That truck sounds awesome! Any joy/progress with the Jeep yet?

 

[NH Homesteader]

Nope, but he'd better have news today, it's been a whole week!

That's more than enough time

Baby and I slept from 11-6 last night. Yay! I so needed that! Hope this is her new normal. She actually just dozed back off and DD1 isn't up yet so it's quiet. Amazing. Lol

I have serious cabin fever, so resdy for spring. Fortunately it's supposed to be warm (in the 40's, that's warm for here Texas folks!) all week So we'll be boiling sap all week.

Chickens are starting to lay. Nothing from the turkeys yet though. Hopefully soon, we need them to hatch in April to be ready for the freezer this fall!

Yay for sleep! I definitely know how doing without can drag you down and how getting enough is like an energy transplant!

My chickens are starting back up pretty well, and the quail too!

Sleep is a wonderful thing especially when you have a newborn! I hear you on cabin fever. I am getting bored with this winter story now, much as I enjoyed the snow! And we're in for another shipload this week I hear

How are the babies doing? Human and 4-legged? Any resolution on the Jeep?

Everyone's good! Sleeping 7-8 hours at night now, Woo-hoo!

Dude offered to help sell the Jeep (as parts probably), and make up the difference in free labor. He's actually good at body work and DH's new truck needs some of that. I'm not happy with the deal but it could be worse.

I ordered cheese cultures yesterday and I am dying to get back to milking!

Bless them children's hearts for sleeping! Still sucks about the Jeep - but whaddya gonna do? Getting something out of it for parts is better than nothing I guess. Maybe he can get that new truck fixed up and purtified, lol! Woo hoo on milking! Even more on cheesemaking!
