Chicken eggs. There are 8 ducklings at the farm right now, another duck sitting on eggs, and a 3rd that's getting a clutch going.
It finally stopped raining and got warm! In fact, when I got home, I put on a pair of shorts! I had planned on doing some work outside, but it was too hot! It's supposed to be cooler tomorrow, so I'd do some work outside tomorrow. Instead, I concentrated on the house.
I got the bathroom clean. I got some dishes done, I changed the sheets on the bed, and I got of the living room cleaned. I would have had more done, but got couple of phone calls that took longer than I was expecting. Plus, since I had to go to TSC, I got home later than I'd planned. But, my chickens appreciate that I went since I was out of chicken food! And, I also decided that I was going to buy some stuff that I wanted, and didn't care what hubby said. They had a long sleeved, button down shirt that I really liked, so I bought it. They also had some plastic mesh that I want to put over top of my chickens. What I have is just not sturdy enough, and is ripping. Plus, the holes are really small, which means, depending on what the snow is like, it doesn't fall thru, but instead sticks.
I made lasagna for dinner and got upset w/hubby. I bought mozzarella cheese specifically for making the lasagna and hubby opened it up and ate half of it.
ullinghair: I HATE it when he does that, and this isn't the first time. I've told him NOT to use something that I buy, but he STILL does it.
I've also come to the conclusion that I cannot wait for him to do the stuff that he keeps promising to do. Instead, I'm going to tell him that if he doesn't do it, I am-even if I don't know how. The windows in my shed are horrible-they leak if it rains heavily, unless I caulk them in! If I had realized what they were like when I got them, I never would have. Hubby's been saying for years that he's going to replace them. Last year, he bought the windows, but they're still not in. I had to mop up water constantly while I was there yesterday, and of course, it was soaked there when I got to the farm. B4 the next heavy rainfall, they're getting replaced.
My RB feeder is just too big for my horses. It was one thing when I was doing pony rides, and was caring for more animals. I used the tractor to move it, and stuck a whole RB in it. But since I now have just my 3, I don't need something this size. I want to make one 2/3 the size, then sell this one. This one has a 9 ft diameter, so it's very difficult for me to move it. And, so the hay doesn't get pushed to the middle where it would be hard to reach, I have a big wooden spool in the center. In order to move it, I have to put my mounting block inside of it, then pick up the bottom, and walk up the mounting block, then step on the spool. By doing this, I'm able to get it up on it's side, then roll both the spool and the RB feeder to a new spot. I drew up the plans over a year ago, hubby is supposed to teach me how to weld, and that's supposed to be one of the first things.
I'm tired of not having my motorcycle. I'm tired of not having my small horse trailer. I'm tired of having a house that's not done. So, I'm going to just go ahead and start doing stuff, whether I know how to or not. I figure I can always learn.
The only thing both of mine need desparately is exercise!
