CATCHING DRIPS

IN TIMES LIKE THESE WE CAN'T WASTE WATER. RABBITS HAVE SUN SHADES AND MISTER SYSTEMS WORKING. BUT MY HOSES HAVE DRIPS. SO I CAN EITHER GO BUY A NEW HOSE OR USE WHAT I HAVE AND CATCH THE DRIPS.....





Holy Cow...150 gallons "lost" in 2 hours!!!

JULY 4...I HAVE THE DAY OFF WORK!

At least I do if I work today until midnight. here is the list of farm chores I hope to complete tomorrow:

1. clean out the chicken house
2. use the chicken house stuff to fill the raised beds
3. rake the millions of pounds of mowed grass with the lawn tractor to turn it and let it complete drying
4. begin stacking the dry grass..this will be used for rabbit nest boxes, chicken nest boxes and rabbit food this winter. Dad said that they used to use a pole and pile the dry grass around the pole and it would not blow away
5. Clean out the area in front of the rabbit cages and run a magnet for nails
6. Take the rolling trash can around the yard and pick up trash
7. take the tractor and trailer around the yard and pick up stuff that needs to go down by the road...almost ready for a bulk trash pick up
8. Clean off the front porch and rearrange and make it look pretty
9. clean the house, do laundry and mop floors.
10. Daydream about seeing my boy on the 9th...he comes home from the Army for good
11. If I have anything left maybe I will go to sissys house and float in the pool.
