Back to Day One


It has been awhile I know I just haven't felt like writing been in a funk for a bit but hoping I am coming out of it. The summer is here and I have been sick with heatstroke 3 times already, makes me so frustrated because I feel so good out in the sun but every year I get sick because I stay out to long and then I have to pay for it for a week, but let's hope I have learned my lesson for the rest of summer hahahahaha probably not. It's been a mix of emotions this spring for me, there is a very bad rabbit virus going around so I have had to keep my two boys in the house, I hate that they are inside but I am also to scared to take a chance with them going out. I phoned my vet to see if they will bring in the vaccine for them and they won't, so if I want them to have the shot I have to take them to the other vet and they will charge me about $250.00 because they both have to have a health check first, well I can't afford to pay that so for the time being they will stay in the house, I did make them a big playpen that they like and I am in the process of putting another floor. We had a couple losses my female dove passed away and the next day my last finch also passed, I had moved the doves outside for the summer and after she passed my two boy doves stopped cooing, after 3 days of not hearing them I took them back into the house to be with the rabbit's and my lovebird and by the next afternoon they started to sing again so I guess they didn't want to be out there alone, usually the rabbit's are with them, so everyone is in the house and so far it's fine I let them all out almost every day as long as the cat is not in the room. I have started to take apart the outside barn I have decided to make it smaller and move it to the back of the yard so I can put in a garden were the barn is right now, they don't need such a huge cage anymore with just the two of them plus they have the run of the yard all day, that is if they get to even go out at all this year. tomorrow I  will take some pictures of the process, I have already took all the toy's and bowls and bins out and removed the tarp from the roof so tomorrow I will be removing the floor and the roof, then I have to cut the boards and move the front back about half the size and then move the cage and put the roof and floor back in, that is going to be a big job for sure. Well it is midnight and I need to get some sleep so I can get to work early in the morning, I will try and post the pictures tomorrow....

Such is life

Hello long time no see, I have been so busy lol okay I have been not so busy just been hard to think let alone write but the sun is out and I am starting to feel better, mood is getting lighter and I can't be happier. This weekend was our Co-op's spring cleanup, I am so sore it's not even funny, spent 6 1/2 hours doing yard work on sat and will take me 3-4 days to get over it, my poor hands are so swollen I can hardly use them, good thing I only use three fingers to type hahahahaha. I worked on my garden for three days the week before it is looking great but man did I over do it, I still have more to do but thank goodness it is raining for the next few days so I can take a break. We had a wonderful visit with my brother and sister inlaw the other day, they came with a van full of stuff for me to have so much clothes again I am still going through it all, they spoil me so much I am  so grateful for everything they do for us, hubby even got some shirts and shorts and a couple really nice jackets. Most of the rest is stuff to pass on to others and a lot I will use for sure, some very beautiful garden angels that hubby won't let me put out he want's them to get cleaned and put on our shelf in the house so they don't get wrecked. Every day I go through a pile and sort and put where it belongs it's like Christmas in April lol. Well this is about all I can type today hands are getting sore but think I will be back writing more again I have missed it and now that I am having more good days then bad I will have something to write, hope all is well with you......✋✋✋

Damn Snow

I am so fricken mad, it's still snowing, to be honest I know there is so much more to come before the end of this season but as hard as I try everytime it stars up again all I can do is cry. This winter has been not bad really my moods have stayed fairly good oh sure had some nad days but managed to pick myself up again but I am at my wits end I think, I am trying really I am, pushing and pushing through till spring but today I had enough and my temper got the best of me. The stupid thing is I can look out my back door and it looks so pretty and wonderful and then if I look out my front door I hate it cause that is were our car is, the driveway and the main road and it just makes me feel so angry because it means I am stuck at home in the house again till it clears up and I am so sick of not being able to drive even to the dollar store lol. Tonight I am sitting here watching a show and had to turn it all off cause I don't feel like enjoying myself when all I want to do is get out in my yard, clean it up, get ready for the spring but then it goes and snows more. Tomorrow I am going to see if I can start to declutter my office and get rid of some stuff, maybe if I pretend that spring is coming I will keep my moods going but it's going to take a lot to fool myself cause I can feel myself already seeping down into a bad mood but tomorrow is another day as they say, I just keep saying to myself, just one more month just hang on for another month, I know I will get through it, I have no choice, but sure would be nice if  winter said goodbye till next winter. I think what is making it hard now is all the animals want out, they are sick of being in the house also, so I feel bad for them, so darn it bring on the spring it couldn't come fast enough for all of us.....
