Sounds so good!

We are out of cheese.... no shopping until next week.

:hit
:-o If you were my neighbor, I'd run some over to you! I always say, if the cheese and chocolate companies all closed, America would starve! :D

Yep -- coffee over with. Last went down about 6:30 as I picked up DGD to take to school. Back home, feed chores, list for shopping while out doing my crappy 2 hrs of work for others. :D =D Barely worth the time to start the truck but, I did move the jobs to the day that I wanted to be out shopping. Convenient. Then off until my Sat & Sun demo work. I am really learning to like all the at home time but, yesterday I managed to do NOTHING!!
Zip, nada, nope....lazy day and I enjoyed that too.

It was cold & windy. Today was 27 at get up :th Not pleasant. Didn't like it at all. I hate the cold weather -- especially if it is snowing!! OK, pretty for first hour, until ground get white...then I want it to STOP! Thin ice on some tubs & some road puddles. :( Guess winter is coming early? Rats.

I'll hussle out and ride the tractor this afternoon. Couple more holes in dirt road I want to fill with rock/dirt. Got most done last week, these are the pothole ones, others were 5 FEL & spread. Need to move my dog kennel panels tomorrow. Moving some chickens to new housing. They'll need containment for a few days so I can restrict the old place they were using. Darned free rangers gone rouge ones. We'll change that! Then, I can expand the pregnant doe quarters over the next 2-3 months. Moving some stall areas in the barn.

Always something to do, right? Well, there is at my place DD off tomorrow (Thu) & Fri -- plan to get her help & do a stall panel at her place for/with her. :) Rarely do I get help! Will be nice.

Just sat down with my morning mug. Found a different shaped/color egg this morning so I guess one of the other pullets has joined the first. Pretty sure the first was a BO and that this is one of the RIRs. I don't eat a lot of eggs anymore so if only two lay through the winter, that ought to do me just fine. The other three can wait till spring to come online. Today is supposed to be very windy but bright sun and temps in the high 60s low 70s. I need to get back to work on my new goat barn bldg. Have the 2 side walls waiting to be framed and stood up then sheathed, then the roof and I can call it "good enough for now". Supposed to have T-storms passing through Friday night.

Everyone's so industrious today! :D All I've managed to do is run laps in my living room, waiting for eggs to hatch. Speaking of which...the little feller poked a hole out to where I could see an egg tooth, then less than 4 hrs later, there he was! :D Little Gus Gus is a poppa! I'd take pictures but I lost my blasted phone in all the chaos (yup yup, first hatch LOL).
