I took the sawmill over to the neighbors and yesterday we cut up and stickered a bunch of white oak for framing lumber. I taught him how to operate it, he's a awesome student. Around here white oak is good for framing lumber as bugs tend to stay out of it. We'll also coat it with borax (20 mule team) after the building is framed.

Got some chicken feed yesterday. Usually I get Flockraiser for the silkies (or the cheap brand version) but it's gone up another buck. Everyone is getting Egg Producer because its $5 cheaper and 21%. I'll check back later for the cheap stuff which should run about $10 less than the Flockraiser.

Good Morning All!! COFFEE IS MADE and it's hot just remember if you finish the pot turn the maker off. It's currently 4:08AM where I am, been up since 2:30AM, took youngest pup out to go potty as was walking out kitchen door got coffee brewing came back in put FH lunch together, coffee was done by the time I finished that so got me a cup (still working on that) went to computer room feed the pup breakfast played a couple games on the computer now pup is asleep in my chair in family room (which is directly off computer room) next to the 2nd oldest dog we have. It's currently only 27 here at this time-BRRRRR. FH alarm goin off but that doesn't mean he'll get right up (take him another 30-45 minutes OR EVEN LONGER to get out of the bed). Once FH leaves for work I'm thinking about laying down but haven't decided yet.
