manic monday

It has been a very long Monday.
It went something like this:

Wake up
Feed and water the turkeys
Then the rabbits 
Monday morning breakfast meeting
Go pick up express mail from the post office
Cut down a random tree in the yard
Drive out to tend the laying hens
Move the rabbit tractors
Move and feed the little pigs 
Then the big pigs 
Set up the sheep move, water
Water the turkeys again
Throw together leftovers for lunch
Clean up giant mess in the kitchen
Bum money for gas from daniel
Drive to Farmville to pay my lawyer
Clean out rabbit cages
Load up cattle panel for sheep fence 
Play in the rain
Milk iris the goat 
Finish moving sheep
Cook dinner

and now we are here.
nine days left until payday, and groceries.

I forgot to take a picture of the meatloaf and baked potatoes we had tonight. But wait, I do have a picture of the chicken stir fry we had on Saturday. We enjoyed it.

I was out watching them and saw three boys ganging up on one girl, so in a hurry I fixed up a cage and moved her into it. She was visibly shaken, breathing quickly, her hair a mess with tufts pulled out (that was the first sign I saw that something was going on.) The next d...

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved.   Until next time, Angela Kelly
