Junkin' Day

I go back to work Monday, so I decided to go Junkin' today.  I have been wanting to the the power tools out of the bedroom floor.  I was going to put them outside under the carport, but they might get stolen there since there will be no one here during the day.  Today, I found an old small cedar chest.  It was really beat up on top, but was  just the right size to fit under the window where the tools have sat for years.  It was good and sturdy, but the wood was gouged and even had two holes in the top.  But, it was only $30 and the right size.

I set it up under the window with Grandma Powell's quilt that Winnie gave me covering the top.  

The tools fit inside nicely.

And, I also bought this pretty wooden hat box and a Dale Earnhardt Jr. tin sign for Robert.

I think I will store photos in it.

Hannah has went to stay with a friend so Robert and I are going to celebrate by going to Western Sizlin.  It is seafood night.  He loves shrimp and I like the frog legs.

It is turning cold.  Supposed to be below freezing tomorrow night.  Glad I got the little heater going.

Got to go feed the goats so we can get going.

A Bakers Dozen

This is our 12 Girls, an even dozen.  I think they are all bred.  We  have 3 that will be a year old the end of November.  I had intended to wait till the first of November to breed them, but Earnhardt has been our among them a few times and I think all the are bred except the 2 really young ones.  We have two females that are just 5 months old that should not be bred.

/This is Earnhardt this morning.

He is pretty.

This is Big White's billy, Milkdud.  We sold him to Linda T and she came and got him yesterday. He was just 4 months old, but was pretty good sized.  This pic was taken the second week of August.  In the last month, his head and neck began to take on the look of a real billy.  I am glad he has gone to a good home, because I was having to pen him up to keep him from breeding the two little nannies.

This is the purple plum tree my QA friends at work got me with the mum from Lisa planted next to it.  I think they are goat proof.

I have been cleaning and tossing.  I have done all the rooms except for Robert's room.  I am starting on it today, but it may take a few days.  It is in quite a mess.

We got Hannah's room painted and Aunt Helen made her new curtains.  It looks really pretty.  I will post pics tomorrow.  Now it is on to cleaning.
