School & around the house stuff

Days like today make starting school in July so worth it! The kids are beginning to finish subjects one right after another.Then the ones they still have more to work on they are doubling\tripling\quadrupling up on. They should all be done with most everything by the end of next week if not before.
I told them this morning that they all know what they need to finish that I'm not staying on to of them if they want to boogie & get it done then do it, otherwise the work is there until they finish...but to keep in mind the sooner they get done to sooner they can have a break of no lessons for a while.So they boogied this morning & I really think they are all gonna be done real soon.
This evening we worked on the chicken coop & the garden....the welding is ALL DONE on what we can do. It still needs a roof but a tarp will have to do until we can get some more $ for roofing supplies. So the next trip into town I will buy a big tarp to go over the coop & tomorrow we will put chickens & guineas in there new home!! Next we have to build their "home" (laying) part of it, until we can get that done they will have to use barrels.
We have been spreading straw & hay out in the garden to help detour the weeds...so far so good....we need to peel off more off the last big round bale we have tomorrow & finish it up.
We have corn, onions, tomatoes, beans, zucchini & squash all coming up\growing very nicely!
We are taking turns with the goats letting them out to graze on leashes & cable.lol...that darn Buddy(our oldest male) he is such a character..he was more interested in what WE were doing tonight than eating the weeds..it was of no use at all letting him out to graze he did more watching of us than eating weeds....he just sat there or laid there watching us...and we had him in a area I REALLY wanted "mowed down"...oh well somebody else will get a try at it tomorrow.
I am so enjoying my new clothes line...I'm so easy to please! |
