What a weekend on the farm!
It's been a busy few days around here and never a dull moment! Saturday morning was errand time, first to moms to feed the dog (she was in Mississippi for the day, mom is a pilot and we never know where she's going to be next, not bad for a 73 year old!) Then to the feed store and the grocery, I made it out with $32.00 worth of groceries and that should hold us thru the end of the month, thank goodness for two full freezers, we eat like kings here!
On returning home I found I'd forgotten the cat food, barn kitties were NOT impressed with me on that one! Put away groceries and grain and then went to put some of the horses out, note to self, CHECK WHAT HUBBY IS DOING before moving young spooky horses! MAN did Funky (young stallion) ever take me for a run when hubby dropped that load of old rusty iron, we got a tour of the front yard! Kept him in control though and he actually enjoyed the spook!
Caught up on laundry and started getting things together to get back to ebaying, need to get those bills paid down!
Then dinner was steak, garlic bread and baked potatoes (don't hate me! Steak was from a home raised steer!)
Sunday was the real kicker though, you'd think that living back a lane in small town Ohio would be quiet, NOT! We have more traffic and noise back here than we did living right up on the road. This time it was the sheriff, seems one of the neighbors teens threw another fit, don't know if it was the daughter or son (this time) they both have severe emotional issues and we are NOT comfortable having them so close, ugh! And these kids are only 14, we're in for a long haul! This was the 3rd visit that I know of from the sheriff in 2 months!
Monday was a run to the bank to pay $45 extra on the mortgage principal and set up a meeting to refinance and lock in a rate. Then off to Staples for a new digital camera since the old one died.
Oh, on the savings front I started a new account,hey it's only $6.18 but better than nothing! This is our Anniversary fund, we've been married for 12 years now and plan on a spectacular vacation on our 20th anniversary so putting all our change in this account from now on. It's an ING account with %3.5 interest, hope to watch it grow quickly!
Dinner was crock pot soup made with round steak, corn and beans with a few basil leaves, all home grown, yum!!
After chores today I'll start taking pictures of some of the rail road pieces hubby and I will be selling on ebay, anyone need a locomotive cab signal or air gauge?
stay tuned for more!
