Good Morning!  Made it to Billings and back , got our shopping done and didn't strangle anyone.  We were to Costco early so that helped.

Here is a pic of Smokie and Rowdy.  Rowdy is licking Smokie.  What you need to know is that They don't like each other.  I wasn't here when the pic was taken.  The girls took it so I don't know for sure what was going on.  I see Rowdy licking Smokie lately.  I wish I knew what was going through their minds sometime.



I have a batch of breaad raising for cinnamon rolls.  I will get a batch made up tomorrow too.  Then freeze them up for shipping.  I just want to get them done so I don't have to worry about them.

Kirby and the hired hand are riding to start moving the pairs closer to the scales.  If it isn't raining tomorrow they will raide again.  I am betting that it will be though.  I know I sould like an old lady but my knee is hurting like it does when it is going to rain.

One of the barn cats that we got has run off.  We just aren't having much luck with them.  The one that is left is scared to death and you really have to coax her to get her to come out.  I don't know if she will make it as a barn cat or not.  I would hate to have to take her back. Round steak and tortellini, corn on the cob, fruit, green salad, and Carmelina bars for dessert.

Good Morning.  Off to Billings to get our first of the month done.  Of course it is supposed to be 95 today.

Here is the latest pic of the chicks.  Well, I guess it is what I got with the first pic I tried to take.  LOL




Here are the chicks.  2 weeks old.



Supper will something that we bring home from Billings.  Wish me luck I don't strangle someone before we get home!

since my last post.

• Cats are fickle creatures that one day can't live without you and the next care couldn't care less about you.
• Little 9 year old boys are silly
• The same little 9 year old boy does things when he is darn good and ready!
• Everyone seems to have plans for this weekend but us.
• Hot water heaters are a PITB to put in and plumbers earn e4very penny they make and then some.
• If you are persistent and ignore the bumps and bruises you will triumph over stubborn water heaters!
• I don't think that we are meant to have barn cats.

It is amazing the little things you learn in 48 hours!  LOL

Not much going on here.  Pooh has the first pep band thing Saturday.  Kirby and I are going in for first of the month shopping so she will get to drive herself in. 

Here is Bella and Tuff.  Kirby found Tuff at the end of June.  He had been wandering a pasture without his mom for about 2 weeks.  Thus the name Tuff.  Bella is our fat animal that refuses to get fat.  Defense Mechanism I guess!  LOL  They have become pretty good friends.



Supper tonight is Steak, tater in the crock, corn on the cob, fruit, green salad, and something for dessert.

Good Morning!  Off to the bus for the first time this year.  Kohl isn't going to be happy.  He will get into the routine but it could take a while.

The ranch pick up the hired man drives died yesterday.  He was about 6 miles away.  Luckily he had his saddle and was able to ride his horse home.  Kirby and I will have to take it in this afternoon.  Darn thing.  I hope the shop we take it to this time can fix the darn thing!

Look what Pooh brought home from school yesterday.  She is just so thrilled and delighted!  NOT



Not much else going on.  Pooh has her first pep band thing Saturday.  She gets to wear the uniform in the above pic.  She is thrilled beyond words.

Supper tonight is cube steak, corn on the cob that Kirby got in town yesterday, fruit, and some green salad.  Something for dessert but I don't know what.

Added:  I just got back from a walk with Kyra, Kohl, Lucky and Buddy, the barn cat.

Good Morning.  What a morning.  The first day of school.  Pooh was pretty impressed with herself.  She got to drive in today.  The first time we have her.  Her Senior year.  I just can't quite believe it.  I know it sounds stupid but I am having a hard time with it.  I always say that motherhood is the only job that your goal is to work yourself out of a job.

Here is their first day of school pic.  It isn't a great pic.  Kohl was not in the mood to have his pic taken. 




Well, sort of Kohl and Kyra start today too.  Well, sort of, my printer isn't working and Kirby is getting a new one today so we are making do.  He got a new one yesterday when he was in but it won't work for us so he will return it and get another when he is in today.

Supper tonight is Oven fried Chicken, taters, fruit, green salad, and ice cream with Homemade chocolate sauce for dessert.
