to 6p...give or take a few minutes for hydration and nourishment. Important stuff, lol. Still have a few things to do tomorrow. Also going to get all the laundry done, change the bedsheets and take a last minute shower...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Busy day trying to get ready for this cold crap that's coming. I was quite ok having a mild winter - didn't need this mess at all! Filled up all the empty gas cans this morning I now have over 50 gallons of gasoline in case I need to feed the generator. Hope I don't need a drop of it...

    What's for dinner?

    Had some low carb tortillas so made quesadillas. Found some pork shoulder in the freezer so I thawed it out and shredded it. Sauteed some onions and piled all of that and lots of cheese on a tortilla. Topped it with another tortilla and that was DH's dinner. Mine was the same but only 1...

    Could You Thrive Through a Long Winter Without Running to the Store?

    LOL - sometimes it funny how preconditioned we are. I was thinking (like the rest of the folks in this mess) that I should go to the store. Bread and milk and brownie mix, right? So, looked around. I've got bread. I've got crackers. I've got corn bread mix. Need to get milk right? Why...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    So not fair! I live where I live so I don't have to deal with this cold weather crap! I'll be filling up all the gas cans to feed the generator if needed. I have a bunch of buckets to haul water to the critters. I have a feeling I'm going to regret having so many birds in so many different...

    Brrrr! We're gonna get some of that mess. I'm not happy about it. I've got a whole bunch of stuff to do and so little time. Story of my life. Thank goodness for coffee!

    Karma is trying her best to help. I don't think getting into the hole I'm digging is gonna help me one little bit. But she's cute enough to get away with it!

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    They definitely want more. They've had building a new coop/pen on their list but haven't gotten around to it yet. Supposed to be an upcoming weekend chore. They're going to have to make it secure to keep "my" chickens at their house or they will definitely come back home. Nope on the buy me...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Still doing preps for the trip, trying to keep up with regular chores along with taking care of problems as they pop up. Going to have to redo the water line - again. I'll put spacers in before I fill the hole with dirt next time. Supposed to have some "weather" coming this weekend so that...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Well Boo! Texans lost today. I hate to say it - but they deserved to. Not sure what happened to them. The weather was horrible, we had injuries in some major players and our quarterback seems to have lost his mojo. Darn shame - but there's always next year! Pulled some turnips for dinner...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    I hope so! This team has so much talent and heart that they deserve good things! We love our Texans for sure. It got cold overnight. I doubted my weather stations temp reading when I woke up - but there's plenty of ice out there to make me think it wasn't so far off. Full on sun this...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    After going outside I'm not so sure my weather station was far off in it's estimation of temperature. There was ice everywhere! Don't think that ice would have had time to form if we barely hit freezing right before sunrise. I can doubt it's accuracy - but I can't doubt the ice buildup!

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Take a day off! We got cold overnight but my weather app and my home weather station are arguing about it. One says 33 - the other says 24. I'm thinking that my home weather app is a weather wuss like me and thinks it's colder than it is!
