We love you! Can’t wait to make you proud!
haha I bet I can guess who this is!!! I'm already proud of you!
Hint: Don't tell him, but BJ left a gift in his closet. Let him find it.

We pull out this morning for Groveton. We have worked like insane people, packing up all these small items that seem to appear out of nowhere. The contractor, super nice guy will help us load the refrigerator, recliner that I'm sleeping in, end table and chest of drawers this morning. @Ridgetop and her husband are sleeping on that sketchy air mattress. Haha, during the first night, he had to get up to use the bathroom, and rolled out on the floor! Incase y'all want to know, when old people hit the floor, we can't get up easily and have a tendency to lay on our backs, arms and legs waving like a turtle.

We are having a great time, Can't put the two of us crazy ol' ladies together and not have laughter. Once unloaded and stuff crammed in various places, we start on sheep and dog pens. I'll be worried until I get my animals with me. Nobody wil be living there rightaway and the dogs are already weirded out. Sheep-Eh they dont care as long as somebody shows up with feed.

Internet is about to be turned off. I'll try to update on my phone.

I’d been soaking the bolts that held the fuel tank to the stand in PB Blaster and they loosened right up.
Love that stuff!!!!

Getting close to being done moving things there Bay. But I have a question, if the new owners are going to have animals, would it not have been easier to sell them those big round bales and buy some new for the Groveton house?

DD has set me up on a hot spot. So I can get online on my phone. Or something like that, she's the brainiac, not me. I do good just to turn it on. LOL

We have cargo trailer mostly unloaded. Heavy stuff now, son will be in tonight and he can help in the morning. I dropped the flatbed trailer last night so we could go eat.

We are trying to get the kitchen organized now...... MORE BOXES!!! Does it REALLY take all this for me to cook?

Yesterday @Ridgetop, her DH and I got a temporary pen built for Trip and Carson. It's made out of horse panels, at 5' tall, Trip can't jump out. We also unloaded the majority out of the cargo trailer, but there is still a little left in there. The flatbed is still packed, might get started on that today. Planning on starting on pens for the sheep. If we can get pens up, then we can go get the sheep and dogs. Anatolians will stay with the sheep. Robert is taking care of them for me, but I worry about them and want them here.

Kitchen is not unpacked, but Ridgetop and I have been cutting vinyl to go in the drawers and on the shelves. I like to use vinyl flooring scraps instead of shelf paper because it lasts forever and wipes clean. Plus with my iron ware and big heavy pots, vinyl holds up to the abuse I heap on it. We got some more scraps last night from my sister in law.

Haha, it was 10 miles to Apple Springs where I found a dish drainer at the dollar store, then 10 miles to my sister in law's to get the vinyl, then 10 miles back then we went to Crockett for Chinese food. All of this travel in the dark, through the woods, and Ridgetop's DH was utterly lost. All this distance to go anywhere is why I need a new car with great gas MPG. That was close to a 70 mile trip just to do all that, then 30 miles back from Crockett to home.

We put several layers of cardboard underneath so we didn’t cut the floor.
