Sunday Stills

We have my good old wheels to hold up my morning glories in the summer no rubber on these, then we have the nice lawn ornament that doesn't have any where near what the new tractors have now days, and last but not least horseshoes without the horse!

Going to NJ with the hubby next week and will be doing lots of book work on the laptop, along with getting things ready for taxes, and lots of reading material and study materials.  It will be a nice break from the running to doctors that I have been doing for the last few couple of weeks.  The kids will be here taking care of the farm and house!   Kegan does a great job taking care of things, along with Tawny.   It is great to have adult children to take care of things while the parents go away.

Hope you have a great evening.

Boring

The last few nights I have wanted to take a good picture of the sunset, but I have been slow on the uptake.  I have been getting to it about the same time and spot.  I get busy out in the barn and forget the time.

It was a lovely day today.  The sun was shining and a lot warmer, with not very much wind.  Monday or Tuesday of next week it is supposed to get close to 50 degrees.  That will be nice, but I am still waiting for the ball  to drop and get a boat load of snow.  February is almost here and that has seemed to be the time we get hammered with a foot of snow.  The hubby wants a nice long open winter, here is hoping he gets his wish, but I think it is wishful thinking!

Post seems pretty darn boring!  I just don't have a lot going on at this point, I pretty much do my day
to day thing.  I went and had my ultrasound done on my heart yesterday and now it is just a waiting game.  Hopefully, I don't hear anything, and that will be good news.  They said they would call if they found anything.  Other than that, .......that is pretty much all that is going on in my life right now.

Hope you have a great weekend.

New

This is the next scarf that is on the loom.   I did one that was mostly red, I did it for the daughter's boyfriend for Christmas.  I didn't get a picture taken of that one.  I hope to get one more scarf off the warp.  Then, I have some of  the towel warp that is left over from some Christmas projects.  I still have a shawl left to do.  I am going to let this scarf go until later and start on the shawl.

Today was a day of staying at home. (yippy)  Tomorrow it is back to another doctor appointment,  grocery shopping and back to the the whole sale store that is going out of business, to get the hubby and son some more military socks.  Then Saturday, I have a chiropractor appointment, then I will go back to doing some weaving.

The hubby has to work Saturday, and he isn't a happy camper.  I can understand why, when I had to work on Saturday's I hated it.  I will hopefully be going with him next week to cook for him and have a little alone time at night.  We don't get a lot of time together when he is home on weekends.   He usually has lots of things to get caught up on and then it seems that we always have company of some kind.  Then of course, the kids are still living at home and that makes things a little difficult to have some couple time!

Hope you have a great night.

Sell or not to sell

No pictures again.  I sold 15 bales of hay today.  The ad was on craigslist, and the guy said he would be here around 12 or 1.  Well, he showed, then proceeded to look at the bales for over 15 minutes complaining that they looked stemy.   Then he asked if I would go lower in price being as he had cash (like I would take anything less), I said no, that I had already lowered the price once.   Then we got the bales loaded and he asked me if I had it all tallied in price (like I wouldn't know how much it all would cost).    I tell you, I was not a happy camper by the time he left.  If you don't want the stuff don't take it, but don't bit....... to me about the price and the way they look!  The guy drove about  2 hours here.  He could of came before bringing his trailer and decide if he wanted the darn things before hand!!   I think he thought that if he hemmed and hawed long enough, I would change my price, or maybe it was because I am a women.  I think the hubby is the one that will be doing the negotiations next time, and no one is coming to pick it up unless he is home!!!   I know you always try to get the person to lower the price, but once it is negotiated don't be an ass.  Then he calls me and tells me he has a trailer for sale if I want to buy it.  (the son told him we were looking for one)  I would not buy it from him even if he was the only guy who had one!   We sold round bales a couple of years ago and had no complaints or problems.  I guess all people aren't easy to get along with.

Enough on that, now, other than that, my day was pretty darn good.  Hope you have a great night.

Pictureless

No pictures today.  I need to go out and spend some time with the camera and take pictures.

  Today I had the appointment with the colonoscopy specialist.  That lovely surgery is do February the 19th.  Now all I have is two more appointments this week and will be done until the end of February.

Jake was taken to the vet Friday and had his stitches and staples taken out.  We put a t-shirt on him so that he would leave the area of the incision alone and not lick it.

The guys went and bought another engine.  I have have a feeling the new barn, that hopefully will be going up this year, is going to be used for engines and not hay.  

Matt had a buddy from work come up and spend the weekend with us.  We took him out for breakfast at the restaurant that the hubby's cousin owns.  We went to the Beacon Wholesale that was going out of business (as you know from the previous post).  So, that was a very full weekend.  I was lucky the storm came down south or the hubby would not of been home this weekend.  Now we have to wait to see if he will make it home this weekend or not.

Have a great week.

Pink

Yes, I am one who likes pink.  We went to a wholesale yesterday, the business is selling out and we went to get the guys some winter things.  I found lots of wool socks, a pink neck warmer that has flaps that go around the neck, and pink camo glasses.  They actually match my newest camo gun that I bought last month.   My sister loves the color pink also, and we both are not real girlie girls, yes, once in a while I like to dress up, but I really prefer my jeans and boots!

It is pretty darn cold today.  The sun is shining and we were lucky enough to not get any of the snow that south got.  Yippy, I like snow but not blizzards and feets of snow.

Have a great day.

STRESS

The cardiologist did a stress test and said that I did fine.  I have to go back next week to have an ultrasound done on the heart, to see if anything shows up on why I am having an abnormal EKG.  He said that my cholesterol was high, but the regular doctor never told me about that the other day.  I then have to go back to the cardiologist in 6 weeks for a check up on my cholesterol.   I always seem to forget to ask questions, like why is the EKG abnormal, and how bad is the cholesterol etc.  I am going to call the office tomorrow and see if I can get the answers to those question.

It was a lot nicer here today, the winds have gone done a lot and the sun actually was shining and no snow flurries.   South of the city is supposed to get blizzard conditions, along with DC and some of the other southern states.  They can keep it!

After the doctor, it was grocery shopping and visiting the aunt and uncle for a bit.  Went to TJ Maxx to use my 25 dollar gift certificate.  Then it was home to put groceries away and cook supper.  Pretty much took care of my day.  Tomorrow Jake gets his stitches taken out, then next week is another full week of appointments and running.

Hope you have a great evening.
