I just read your monster list for ideas. "Your lungs, your life". I like it.

I love your letterbox. Smart. The most artsy I ever get would be with pencil and paper, the results are not usually very impressive.

Sounds like you have your work cut out for you today. Good luck on getting new homes for the cute pups! I'd take one, but I need it like I need another hole in my head :p Can't wait to see what you do with the pots :D Have a great day sis!

for some reason i woke at 7:30 but have had a hard time getting going...i got a feeling its going to be a laggy kind of day.
i have to wait till 10 then give wally world a call so they can filmy perscription for my drs apointment in the morning
then i have to get sorted and head on out for the day...
its "big grocery" day.
so that means ive got to go through my coupons and take alook at the sales flyers online and do wsome mathicng up as well as figure out my actual food needs.

i also need dog food, rabbit food, shavings, cat food and cat litter today which is always fun.
buns are currently going through 50lbs a month not sure if that seems high for 8 buns...april ill hopefully have 2 litters on the ground so thatll mean ill probably end up upping consumption there too.

going to do some pricing up today too on the fencing, need to see if i could physically man handle the 100ft roll itll be cheaper to buy the 100ft roll, but fencing is heavy, i KNOW i can handle the 50ft rolls, so im going to try rolling one around at lowes today to see if its doable.
need to price the fencing for the back yard where the dogs will have free run and the fencing for the pen that will be attatched to the goat house (thinking a 50ft roll for that should be neough as its just a holding pen while there weaning, during the day once their weaned they will be in a movable pen as long as the weather is nice enough so im thinking i could probably do a 15x15 if i use the shelter as one "fence" pannel and that should make a good little play yard for them so got to price and figure and such.

gonna be a crazy day and im just not feeling the get up and go to get it started lol

i did manage to jump start my engine...
got my grocery shopping done, should be properly stocked now for the month other than the occasional fresh stuff and milk...
cats now have a full dry food bin (about 3 months worth) and enough wet food for the month, jack jacks mix bin is now full (im going to need to special order his pellets as i cant find the brand hes used to anywhere...)
picked up enough compost/manure for my strawberry bed and a 3cuft block of peat (shoudl do the 2 small beds and the strawberry bed). also picked up a bag of 10 strawberry roots so i can get those in and settled (june bearers and these ones will be pinched this year to encorage growth)

priced up fencing and t-posts too...
and i stopped at the fleamarket at the fairgrounds too theres alot more "crafty" stuff at that one, but the price for the weekend is kinda high and they only do tables by the weekend...so id have to see how the paintings whent and go from there.
got everything i needed acomplished, took all day, but im home, groceries and critter food is put away, baby pups pen is clean (still no interest :hu )
everyone is fed fettles and pottied so now im sitting for a little hwile before starting dinner.
im TIRED.

managed to get the mailbox back outside and a clear coat on it. will give it another coat tomorrow just to be on the safe side.

unforutnatly the co-op where i get the dog and rabbit food was closed today...so thats a job for tomorrow, i did go up to Tractor suppy but they ad none of the dog food left and only the purina rabbit food which was almost double what i paid at the co-op

tomorrows plan involves
Removing the peat and the compost/manure mix from the back of my car
Drs Apointment
Pay my Gas Bill
A quick stop at the freds discount store
then all the way down to Selmer to pay my waterbill (it idnt arrive so i have to drive down there to pay it in person instead *grumbles*) and to the selmer co-op location (will call first to make sure they have what i need if not ill have to head into savannah after all that. i need dog and rabbit food, there both on "enough for tomorrow" measures lol.

so yeah, tomorrow will also be a crazy day. im hoping i can get the dirt unloaded and into the beds before my drs apointment so at least thatll be done, then when i get fomr another day of running round like a maniac i cna hopefully get that first batch of strawberries in.
Duckies are SUPPOSED to ship out tomorrow, so im excited about that. (i already have everything i need for them because they were supposed to come 2 weeks ago)

tuesday the plan is to try and find enough pallets to figure out the goat shelter and get what i can done on that, then hopefully wednesday will be ducky arrival (which means mabe an afternoon with WBF?! :p (if not wednesday it should be thursday)
this weeks going to be a tad inasnity i think.

and some more exciting news...
ive foundan Opal Senior rex Buck! i cant afford him this month with trying to get everything else done, but shes in no rush to sell her opals off, so shes willing to hold him and meet me at the rabbit show in Lawrenceburg in April!
WOOT!
which will actually be perfect timing, assuming this breeding was sucessfull, ill be picking him up right around the time the girls are ready to rebreed :D

and in terms of pallets ANY help lol. ive got 3 definately usable...i think i can do this with 2 more pallets but if i can get 4 it would be even better (i could put a floor lol :D)
