We couldn’t or didn’t want to pay out the money
the plumber wanted to charge for fixing all our rental’s plumbing
problems. Darling Husband and I were
working on it (I mostly kept him company and played gopher) when our tenant
came home. He jumped right in and
started helping Darling Husband.
Together the men were able to fix the plumbing and the septic tank
problems and ended up saving us a couple thousand dollars.

We found a hole in the fence that the dogs have
been getting through. I had to run
around for a few minutes before I could patch the hole and so I cabled the
dogs. When I went back to fix the hole
the neighbor had patched it. The dogs
have stayed home for the last 2 days.
Teen son who is battling ADEM is starting to
feel better. I spoke with a neurologist
last night and they may want to give him IV steroids again. Praying my son continues to improve.
Getting the dogs used to the baby chicks. I don't know how I forgot to take a picture of the chicks.
3 of the eggs College girl saved have hatched
so now we have 3 noisey, lovely chicks in the house.
One of the joys of farm life (even mini-farm)
is it can’t all go bad at once. Death
happens and there is new birth. The
place that had a cracked water pipe is now a nice grassy spot the sheep are
enjoying eating at.
Darling Husband’s truck is still broken but the parts are on order, I am
sure as soon as the truck is fixed something else will break down but that’s a
part of the process. We chose a full
life with a lot of children, a lot of animals, and a lot of stuff. The more stuff the more issues, but our life
is full and I can’t imagine it any other way.
