Finishing coffee. Ton of chores today. Hopefully I'll stick to the list and make a dent. Going to 75 today 🥵. No new lambs so far. Two wide loads, another looking a bit broad abeam with a start of a bag, and another possible. That would cover all that didn't lamb in the fall. Should probably add order ear tags to that do-it list.

I've not been here for a few days. Hubs and I took off in our new to us Class A coach. The first three days were miserable. Due to: FOG, Anger, Frustration, bad dogs, poor Calif roads, TV broke, me not savy about many internet things, more Anger and bickering....

Like BlueSky said, cue lots of bad language. But every day is a new day, and I'll keep on keeping on.

Jan: I'm going to pick up that DD from Florida when she comes back in early Feb. Why pay UBER almost $100 for a ride, when its only 20 min from my house to the Portland Airport? Nothing goes to her, as he left everything, verbally, to his two DD's. Kay will be OK, tho. Its her 3rd marriage and his second. Both were widowed before, and knew each other since childhood. Sad that Dick din't have a will - so it all goes thru probate. He's also a tool hoarder - it will take a couple of weekends for an estate sale company to get two barns full of stuff sold off.

RR: My 95 yr old Mother and her second husband have a rock solid A & B Trust. Pages and pages of details. He died in 2010. B trust is now non revocable. For 15 years, all beneficiaries to the B trust get a yearly accounting. Any bene can contest only the last 2 years on record. In December, one of my siblings, who is not a bene of Trust B, got a nasty threatening letter from Mother's second husband's son. Threatening that Mother is stripping away "his" and his sister's inheritance. Shut up dude. Its locked down tight. There is nothing funny going on. Mother isn't even required by law to send the yearly accounting, but the lawyer suggested it and so it goes. Go f off, you convicted felon (peeping with a camera at a roommate in his home).

We're heading to Phoenix tomorrow, so hubs can go to the Barrett Jackson Auto show, with an old buddy of his. I get to sit around the camp, without hubs, while he goes to the show one day, and then golfs the next day. I've got the two dogs and good books to read. Getting away doing something fun will be good for my husband.

I really hope the trip smooths out and things start going really well and you can start to enjoy the trip.
Wow. That's horrible. I'm glad everything is so set in stone there's no way trouble can happen from greed. The more stories I hear the more I'm just shocked in people. Sure making me look at trusts etc differently.

@farmerjan How are you feeling? :hugs
About the same, it takes alot to go to the barn, and to water/feed the chickens. Cancelled all the farm testing this week.

DS has been feeling bad, he went to his dr today, and has a serious sinus infection, and something else... they put him on amoxicillin with something else, and bentonate ? spelling... it is to stop coughing... I have that... although he said he feels like he is out of "wind" they said his lungs are clear... so it is not just me... he has been fighting it also... I just have had it longer...
