...going on!!
I guess I missed a few weeks of blogging!! Things have been busy to say the least!
We started the paperwork and FAFSA forms for Courtney to go to college!!! We are probably looking at a Fall start for her, altho we arent counting out May yet, even if it is highly unlikely.
She is also motivated to work over the summer months... since she will have to pay for her own internet and cable while away at school. Since we are forking the bill for some of the schooling.
We are still nursing Quackers back to health...3rd round of antibiotics. It's been quite the journey with her!!
Runway was spayed yesterday. Brittany has been very attentive to taking extra good care of her! Really, she has been a nervous wreck!! LOL
We have an E-Lop in the house with boo boo ears... she sliced them under her nails.
I may have FINALLY (2 yrs later) found the super rare ducks I have been searching for. Fingers crossed that this "deal" works out!
We are thinking about (privacy) fencing in the upper part of the yard, where the coops are... and putting our "guardian dogs" to work at nite!! Our neighbors have all kinds of wild life living in their fallen down garage... and something is really after our animals up there. We lost another chicken.
We have started our "Family Dinner" nights!! It was nice to have everyone together last weekend! I think everyone really enjoyed themselves! Looking forward to the next one.
Looking into some advertising options for my shop. Excited about that!
Switched to a different Chiropractor... today was my first visit... I am happier already!
Nathan goes for his hunter safety course on Saturday!!
New truck tires are GREAT!! Love them... and they do awesome in the snow. Too bad I got to find that out in SPRING! LOL!!
Still loving my Land Rover! Way better on fuel... ugly or not! ;-)
Stacy has been hard at work on the Escort. The body is off... and it is in the garage for its motor swap. He had his steering parts custom made. It shouldnt be long now!!!
I've gone through hell and back with issues with my hip/knee. I am finally "over" the trauma from the hip injection... but I sure as hell wont be getting another one!!!! No thanks!!!
I think that about wraps it up. I am sick of this weather... and soooo ready for the "real" SPRING to show up!!!

2013... Weeks #8 and #9
Ok... it has obviously been pretty busy around here lately!
A quick recap-
*Something got in with the kid's ducks... we lost 1 and the other 2 were badly ripped up. These ducks have seen 2 different vets... been on 2 different antibiotics... tons of wound care... one got a nasty flesh eating infection that went all the way into the muscle. BUT, now we are seeing some recovery with both of them! They are living in our side kitchen right now... and we have yet to figure out what got them or how it got into the coop with them! Whatever it was got in with the chickens this week, we lost 1 chicken.
*STILL waiting on the new tires for the truck to arrive!!! Grrrr!!!
*Last week we were still looking for another vehicle. This week we decided on a Land Rover... and made the purchase. LOVE IT!
*Got rid of the CRX... It now belongs to Josh. He is beyond ecstatic about it.
*Ordered and received a book on mesothelioma for my grandfather. TONS of info... he is pleased with it. Just wish my asshole mother would quit using him to pay her way in life. He needs to really focus on himself and my grandmother!
*Stacy almost bought another Bronco. I am so glad that fell through... more trouble than it was worth! Now focusing on finishing the Escort!! ;-) His dad had that thing pulled out and on a tow dolly in less than 12 hours of Stacy saying he wanted to bring it home!! I bet he did a happy dance in the space it freed up in their yard!! LOL!!! I am excited to see some progress being made on it!
*Brittany is practicing with the UDA comp cheer team now!! They are in between seasons right now... but she is excited about cheering again.
*I will be placing my seed order THIS weekend!! I cant wait to get out into the garden... I have TONS of ideas!!
*It is actually starting to smell like spring... and my allergies are feeling it. I cant say I am sad to see winter go... I have had enough now. I am sick of slop falling from the sky. I am ready to get my hands in some dirt!
*Kids are doing good with school!
*Making good use of our "Y" membership.
I think that about covers things. I am hoping to have a bit more time in the upcoming week to put together a more in depth blog! Things have just been so damn crazy lately!! I am ready for some "down" time!!
