Fall finally arrived and I'm happy about that. Spring and fall are my favorite seasons. Makes it so nice to be outdoors and piddlin' in the yard or watching the animals.
Tim is still driving for a company about 25 miles from here and working long hours 5 days a week. Has to be there at 6 and normally gets home about 7 or so. It is getting us by. Our mistake in 2013 and our penalty. Half the income but same bills. Nothing that we haven't done before. Just finding new ways to stretch things. Funny, I miss the insurance more than the pay. Isn't that sad? Okay, enough whining!
All in all life is good. My family and friends are all holding their own so what more can I ask for?
The kids have finished putting the deck back on the new house. They used the old one and re worked for the new place and added to it. Nice wrap around. They were able to keep most of one side of the cottonwood tree. Between the fire and the trimming it looks quite bare but will bounce back sooner or later. Dahlia did not start school this year like I expected but sure they just wanted her to be little while she can. Don't blame them. The grand daughter is due to have her baby sometime this month. It will be another boy. I believe they are naming him Bobby. A family name of the father. Haven't heard anything from her in many months but see and occasional post on fb.
All the animals are doing well including 35 plus year old Buck. We got a little of his dental work done - might have been harder on Tim that it was on Buck. lol The rest of the herd is fat and sassy. Here are some of the little chubs. We have had enough grass this year and was able to buy enough hay for the winter. Still have some grass out there and it's November! Thank you , Lord!
