Always doing laundry
Had to redraw the property lines cause of road issues so we are down to 2.5 acres for now but we have aquired 65 feet of woods because we had to turn the property line. FIL said he doesn't care where we put in fencing cause it will eventually be ours anyway so that is good. Barb from Cornerstone Farm sent me the plans for her dream barn so that has helped me gain some perspective. She has 30 goats that she milks so her plans make a lot of sense. We are still working on the money issue but we'll see what happens. It's not supposed to snow until later this afternoon and later tonight so I am going to the library and the grocery store real quick.....oh, and I picked up a copy of the new Square Foot Gardening book for $5 at Dollar General and now I am dreaming of my raised beds.......I can't wait to try some new plants this year. I want to do some kale and swiss chard and maybe some fennel and some purple carrots for the kids. Every time I look at one of my books or seed catalogs I think of something else I could add.
Oh, and we have had a casualty.....ironically it was the hamster. All this snow and stuff and one of our inside animals kicks the bucket, go figure. Poor thing, Chad gave him some treats and evidently he stuffed his pouch so full of stuff he got stuck in one of his tubes and um, expired. Sad thing is that my husband threw away the cage (it was broken anyway) and the kids have not even noticed he's gone.
