I'm just doing some blog-surfing and I thought I'd stop in and see what your journal is all about.
It's very informative and interesting.
Seems farm living is a good life for us. However, I seem to find plenty for my wonderful hubby to help me do...and so his "Honey Do" list seems to always be growing...A long weekend is just enough to remind us of all the little things we want to accomplish around the farm...and well...I'm just no good at doing on my own...so I bat my eyes, and smile, and ...hand him my list...I do at least try to hang out and give him a hand...I can be a good gopher...
Hummm...let's see we need to repair and modify all our chicken pens?....We've got to repair some broken wire, cross fence...and build a new roost and some more nests....there's some roofing that needs to be repaired due to summer storms...
And then we've got to clear out the garden to plant the fall veggies... (Really, I am terrified of the morning glories that seem to grow a yard a day...I can't go into the garden alone...)
And of course there's that big tree that needs to be cut into firewood...
and there are some roosters that need to make it into a chicken and dumpling pot...
and then the momma guinea that's been sitting in the garden...well she's hatched and we've got to catch the little keets...or they'll never make it past a week...
and my little turkeys are going to need a bigger place soon...
and we need to give a couple of goats some shots...
and we just went to the feed store...and of course...someone had to unload all those heavy sacks...
and I need help cranking the week whacker... and could you help me adjust the mower...
The list just goes on and on... I do appreciate Richie so... Seems I always need help and always am coming up with more ideas for us to do...
And then, someone has to play with crazy Hammie the Steer... Cause I'm not going back in there with him alone...( I had to sneak pots past him today so I could plant my fall broccoli...
cause he just wants to play..
