What's everybody doing today?

[OldSchool]

More ebay stuff today. If I don't list it, it won't sell. I'm getting it down to a science now. Selling saved my butt a few years ago, it's panning-out well this time too.

Debating hard about if I should sell my Pyrex Dutch Oven....
Never used it, but could come in pretty handy for good practical use.

Boxes.... I might need to do some dumpster-diving. I already have a plan.

A wise man might come along to say: Apperently you don't need it. Sell it.

We have high wind problems late morning coming. Husband has a doc appt I'll take him to. He is not going to like being out in the wind. I'll stop in at Walmart after that and pick up a few things.

 

[snappy1]

I will walk first.
Take Aninja to vet for bloodwork.
Once back, I'll pick up friend and go to hardware store, Dollar General and local grocery. All in little town.
That may be all unless I find something else pressing.

Hubby and I rescheduled our jobs today. High wind warning and extreme fire danger. I know we will have more tree damage. We definitely want to be around 'just in case'! I'll catch up on all my inside work today.

We've still got a couple of fires started by lightning strikes Monday night still going not to mention countless strikes that have yet to flare upm

To top it off both Saturday and Sunday are total fire bans because of very strong winds that will likely ignite any unaccounted for strikes or help the presently burning within containment lines jump them.

Scary situation!!

It's pea planting day!

 

[Mountain trapper]

I shot a squirrel out of the bird feeder this morning. The dog has been carrying it around like it's his best friend. He keeps trying to bring it in to the house.
Going out now to see if the ice is off that pond down in the valley.

just had my first break since getting up and having lunch...
YES we did have 3 lambs, right when I went to the grocery store and wasn't here! Husband was but he missed it too, by the time he checked they were there and dried off, and nursing. 2 large girls and a decent size boy. This mom does well every year, she had 3 last year and fed all of them. I think she has a lot of milk ( giant udder, not mastitis, I checked, no lumps and milk coming out ok)

Then I got a surprise in the mail! A very nice California lady on this forum sent me some Jerusalem artichokes!! Thank you again!! You know who you are. LOL hope you don't get a million requests now that I mentioned that....

Going to plant them soon, if the last sheep doesn't have her lamb (s) . She is the youngest and smallest, and probably will have 1 ( I hope) , if it's more than one they will be really small

Hope you don't get any damage
I think we are supposed to get those storms this weekend

Just finishing up here in the fur shed and relaxing with an icy cold root beer and listening to the radio. Had a few snow flurries off and on most of the day. The temp is dropping, down in the mid 20's now. Supposed to have snow through Monday, we'll see. We need it.

I am SO happy it warmed up this week!! Supposed to hit 70 today. But next week is supposed to be colder again

When was the last time you used it? If it’s more than a year, sell. If you only use it to make one particular dish, can it only be made in it or is another pot/pan usable?

 

[Pearl]

Tasting and smelling dust even though the house is closed up! Listening to trees break!

Grafting day today. Trying to turn a crab apple tree into a useful fruit tree.

Amd for contrast I was reminded by Shutterfly what I was doing 10 years ago.

I was upgrading an jet air craft engine simulator I had developed 10 years earlier.

Re: fashion

Visitors to industrial sites are required to wear day glow vests so the regulars cann tell who to look out for. No rule says I had wear on the outside. I made the best of and turned it into a 3 piece suit.

We ran all our errands, husband's appt...RX pickup and I had to go to the TMobile store to get help taking the sim card out of the phone the dog ate. My new flip phone came to the house. Anyway, that problem solved. Wind is bad. Actually took out the power. Came home to Levi and little granddaughter rocking out on the electric guitar...our home propane generator kicked in so they had power. A bunch of big branches are down, can see them already. I picked up more very cool 5 gallon STACKABLE water jugs, I love that they are stackable, and talked the kids into filling them and taking them downstairs. Love having them as helper monkeys.

So far we have electricity! But there are branches everywhere!

 

[Amish Heart]

We've got a whole tree uprooted in a side pasture that I can see. And some very big branches down near the old outhouse. I always worry about our bee tree, it's a massive dead tree with lots of bees. I like them there and hope that doesn't come down. We'll see how long the power stays out, it's been over 2 hrs. I'm sure Levi will let us know because they are english and don't have back up power. He was over most of the day, so I told him to come back if he needs anything.

 

[Amish Heart]

Wind is still roaring, but amazingly the power came back on, so the generator is off. That wasn't too bad for those that use electricity around here. There's not that many.

it's very hazy and dry here plus windy. It looked like a little dust tornado on our road a while ago
