Coffee anyone ?

[Baymule]

Watching Sheep TV. DH finally gave the ok to let them out in the yard, it’s planted in clovers and he likes the pretty blooms. The blooms are dying back, so it’s sheep time. They are belly deep and chomping away. All I need now is a glass of iced coffee... but I’d have to go in the house and get it.....

Yep all -- it is NOT enough sleep. But some days it happens. Most often I do get 6-8 and if I am home, a short catnap


Today I found both hens on the egg in the feed tub They both growled at ME, otherwise, seemed ok with each other. I left them to it.

We had a big, bad storm in our area today. It happens, I went work after chores, so glad all I seem to have had was wind & heavy (!!) rain. All had shelter, so napped a lot I bet.

@Baymule, I've been looking for one of those, too. No tiller repair guys near but, I'm hopeful! Once the garden is in and growing, I'd rather run that than hoe all day! Had one about 30 yrs ago. Believe I wore it out. The search is on. I check every day on CL. It will happen! Just can't maneuver the big pull behind and mower when there's only a small area to work. Does great to start tho Haven't hooked it up since I bought another mower last week. Had too much yard to cut first. Ahhh...another job. Need that

I'm heading to bed! Sweet Dreams to all!

@Mini Horses you need more rest that that! Yesterday we ran errands, starting with going to the other side of Canton to get a mini tiller. I've been looking at them, they start about $300 and up. Found this one for $30. It hasn't been run in 2 years. We took it straight to our friend, Robert. he's going to put new fuel lines on it, clean the carburator and all that good stuff. Then he gets to use it too.

I've found the 2 cycle mini tillers to be 'less than impressive'. I've had 2 and gave them both away. The ring and pinion or brass worm gear down on the bottom end are the weak points. Hopefully they have improved in the last 6-7 years.

This one is a 4 cycle. Our neighbor is going to put a new carburetor and fuel lines on it, the kits are $15, cheap enough. It's not like I'm going to dog it to death, it will do what I want it to.

Will probably work much better in your sand than mine did in the clay I have.

Coffee is on. Highs mid 40s.... baseball practice then softball games.... looks like softball might get rained out though.

Mid 40s ahh no thanks I LL keep my heat. Our high is 85 already I need to finshf working in my garden today and get some plants planted and replant some seeds between a rabbit escape artist and the chick(teens) dust bathing where the are not wanted some of my seeds died or didn't come up I pretty sure the chicks were eating my seeds so it time to clip wing and hope they can no longer squeeze through the fence. also have house work to do today as well. I be baking some bread today and keep thinking about a cake so that might happen as well.i could really use some coffee but the coffee maker broke as did the pot so we be going to the store soon.

You can boil coffee in a pot. Toss in a few cubes of ice to settle the grounds. It’s not bad.

 

[Jesusfreak101]

That's is neat .Have to try that and added science experiment woohoo lol
