Blustery Day
Posted By Elaine on February 11, 2009
We are having quite the wind today. The weather was simply gorgeous over the weekend and we were out walking the property. I am not the family historian so of course I forgot the camera. That is going to be the hardest thing for me is remembering the camera. We saw a fence on the property line on the north side of the property but none on the south. It was in the 70′s and sunny. Today we are having weather warnings for wind and possibly small hail. Sounds like a good day to make soap…or clear out the garage for the chickens whose arrival is eminent.
I made a beautiful batch of Lily of the Valley soap yesterday. That is one of the few flowery smells I have liked. It is not overwhelming and fresh and clean. After that the boys and I went to town to run a few errands. I went to Lowes with my chicken coop plans and my husband had told me to take them to the contractors desk and they would be able to give me a print out of the cost. Amazingly I didn’t believe him but did it anyway and low and behold he was right! Ten minutes later I have a list of materials and their cost! I am excited and nervous about this as I am not a carpenter. I built the last coop we had but it was real small and “cattywampus”. I did not have any plans for that one. Maybe with directions I will have better luck. I am hoping to enlist some help from friends and get this done in a weekend. We will see, and I will have to remember my camera for that. Ya’ll come back now.
