hey ya'll
hope everyone is doing good!
all fine here but super duper hectic!
tis the "farm season" and it won't slow until about January now...UGH--but again, I like it..HA HA---but I noticed each year this is truly getting harder and harder. No joke there!
Going camping on Thursday so doubling up the workload each day to get it all controlled and one before I leave.
Tony's parents are doing animals...so that is taken care of and definitely needed when we leave.
Going to Cherokee to trout fish and swim!!! Relax time. I relax well until about 1 hr. from home on the return trip and then go into spaz mode knowing, just knowing, the tons of work waiting..UGH
LOL
Anyway.....waiting to get about 80 acres of hay down. Rainy, misty, t-storm type days and not taking the chance yet until dry weather! So time to go camping now--before hay time kicks in.
Once hay time starts, you do not leave or do anything else but bale that hay! LOL
Animals all fine. I love the new chickens cause their pullet eggs are huge!! I had very few that I couldn't put into the egg cartons and distribute and sell....so that is great. Money makers those little suckers.
New addition is a blessing big time. So much room....and my living room is nice and perfect and Nicole is in her tv room....Yippee....so now just cleaning and moving stuff and getting everything in order. My house is getting more and more bare with just a few key sentimental items for show etc....I like that....uncluttered. Now to work on the old clothes and such and get those closets in shape.
Fall work will be all bedroom carpets replaced, rooms painted, and new furniture in all bedrooms. Then landscape stuff I need to do, like making a cute courtyard with stones, etc. off the back porch and then I have to paint the back deck to match the new part of the addition back there....so not bad...but all in winter more or less. Can't handle anything else but the farm right now.
Sales great. Over $1200 on Saturday and early in the season means more money to come as the season hits its high!! I already banked alot of money so far....I vowed to bank about $7,500 this farm season just from the farm alone! So far getting there good.
Tony is making a killing in stock! We made last week another $20,000.....he has made about $110,000 in such a short time! He is a financial wizard this week...HA HA HA.....he is on cloud nine his stocks are working well right now!!!
So all is fine. Haven't worked on the pool since the weather is bad and what progress I made is slipping...LOL...will be green again and will have more work to do on it come nicer weather...oh well, always something.
what else....?? nothing much. just having the best time I can considering I am working from 6 am to 11 pm at least each day. It is truly hard.
Oh---now I know why I always loved my dryer. clothes got done FAST.....outside they have to have time to dry!!! then by the time I have to bring them in and fold, my butt is tired......so I am alternating with the dryer. On super busy days I just use the dryer and dry a load fast and get it done!! On super, duper hot days they will go outside to dry fast and get done. So compromise on that one for me.
power bill only $81 this month. I am thrilled......still doing quite well on keeping it down.
Well Tony back from work at 6:30 and have to start dinner. Pork roast, mac n cheese for them, big salad for me....easy dinner. Might, might make some biscuits for Tony since he loves them with honey.
He had to change his dr. appt. since we didn't realize that we planned our camping trip over his scheduled appt....he does well some days, and if works hard, truly has chest pains and arm pain, etc....hmmm....not enough to be super bad, but not good either. I honestly just don't know.....will see what the Dr. says on his appt. when we get back from camping.
nothing new, nothing bad, everything just working along and doing its thing.....
see ya'll sometime next week!!
