I Know, bad farm fairy!!!!

So as you might guess, this fairy has been VERY BUSY!!! Two tons of feed into barn....A challenge as I had to make room for it all on my own ...No thanks to spurning my ankle. As well as getting all the pallets out of carport and into barn...Thank heavens for the John Deere....I too found a new bird, stuck inside barn. Handsome as could be. Rocky spent part of the day challenging Thomas! Rooster is taking his job very seriously these days and growing seemingly over night. We are thinking he will be very big.Learning to crow, which as a youngster is a crack up giggle each time I hear him. He has decided that he will crow at the front door to inform me he is joining the party inside. Aida is content to watch TV with Buluga..Who would ever guess that a hen and dog would watch TV together....I chase her out as if hubby sees this he will have a royal fit, and I suppose I should not encourage them to make this a habit. I anticipate hubby hearing of this via Bondo and all *&#* will break loose......

How I sprang my ankle? Well lets put it this way I'll never be invited to dance!!!Not a lick of grace or balance, can't sing either...Even the radio in the Miata stopped working as it could not take my singing while flying down the highway....Hubby never complains or cringes...He is so great that way. Back to how it happened...Well I was getting the feed off the pallets and fell through a weak spot...End of story..I tried to continue the job but swelling said ice ice ice.....I heard hubby and Ang going "oh you goon" so I spent the day with my friend ice and the taxes.

Taxes being the other reason for my inability to blog...I am half way done and the idea that there is more makes me nuts..This years taxes will be easier thanks to msn money!!!!
You have not idea the mounds of paper that one has acquired in the few years of life.. I spent the better of a day surrounded by papers from a newly found box....

My folks stopped by with mouse/rat bait and found me with eye patch over infected eye...( on going thing) and mom and I tasted a newly found over grown apple tree...Amazing taste considering the other two huge apple trees are only good for the live stock....Not fit for eating. I am hoping for enough time to fry up the apples and can them up, although that will require me to go get more jars. I have not even had time to read anyone's blog...Inkling, Bondo or Ang. Sorry I am going to do that today. Hubby is happily working 12 and 13 hours a day ..... His foremans job is keeping his brain and body the work out he drives for....I am planning to go down and see him before the pass is a challenge so I'll be off to visit him the last weekend in October....He might not be home for longer than we had thought. As long as he is happy...I figure he'll get home when he runs out of farm fairy food....

Well that is the update of Halleyville and your farm fairy....Hope all is well in your world. Fog greats me in the morning and burns off for a beautiful if not chilly day...Fall is slowly coming and winter will be around the corner in a short time....

I'm glad to hear you are surviving, though I doubt you'll give yourself enough time to rest that ankle so it really heals. How I wish I could just skip across the border and help you with the apples. Of course, I just noticed a bit of applesauce on my ceiling, apparently from too vigorous working through the old-fashioned colander. Maybe I'd even watch tv with the hen. too funny......take care of yourself, okay?
