Sunday, October 4, 2009
Well, here it is October 4 and I haven't put anything on the blog since I set it up. I do have some things to put on. I've done an October menu now all I have to do is figure out how to put it on the blog. I've also got all the recipes done for the month.
The last week has been a nasty rainy week. We really haven't got much rain just that it is nasty and turned pretty cold. I've had the wood fire going because the house is chilly and then pretty soon the house is like a sauna.
It was opening weekend of duck and goose hunting. The guys didn't have the best year. They still like to hunt those ducks tho. I can't see where sitting out in the cold and rainy weather looking for a duck would be any fun. Especially, since I don't think duck meat is worth eating.
Joe was out bow hunting last night. He saw a couple deer but didn't take a shot at them. He will be back for opening of firearms season. Adam was out last night but the deer that was coming to him got scared away when someone drove down the road. Adam will be back every chance he can make it.
Belle's puppies are really growing. She had nine of them. I am thinking of keeping one that looks like Tippy. I had to put Tippy down 3 weeks ago. That was a very sad day. He has been with us for a very long time. I started feeding puppy chow to them on Friday. They have learned to eat from a dish pretty fast. I blend the puppy chow with warm water so they don't have to chew right now. What they don't eat Belle licks the pan clean.
Tomorrow, I go and have some surgery on my varicose veins. Hopefully, they will stop hurting. I will be laid up for a couple of days. Maybe I will try and stretch it out for the week.
Hope everyone is in good health. Take care, Gma Julie
