As you know the first picture is of the boys demanding their meal!  Don't they look starved to you? ;~)  Another month or so should do it and they will be in the freezer or off to the auction.  We decided that we still have quite a bit of beef in the freezer and won't have much room for two.  But shhhhhhh.   we don't want them to know that yet.

The bottom picture is of the pond.  We decided to leave the fish in the pond this year and just put in a stock tank heater to keep the water warm enough, so that the fish will be able to survive without having to bring them in the house.  Last year we tried putting them in the stock tank but the cows and the horses share tanks.  For some reason the cows love to drag hay into the tank or put their butts towards the tank to go number 2 into the tank! We lost the fish due to the lovely mess the cows liked leaving, and of course then we have to dump the tank and start with fresh water all over again, just didn't work out well for the poor fish!

The hubby made it in one piece to the lovely sunny and 75 degree Florida! (lucky s.o.b.)  But he is going crazy without his Garmin!  He got spoiled by having a lady telling him where to go!  :~)  All kidding aside, he hates being away from home and on top of that he will be working 6-7 day weeks until the job is done.  He gets to use a drill that has never been run, and we all know what happens when a new piece of equipment has never been used.  ( you have kinks to work out)

We had rain yesterday and things are starting to melt, but still have quite a bit of snow on the ground.  Other than that is was a mild day and really foggy most of the day.  Hope you all have a great weekend.

Fly away!

It was a beautiful morning the day I left for NJ.  It was a nice day down here in Rockaway, NJ. But I will be headed back home tomorrow by 6 a.m. and we are supposed to get rain and maybe even a little freezing rain to boot!  Yuck, I hate the ice, I don't mind snow but why, oh, why do we need to have ice!  If we are lucky it won't be too bad.  It actually is supposed to get up in the 30's almost 40 but hopefully it doesn't get too cold at night.  We are supposed to have January thaw by Sunday or Monday, almost mid 50's!

The hubby takes off tomorrow out of the airport by 7 a.m. tomorrow for 2 weeks.  It could take longer but they are in a hurry for the job to get done.  He will be working at Universal Studios!  Some secret new place that they are behind in and they need to get done asap!  Poor man will be working seven days a week to get the job done in time.  So no play time for him.(which sucks)

Hope you all had a great day or are having a good day.

Wordless Wednesday

Clouds are starting to roll in.  The rain is supposed to come Friday and Saturday, as the weather turns warmer.  We are supposed to get up into the 40's those two days.   I really don't want rain, I would rather stick with the snow.

As you can see, I am able to post pictures.  I went to google chrome and now I am able to blog pictures.  I don't really care for the way that chrome is set up, so I only use it when I have too.  I like it so much better when I am able to post a picture, even if I do repeat the pictures.  I seem to just love taking scenery pictures. I do a better job with scenery than I do with people or animals for that matter.

Not much going on, went out to the barn this afternoon and wound a warp for a set of face towels.  I am hoping that a soap shop that we go to will like them enough to buy.  Hopefully, it will get me a regular market to sell too!  Wish me luck.  I was even given the opportunity to try selling in a restaurant store. (my kitchen towels that is)  So, I will be weaving and making money before I know it :)

I might go down to NJ to see the hubby tomorrow, so that I can spend some time with him, before he flies to o Florida on Friday.  Who know when I will see him again.

Hope everyone is having a great day and evening, where ever you may be!

Florida

Well, first the hubby is on his way to Florida at the end of week, so far that is.  I am not looking forward to not seeing my husband for the next four, too five weeks!  I hate it when he is gone during the winter months!  So lets pray that we have no major snow storms until he is back home.  I was going to post an old picture of the Florida beach, from the last time that he was down there working, we went to see him and took lots of pictures.   He had to brag to us yesterday that he was going to be in 70 degree weather with only 50's at night.  I wanted to club him over the head!  Florida was OK to visit but I do not like their bugs, @$#%$%^^. 

As I was saying before I let myself get side tracked, I was going to post a picture, but for some reason blogger is not letting post pictures!  It doesn't even let me browse for a picture, so that I can post it.  I am beginning to think that I just might go over to word press and see how well that goes.  I might just have to change my blog over.  We shall see.  It has been over four days since I have been able to post a picture and that is why I have not posted.   I like to post pictures but I guess I won't be for a while.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Ice

The son had to take this set of icicles and take a picture.  We usually don't get to take down a whole set without it breaking apart!  

I am down in New Jersey again cleaning and making money, yippee!   Glad to get away from the farm and school even if it is only for a few days!  No worries, (well, kinda of anyway) the kids take good care of the animals while I am gone.  Sometimes it is nice to get away even for just a day.  I am always glad to get home though, too!

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a great New Year's day.  I hope everyone has a wonderful year ahead!   Both the hubby and I stayed  up long enough to see the new year come in.  Usually it is just the kids and me that stay up long enough to bring in the new year but even the kids end up falling asleep most of the time!  I am one of those people that likes to stay up long enough to bring in the new year, even if it is in the comfort of my recliner!

I have to say though, that I am glad that the holiday's are over and we can get back to the normal everyday living!   Hopefully get back into the groove of things.   It takes months to get ready for the holidays and only a few hours for it to be over with.  Good thing it only comes once a year!

As you can see we are finally in the snow season.   It is supposed to get a little colder this week, it is going to finally feel like winter!  I have to say that I was glad to see some snow, finally.  I am just glad that we aren't supposed to get anymore for the next few days!   I like the amount we did get, just right!   Hope you all have a good rest of the week!
