Vacation

I cant wait until the 23rd. The reason is because that day I will be leaving to go to St. Louis for a month. I will be spending time there with my Grandma and other family. I am so excited that I am ready to start packing even though I still have a little over two weeks to go.
There is a problem though when I get back I will have to watch my little sister while my parent go out of town for 3 days. I love my little sister but she has a tendacy to make my nerves raw. Which means if I survive then I will probably need another vacation.
Since we now have a washer we are getting caught up on our laundry. Unfortunatly we now have a mountain of laundry to fold and put away. Which I need to start now.

Been Gone for A While

I know I have been gone for a while but I haven’t had much to say. I am still struggling with my mental problems. Maybe The Hub’s up coming vacation will give me time to think as well as give me time to do some Summer Time Cleaning.

It is pretty much like spring cleaning except that I am going to be doing it during summer. I have a long list of thing that I will need to get done during week one of The Hub’s vacation. Week Two will be getting a house keeping schedule done and getting used to it.

We now have 4 channels of T.V. Until 8 am there is nothing on. Then at 8am there is America’s Funniest home video’s. Then after that I watch Rachael Ray. I like her show. I have not gotten into watching soap operas but I may if I can get on a regular day schedule.

We have a washer now. We got it off Tradio. and the couple brought it too our house for a little extra. Its an old one with a broken lid.. but we know how to rig it and its better then having to wash by hand. We are still looking for a larger fridge though. Using a mini fridge full time is just awful.

On another note my brother is now is Japan. I am not exactly sure how long he will be there. I saw him on the 30th of June

I am addicted to housewife blogs. I don’t know why but I am. I have them saved on my phone internet web feeds. I also am addicted to baking blogs. I could make some brownies but it will have to wait until tonight and then I probably wont make them.

We are having a cool break here. It FINALLY rained so this week hasn’t been as bad as normal. The kittens are actually able to spend time outside soaking up some sun to help them grow. They are still stubborn though about getting their morning milk. Especially Loudmouth (you can guess why he got that name).

Its now 10am and I am watching court shows waiting for The Hubs to wake up.

The Someday Farm

Some day Jesse and I have plans to have a Farm of our own. We both have different Ideas about it so it will take some time to work out the details. Part of the plan is to buy some land with an old farm house on it and remodel it on our own. We are also going to grow and raise our own food. We may eventually have our own milk cows. because lets face it dairy products are just going up. Almost $4 a gallon. And in my family we use a lot of milk. The plan is to have it in 10years. The farm house will need to have a lot of rooms because well we want a large family.

I am currently looking up different blogs so that we can do some research on the things we are going to do. Basically we have plans to where we no longer need to buy groceries or anything else and become semi- self sufficient. We definitely are going to have a couple of deep freezers to store meat in. Deer, Pig, Cow, Chicken, and maybe some others. We are also going to have a vegetable garden and laying hens. We will need a large pantry and cellar for the vegetables. I am working on learning to make my own breads so that wont be much of a problem and if we get milking cows we will have milk as well as butter and other things like that. I want to learn to make our own cheeses eventually. The furnace in our farm house will be an outdoor wood burning one.

I also plan on having a spot off my own. A rose garden. I just need to lose my brown thumb. Next year we are going to buy some tomato plant at the very least I am also going to try and grow my herbs to cook with…

Well I had better go its time for me to clean the floors.
