I'm still here....

I know its been awhile . Been busy with my babies which I must say are growing like weeds . Already 2 months old . Geesh !!! LOLOL We have been working on the garden , trying out some new stuff to combat the weeds and bugs . We are doing 8 " raised beds, annual clover to combat the weeds  and a ton of mulch for the summer heat we have . We will also be using a cover over the seedlings to see if that stops the dam bugs  and shade over most of the garden area when the July heat moves in .  Will keep you posted on how it all goes . I haven't been able to post any photos as my photo files keep disappearing on me . So when hubby get a chance  he is going to help me find them COMPUTERS LOLOLOL Well thanks for stopping bye and photos to come soon .

We got some snow

We got some snow for Christmas. I hope you will enjoy the photos of it . It made everything simmer. Really pretty. All the kids enjoyed the snow too . Most of them had never seen snow so it was fun to watch them come out of there houses and walk for the first time in it.  LOLO  Everyone is doing really good . We moved Togee and Indee-Moon to there own house and they just love it . Lots more roaming space and its beside the girls and Togee is in love with everyone of them LOL Hubby is finally off nights and back on day shift . The night thing was killing me. He would go in for 5:45pm and get home at 3 am . Then I would be up for the rest of the night . Glad its over . I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and the best for the new year . Thanks for stopping bye

Catching up .....

I thought I would catch you up today . Hubby finally got a new job and just in time seeing his unemployment benefit's were ending. And he likes it alot, alittle something different for him . We had to file for bankrupted and lost our house in Chesapeake. But it was a good thing the stress was just terrible   and now life seems bearable again .  Our garden was a bust . What didn't burn up from our 100 degree heat all summer,drowned from the pass 3weeks of rain daily . LOLOL Boy I can grow great weeds  some are 2 foot tall . LOLOLOL We did get to do some canning of tomatoes and peppers. We will have sweet potatoes and beans still  and maybe some watermelons . But who's knows LOLOLL. All the animals are doing well . We are having a  problem with my goat "Gracie" .She is 7 months old and still drinking mommas milk which at this age is very bad for her and making her very fat. We are still trying to break her of this but momma isn't helping at all . So she is in another pen . The problem is the pen is small so when I open up another area to it she jumps the fence as graceful as a ballerina and runs to momma  and grabs on to that nippy and has a great big drink . So we are in the process of working on this problem.  Our baby ducks are growing like weeds and doing great .  Well all for now . Thanks for stopping bye
