Chicks On The Way

Well, things have been alright lately. Mike and I have been working hard to put away for a trip to Beeville, Texas this summer. Our stuff has been in storage for over 5 years. That's been too much money. So we're saving to get it all back. We've got some important stuff we can't get rid of. No specific dates yet. But we're working on it.

In the meantime, the birds are all doing great. We've got several hens sitting on eggs, all bantams. Well, one Black Australorp will be sitting soon I hope, too. I've also ordered 25 chicks from McMurray Hatchery. I ordered the rainbow layers, a variety of good laying hens. So it will be interesting to see what we get. They are due to ship on April 16th. I'm soooooo excited!!! I can't wait!

It's been nice chatting with some of you on Facebook! I'm on there regularly. If you're not my friend already, please stop by. www.facebook.com/ranman.pete

Hope you're you're all well!!

Is it gonna work? Don't have a computer, so I'm trying from my cell phone again. I'm on Facebook. www.facebook.com/ranman.pete  All is well. Mike and I are doing a bit of remodeling. We have 2 closets that were back to back. We knocked down the wall between the 2 to make a big one. We also moving the washer and dryer into there.  Planted a Winesap Apple tree and a Bartlett Pear Tree. Haven't started the garden yet, but by months end it should be well on it's way. I've included the link to my facebook page if anyone wants to be friends. I'll try this again soon! See y'all around!!

Missin' Y'all

So I haven't been able to blog for a few months.  I'm still alive and kicking.  I don't have a computer now, thus no internet.  Well, I do have internet on my phone, but I can't post on my blog. It just takes up too much memory and keeps timing out.  I do get to view my blog, though.  So I have seen everyone's comments.  I was just laughing, wondering how many blog rolls I've been deleted from.  Things are going pretty well.  Driving the truck is alright.  If I had to choose between the truck and the office, I'd pick the office any day.  It was more predictable.  It was pretty much 8-5 Monday through Friday.  On the truck I may work late evenings or sometimes on weekends.  But the pay was better on the truck.  Of course, we still have chickens....and pigeons....and cats.  And of course we still have Max and Minnine, our two little dogs.  Mike is doing well.  He's at home this weekend while I'm at my parents.  I came to my nephews birthday party.  He stayed home because he was working yesterday.  I'm on my mom's computer updating to let you all know I'm good!  I'm on Facebook if anyone wants to be my friend.  I'm listed as Randy Peterson Jr.  I have two accounts with the same name because I wasn't able to get into my old account.  It's still there, but just won't let me log in.  I'll try again and if I get in I'll just delete the old account.

We had a  lovely holiday.  Christmas and New Years were spent with my family.  We had snow on a couple of occasions.  And we're expecting more snow this week.  I could do without the snow....and the cold.  I just don't like the cold weather.  I'm thinking of buying a winter home in the Carribbean or maybe Central America.  Perhaps Costa Rica.  I'd love to spend some time in the Rain Forest. 

Anyway, just wanted to let you all know we're good.  If you can't find me on FB, check with Tracey.  I'm frieds with her and Amy and Anna and Kim and Joanna and others.  See y'all around!!
