Good grief , the past two days have been extra windy for around here. Gusts to 40 mph with sustained winds of about 25 mph. Throw in temps in the low 30's and it's pretty dang cold out there. On the bright side it will quit soon and we'll have a couple of nicer days before the next cold comes through.
Tim got the hydraulic hose fixed on the tractor and we're back in the hay business. Glad we didn't have to resort to pushing or dragging the bales to the horses! It was a busy weekend for Tim, on Sat he traded one of the bikes (the one he has been riding) for a couple of guns and a new generator. Sunday he put it together and wheeled it off the truck. Ready for the next power outage!
Not much else going on but just checking in.
You all have a diamond day!

Ground hog day
The ground hogs think we will have an early spring but I disagree. We have been about a month behind since last fall. I figure that we will have winter until sometime in April. Just been such a mild winter and I've enjoyed it. Having a cold front coming in with a lot of wind is reminding everyone that it is still on the calendar.
We had a really nice weekend with a visit from my sister and brother in law. He came up to help Tim with work on the tractor. They couldn't find the right part though so we are still broke down. Maybe this weekend.....Then on Sunday our son was able to come by for a nice long visit. A little catch up was great!
I was able to catch the horses all taking their nap at the same time! Doesn't happen very often that someone doesn't stay "on watch".
This is for my sister...she can make her husband crazy when she tells him she has a new idea! haha He just loves her redneck hillbilly ways. She does enjoy teasing him.

Here's George and Hannah sharing a crate for their evening nap.
One of the family's nephews by choice has had a heart attack! He has had a stent put in the completely blocked artery and rooted the other. No damage to heart thank goodness. Good grief, he and his family have been through so much the past few years and now this. I'm sure they will get through this too but it just doesn't seem fair.
My great nephew is out of the hospital and has returned to work from a partially collapsed lung! No injury or accident, just spontaneous crap! Life never ceases to amaze me!
