Thanks yall! The weekend wasn't bad, the weather was ok during the day, warmer than usual, and we did have rain overnight on Saturday, which made things pretty muddy. Saturday morning we got a dump run in, and then headed to the barn to put the hay away that was delivered. We cleaned out the...

WHEW. Finally some things are coming together. Yesterday did not go as planned, it snowed over night, just a dusting, but it was heavier down at the farms I take care of. I was supposed to have an appointment with the farrier in the morning and I just didn't feel like trimming in the cold and...

Heh, they could, and I think they would, I have no idea what Storm would think about a pig, though, but I guess he'd get over it eventually! It would be free board, but no pay, though, so there's that. If this other opportunity falls through I will be checking in with them for sure! Got home...

Thanks, FEM! I did get cough syrup... that was almost a mistake. I bought the night time kind, and took a dose Thursday night when I got ready for bed. Slept like a rock until about midnight when I woke up coughing again. I counted the hours until I had to get up, and I thought ehh it's close...

Thanks, FEM. I'm almost on the mend, I'm in the icky phase where I'm actually coughing more because now it's breaking up. I'm doing neti pots twice a day, and all sort of other things. I do need to get some cough syrup in order to survive the night tonight, though. I did stay home from the...

Thanks, FEM!! Day 2 of being sick for real (not just that ick feeling that leaves you wondering if it's going to get better or worse...). I slept horribly last night. I was constantly too hot and then too cold. I think I'll be taking a nap at some point today. I'm supposed to be putting in 4...

And now I've come down with the cold that everybody has been passing around! :hitI decided to take it easy (easier) and stay at home today and work from home. I technically haven't put in quite as many hours as I should have but I've gotten work done and I'll make it up later. My head is...

He was an absolute TROOPER yall!! So I ended up late getting back from our trip down to the other office in VA, but thankfully the dentist isn't that far from my boss's house. I RACED down to meet him, and they had already started numbing him. They kicked me out of the room before they started...

@flowerbug I do enjoy baking, but I always wait longer than I would like to and then end up rushing to really get stuff done. So it goes. Yesterday I went with the boss to the other location in VA, and that was a good trip. Traffic wasn't nearly as bad as I feared, and we made decent time coming...

Oh dang, that sounds so yummy, FEM!!! I got a lot done yesterday, which was a good thing! I managed to get the Christmas cards finished and mailed, ran to the grocery store, washed the sheets, remade the bed, stopped while I was out for one more present for Eddie, and then wrapped the presents...

I like to go driving around looking at lights, too, FEM. The old neighborhood I used to live in wasn't very nice, it was a lower end neighborhood, but it was known for lots of lights. Christmas and Halloween were the best times of year there. LOL I hear ya on big trips to town. We spent almost...

LOL FEM that's too funny!! I love decorating, so I don't mind doing it for us. We do live on a street that gets some traffic, so I enjoy being able to put lights out. The girls that grew up in the house loved the lights last year, since they still live on the street, they see everything we do. I...

LOL, yes, I will take pics when/if I do it!!! I hope I can make it happen, but we'll see how it goes. I have to get the BF's buy in on it because it's going to require some heavy work to make it happen. Yesterday I got the fake tree up in the office, and it's cute. It took the BF forever to...

That seems to be the way of it, FEM, I'm just hoping that isn't the case for a whole lot longer! I'm ready to be able to do more while working less!! The BF and I didn't get much done last night, but I did make a grocery stop, so we at least ate an ok dinner at home. And then we did a little...

We finally managed to get more done on the driveway this weekend!! I'm SO happy to have this moving along again. Of course, now we have crazy rain again, but at least we made some big steps forward. We got the first row of the fabric laid out, and then got the retaining wall built in. After that...

I'm not really sure either, sometimes. Well, things didn't quite go as we planned... the BF came down with a cold last week, so he was not feeling very well at all for his birthday. We still did the floats and went out to dinner (he couldn't taste it though... which SUCKS because it was...

Yall are awesome! My grandfather can do needlepoint, though he usually sticks to the repetitive patterns in the background, and my grandmother would do the designs in the middle. My mom also worked as a paramedic, and there was a guy that used to cross stitch, it was his form of moving...

YES!!!! The new ones are working beautifully! I'm working through the learning curve of figuring out how to manage the loads and how much can be put in for the load to run smoothly. I did find out that the washer handled our thick queen mattress pad with no trouble, but the dryer wasn't happy...

YES, @Britesea that's the truth! We're already half way on to the next thing and the first thing doesn't get completely wrapped up. The washer and dryer went in yesterday! :weeeI can have clean clothes again! The BF took apart the dryer yesterday for us to scrap it, and discovered a massive...

Yes, it has been a happy ending! She's doing well, and is cute as a button. I can't wait to see what she looks like when she gets big. She's got these super adorable tufts of fur on her ears, I hope she keeps them, but it makes me wonder if she's a long haired breed. It's a waiting game now...
