So DH came home, and said, what no goats? Can you guess what I did? Yup, :hit He said oh my, what is wrong? So I told him, and he said oh honey, I am sure that we will get this all worked out, and he hugged me. So I am now trying to still figure out what is wrong with the van. I am hoping that we can get it fixed, and then start saving up for some goats. The breeder told me that he usually has one or two up for sale. So hopefully when we get the van fixed, I can get one from him.

We are having a problem with a woodpecker on our chimney. Any suggestions on how to get him to stay off of it?

We are also having problems with our 76 gas card. Never again, will we get a card from them. Once we pay this months bill, we are done.

You've got some kind of bugs in there. Figure out what it is and get rid of them and you'll solve your woodpecker problem. Ants would be my guess...they'll turn your masonry to "sand" and make your chimney a giant anthill (happened in an old house I used to live in).

That's not the news that I wanted to hear. I figured it was bugs, just didn't think it was ants. Thank you. I will let DH know that we need to get up on the roof. Thanks again. :hugs

Well DH took the van today, he wants to see if he can figure out what is wrong with it. The mechanic said that he couldn't figure out what is going on. It wasn't acting up when I took it in. :barnie So I hope that my DH can figure it out, and then we can tell the mechanic. If not, I am going to take it to another mechanic. I am not sure what to do if no one can diagnose it. I don't want to get the goats, and then have the van die on me and have no money. On the other hand I would hate for there to be nothing wrong and the goats get sold. :hit
