As of yesterday, I own Dad's car....thank God!
So I've been trying very hard not to fall too far behind on any chores and thank God DS lends a hand here and there. I really didn't get much help from DD, because of her classes, this summer, but now she is a highschool teacher and makes more money than me, so its all good.
Looking forward to a little cool weather, so I have courage to tackle more things, but I have been forceing myself to do some sweating. I put myself doing some of the hard things, just to accomplish a few of the tasks I've set for myself. I'm not fit to be seen, after I've done them, but hey.....at least I'm getting somewhere.
I've got some nasty yuck on some of my orange trees and I'm going to buy neem oil to treat them. I think I'll still be within the range of organic gardening with neem. If it works out, might get a neem tree, if it is able to grow is the sticky heat. IDK, but gotta treat. I wouldn't want the coons to get sick eating my infected fruit, now would I? Have been reading lots of recipes for making marmalade and looking forward to giving them a try.
So also been working on a little side line sales. Overheard 2 of my aids talking about a diet product a few weeks ago and I asked them to tell me more about it and by all they were telling me.....all natural, gives energy, decreases appetie, etc.....I said, "Well, that sounds like a product, I used to take years ago." and I was wondering if it was still available, because I used to be a distributer and was pretty sure I would get it for a better price than the stuff the girls were talking about....so I"m back with Extreme Power Plus, which might have something to do with how i"m doing all that sweating. Its good for me to be able to accomplish all those chores, but really, I'm trying to tell everyone I come into contact with about it, so they can refer me to their friends, etc....Was also trying to talk a few businesses into trying to sell the stuff, like they used to, because it works on a referral thingy. Its slow, but I have sold a few bottles. I'm hoping I can sell at least a case a month. I think I'll paint a sign for my yard tomorrow, to go under my FRESH YARD EGGS sign to see if I can get a little business like that. I wanted someone to help me start a website, but my DD 25 thinks it will be a hard thing to manage. IDK. But it was through someone's website that I was able to get back in, so seems like it would be worth a try. I mean....I'm not really a sales person, so if the website can do the selling, so much the better.
So its about time I have a slaughter day because I have about a dozen extra males to put in freezer camp. Not looking forward to it, but will very much like to have it behind me. So does anyone else find that muscovies are super hard to pluck?
I treated myself to a battery operated weedeater, which I bought off of amazon, discontinued, with an extra battery, because the goats and chickens can't do it all, plus, I don't need a man to start the weedeater if its battery operated. Amen.
