It's Mother's Day! Thanks to Rex & Kayti for giving me motherhood. It's the best adventure of my life.
I'm writing today because my husband wants me to. That's because some of his friends tune in from time to time and he wants them to read about HIM!
Rex, Kayti and I are about to embark on a road trip to Ohio, for -- what else? -- a ham radio convention. Don't worry -- I can broadcast this on the Web because our place will be well occupied by a housesitter/animalsitter, plus our two ferocious shih tzus and one really scary Australian shepherd puppy.
The Aussie is new. Kayti and I gave her to Rex for his birthday, which conveniently arrived the same day we could pick her up. Her name is radio related, of course: Crystal. Also new at the farm is an old, skinny Belgian mare named Belle. I'm determined to fatten her up and get her coat gleaming and shining until she is the most beautiful horse on earth! This means, of course, that I have to work more to make more money for hay. As Rex says, I'm now working for 6 bales an hour.
I've hired a friend of ours, Tim, to restore my wagon. Ostensibly, this was to involve simply replacing the rotted wood with new. Sadly, by the time he removed all the rotted wood, all that was left was the axles! So he is rebuilding it from the axles up, and I am very excited about it.
I'm at work, so must sign off. Till next time ....
