I had forgotten how much space Matt takes up! Ever wonder what a size 16EEE work boot looks like? Here ya go... (That's my very cute size 8 sandal next to Matt's boot.)
Wow Friday already, this week has been a rollercoaster to say the least. Long story short, Matt and Sheena are staying with us for a while after their rental fell through. So we have been trying to find room for their stuff, getting their pets settled while trying to keep our pets from freeking out. ......Everybody breathe... I had forgotten how much space Matt takes up! Ever wonder what a size 16EEE work boot looks like? Here ya go... (That's my very cute size 8 sandal next to Matt's boot.) Despite the chaos, we have managed to get some things done this week. The roof is now on the beehive; just a little trimming to do. The last of the steel is also on the house roof: With enough steel left over to give Killwilly a new roof, and a very handsome top for Reliey's woodworking project birdhouse. Miss Avril's babies are growing like weeds, we have decided to sell both the doeling and the buckling as we have decided to start breeding Alpines. There is more information about the babies here. As I posted on the facebook page, Patches is bred and she is due to farrow September 1. We already have a waiting list so if you think you are interested please email me! Despite my best attempts at total neglect, the gardens are growing. The tomatoes are blossoming, the sweet peppers are up and thinned, the gooseberry hedge is planted, and the elderberry are producing blossoms! Finally, on a purely asthetic note, the perennials I brought with me last fall benefited from the deep snow cover last winter and are making me smile everytime I look at the front yard. The stone path is Gary's doing and will one day circle the house. We have a new front door, it is on the to do list this summer, just keeps getting bumped. Thanks to everyone who emailed about the pig post, there will be a part 2 this Monday dealing with housing and pasture habitat. please feel free to use the comments option on the blog. Share what you're thinking or ask questions. (I promise we don't bite) Take care everyone I'll see you tomorrow!
