Gosh…I am…

Apr 19th, 2008 by Jenn

A SLACKER! I would like to blame the reason for not posting on school but I can’t this time *L* I mean I have homework, but I have had time to update the blog I just didn’t. I know - I’m terrible - get over it ;)  I have been surfing the web and catching up on the blogs I like to read, been looking up stained glass stuff (my latest hobby) and trying to figure out what to plant in the garden this year. We bought some plants today at Lowes. I will be planting those babies tomorrow (yes of course I’ll take pictures) I still need to update Cody’s birthday pictures. Apparently I let my Flickr acct lapse and it wouldnt let me upload any more pictures. There’s a limit of pictures on the free accounts I guess. So I had to pay for that before it would let me upload - so now that it’s paid I’ll get to uploading. OK onto the updates…

(Farm) Still hoping for rabbit babies. We bred Sassy and Angel so I’m expecting a litter around the 1st week of May. The baby pigeons have all their feathers and are doing wonderful! I’m soo excited that these lil guys made it through. Their parents have already started a new nest (away from the babies) and have been sitting on 2 more eggs. I had a tremendous amount of fun trying to catch 2 runaway pigeons on Tuesday. The wind blew the door of their pen open I guess. I had the front door open with the screen for some fresh air and a white bird flew right into the screen *L* scared the crap outa me! So I went to check if it was ok and realized *crap* that’s MY bird! *LOL* So I ran to their pen and 2 of my escapee pigeons were standing there (mocking me!) from my neighbors roof. It took about 4 hours before they FINALLY decided to get back in there…but everyone is back and safe and sound :) I caught my ducks mating today - kinda strange. They rarely make noise so when I heard a honking/hiss noise I assumed something (stray cat/squirrel/oppossum) was bothering them. Out the door I went with a broom just to find out they were having a moment *LOL* Sorry ducks! hahaha so maybe I will have some baby ducks this year.

(Kiddo’s) Both my nerds are doing great. Cody took a 30 word spelling test the other day and missed one - go Cody! I.m such a proud momma.  He has done so good in school this year! Emily is quite the chatter box (as usual) she rarely stops talking. She’s just like her momma ;) She has been loving going outside and helping me get the garden ready and feed all the animals. Although she’s a tad upset that last years kiddy pool is mostly green in color and STILL has goldfish swimming in it. Now I KNOW that pool froze solid over the winter so I was not expecting anything to be alive in there but they are - all 4 of them.

(Me and Jay) Same ole! That’s my update *L* Same crap - different day. You might wanna buy some stock in Lowes…We are planning to do some serious house repairs this spring/summer,  they have been needing to be done for a few YEARS now.  Painting the house(outside), putting in new flooring, new bathroom sinks, some hole repairs in the drywall (thanks to our potbelly pig zsa-zsa) , replacing the backyard fence, plant boxes around the tree and in front of the house, driveway repairs - and a few other odds and ends. Should be exciting :)
