    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Well Boo! Texans lost today. I hate to say it - but they deserved to. Not sure what happened to them. The weather was horrible, we had injuries in some major players and our quarterback seems to have lost his mojo. Darn shame - but there's always next year! Pulled some turnips for dinner...

    I hope so! This team has so much talent and heart that they deserve good things! We love our Texans for sure. It got cold overnight. I doubted my weather stations temp reading when I woke up - but there's plenty of ice out there to make me think it wasn't so far off. Full on sun this...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    After going outside I'm not so sure my weather station was far off in it's estimation of temperature. There was ice everywhere! Don't think that ice would have had time to form if we barely hit freezing right before sunrise. I can doubt it's accuracy - but I can't doubt the ice buildup!

    Take a day off! We got cold overnight but my weather app and my home weather station are arguing about it. One says 33 - the other says 24. I'm thinking that my home weather app is a weather wuss like me and thinks it's colder than it is!

    Been up for awhile and had a nice shower. Hot cuppa coffee happening right now. Have some cold weather coming tonight. I need to see about a few preps. Argh...

    Could You Thrive Through a Long Winter Without Running to the Store?

    Me too! I'm with @Mini Horses on seriously disliking winter weather. We stay well stocked with food and fuel. If bad weather is on the way I do pick up extra livestock feed "justincase." Already have plenty of hay. Have a pond, a well, and always have some water stored in totes and/or...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Went to town Wednesday but neglected to stop for the inspection. I'm such a slacker! Spent a little time showing the babies the creep feed area. I guess most of them aren't hungry enough yet, but a couple of the older ones appreciated it. The mama's were quite put out about not being able to...

    the little wild kingdom

    Sounds tedious! But sometimes tedious chores are also calming chores. I have nothing against that! Boo for snow though... I'm glad, for the most part, I can enjoy it through other folks pictures, lol. That's enough for me.

    Woo Hoo! Hope you've got more brand new ones this morning! I'm up and moving. That's always a good thing, I guess. Didn't accomplish enough yesterday after my shopping trip and the requisite putting away of purchased items. Back to farm life today. Need another cuppa before venturing out.

    I've been putting off a trip to town since Monday. Gotta put my big girl panties on and go today. Need critter feed. Can't deny them a good meal just because I hate leaving the house. I need to get my truck inspected also. Ugh! I need to get back to preparing for the trip to DGS's...

    Slept in a bit this morning. I seem to be getting better at that! My guess is that it has something to do with not wanting to get out of a nice warm bed. Coffee is good - on to cup #2!

    DH worked for a while in another city. We bought him a big 5th wheel trailer that was NICE! He lived in it for about 6 months. When that job ended we sold it. Would have loved to keep it but we don't have a rig to pull a 5th wheel. Had to hire a mover and that wasn't cheap.

    I can't blame you a bit! Honestly, we played poorly for over half of that game - but I guess they played MORE poorly, lol.
