Tim worked OT on Sat and Sun, now he's working his reg trick. He got the little pasture over-seeded on Friday. We may be able to do the other little one soon. Jose came by last week and said he was going to put in a well for the cows. We also got 2.7" of rain this weekend and the weekend before that we got another .8"! We have a start now on doing away with this dang drought. We're no longer in the severe category. Yay!
The kittens are thriving without their momma. The are beginning to try to eat dry food. I hope they catch on quick. They are so cute. I love watching kittens play. Here's Number One:
Yesterday I went to my sister's and enjoyed a good visit. I know she was unpacking boxes and I just watched but we had a nice visit anyway. Her new house is beautiful and coming along nicely. It will be a home in no time. She took her Sheltie to the vet this a.m.. got him on some pain killer and some steroids for a few weeks and see how that goes. Not looking too good for the old fella.
Here's Number Two:
We actually had to mow the back yard last week! First time in months. Of course with the drought it wasn't growing. Time to mow the front now. At least part of it.
Cheryl never made it down for another basket class and neither did Marylou. They just don't know what they are missing. lol. Now that it's cooler I will probably make a few more. I think I will have to make them outside - I've got to clear my sewing table off so I can do a little sewing too. So many projects and so little time! I've also got to get my houseplants ready to come in for the winter! Talk about a honey do list! Only this time it's MY list.
It's been a diamond day but I gotta go for now.

Wonderful Saturday!
Today is Tim's birthday! Even though he has to work he will have a good day.
Yesterday we had a storm come through that had very high winds (abt 80mph) and some hail and rain. We didn't get any hail but those winds were sure strong. Blew my birds right off their table.

Once again having trouble with the editing part of the this program. Doesn't seem to want to edit correctly. Oh well, I'll do the best I can with what I have to work with.
It's been a diamond.

It's a great start....
to Sept.! We got 2.3" of rain!!!!!! How cool is that? Our vacation started on the 31st of August. Was a really nice and relaxing time. We puttered around the house, got a few things done. Played with the kittens. I'll get a picture of them later. Mawmaw Kitty has decided to no longer live here. She figures the babies are okay with us and left them for her freedom. Too bad for her. I sure hope that Jonathan's friend Chris can have a kitty. As much as he does for his mother I would think that would be up to him.
Anyway, we have the little front pasture gated off from the kids and will try to seed that section this weekend. If Jose gets his well drilled soon we'll be able to do the other little pasture as well. We have the seed already (it was 25% off!). Yay! We'll be able to keep them off of it for most of the winter and hopefully spring too!
Got Jeannie wormed again. I'm hoping it will help her. It may be that her teeth need floating instead. Not really a problem but not sure I can spare the $100 or so. I need all I can save for the winter hay. Her feet are still pretty sore but they are improving her ability to get around.
I missed throwaway Thursday a couple of times last month. This month I plan to make up for that. I will be moving the "cow collection" to the shop and next spring it will go to the trash if no one comes after it. I need the space in the garage for this winter. I'm thinning this crap down no matter how I have to get rid of it.
Gotta go - storm is coming...Diamond day
