Sat April 30th 2011 Auction

Karen & Asa got some chickens and 7 rabbits. We got a young pygmy buck goat. Polish Chicken Trio. A dwarf rabbit. And a buff silkie rooster. The Polish Chickens cost us $17.50 each. The goat was only $40. The silkie was $10.50. The bunny was $6.50. Also got a hoe and rake for $5 each. It was alot of fun. We made some money selling our junk which paid for the critters we bought. When I find my camera I will post some pics.

Missing Camera and off to the auction

Well I cleaned out the car and my camera is gone. I am very upset over this so no pics today. We are off to the auction to hopefully make some good money. And now we can't find our cell phone either. GRRRR

Well we picked up our Ducks and Lola our angora rabbit doe this morning. Couldn't get the truck reg as we need a gift letter. Was also told my 501 status was surrendered for TX so I have to call and find out why. Been a heck of a day. Did some errands and then went thru all our storage to get a load of stuff to sell at the auction tomorrow. Wish us luck as we need the money. It isn't even May yet and we are already broke.

Thurs April 28th

Loni, Drew and I went over and helped Sheila put up her solar shower and do some boards on her foundation. She gave us three rabbit nesting boxes & we picked up our truck and water storage tank she gave us. We picked up pool supplies at Walmart. Stopped at a couple thrift stores. I scored a new mini oil lamp that hangs on the wall for only $1.99, a box of canning jars for $2, a cool pair of flip flops for Loni for .75, 6 new xmas craft kits for .50 each, an old cb for $3, hand radios for $3 and some other cheap odds and ends. We picked up pine bedding and chicken pellets at Tractor Supply. Had subway for lunch. We were given Katie and Trixie (bunnys) from a lady that worked at Tractor supplies. We started going thru the storage stuff to get ready for the auction sat.
Today we are heading to Jacksonville to pick up Lola our new rabbit and our pair of muscovy ducks. Then we have to insure... reg and get the truck inspected. We still need to pick up goat and rabbit feed and bread from the bread store. Then we have to come home get everyone situated and finish going thru storage.
Tomorrow is the Athens sale, hope we make some good money as we are already broke for May and gas prices are not helping.

Karen spent the night. The storm continued. I got offline at 2am. The dogs continued to bark. Gave up trying to sleep at 230... went and sat in my recliner... fell asleep off and on due to dog's barking... went back to bed at 530. Got up around 730. Moved 2 does into larger cage and left buck in the med cage. Drew had to go back to Crockett ER. Sometimes his meds fuck with him and sometimes not. I think he should stop taking them period. He is upset that I didn't go to the ER with him but I hate seeing him in pain so I sent Loni. Karen went home. Spent a hairy 15 min searching for BooBoo....scared to death he followed Drew down the road. Here the little shit was hiding under the bed. Got chicken out to make for dinner. We were supposed to go thru storage stuff to see what we can sell at the athens auction sat... but guess not today. Tomorrow we are supposed to go help Sheila and Fri have to get Truck insured... inspected and registered. Sat we will go to Tyler to pick up my new angora rabbit. And dangit if I didn't miss getting a mini lama for $50 this morning. It is 1130am .... the laundry is started and they are still not back from the hospital.

Drew and Karen before the Storm

Today is my mom's birthday. We had a hell of a storm today. Karen lost 12 chickens due to the storm over night. She is here visiting today.

A storm is brewing

Got some seeds into starters. Got the critters tended. Loni and I are playing on our laptops and Drew is watching TV. Bobby and Johnny have gone up to their cabin to settle in before the storm hits us. Bobby made me three more garden squares which will have some plants put in next week.

Diesel... camera date was wrong this was taken 04/24/11

We went to Jack in the Box and had about 15 show up there. Sold the clarinet to Julito. Which was a god send as I was worried about making it home. Then 55 showed at Sanc. Got some dog food donations. The presentation was good. Then left around 11pm to come home... got in at 2am.
Drew gets me up at 7am to go to Fair Field Trade Days and there were only 3 vendors open. GRUMBLES! But I did get three tomatoe plants and he got the part for the truck. Went to Walmart and Dollar Tree and forgot the dang TP! lol. Planted the tomatoes and Drew & Bobby are out working on fixing the truck. Friday I will start some plants from seed. We made ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch. Now I need a nap. I hope everyone has a wonderful blessed Easter.
