Jacked up shit

The house page is jacked up half the post on it disappeared and all the pics went small and I can't change it and make it stick friggin this is why I hate the net some times

What about that....

I have been looking online just about two weeks now and done LOTS of research on vacations and vacation ideas. Well, I found something very interesting. Home- Schoolers and their parents teaching them get MAJOR DISCOUNTS in almost all Historical Museums, (Including Williamsburg VA) science and nature museums, and surrounding hotels. Aquariums are starting to give these discounts as well. I just find this .. awesome. Encouraging people to teach their kids the correct history, science, math, and geography is a must in this country. Chris posted not to long ago on schools teaching our kids fictional crap because it sounds nicer. Well crap sounds nicer than shit but it still has the same damn meaning. But, my point being, I think that Places like the Live Indian Villages in TN and VA, the Historic Williamsburg VA, Yellowstone National Park, and many other places doing this is a GOOD thing. I give them prop's for trying.

Holy Shit now they are attacking great american books

On 60 minutes tonight I saw a thing over the term nigger in the book Huckleberry Fin.  Some teachers will not say it, some schools have band the book others are buying edited versions.  Boy what a way to shit on Mark Twain, freedom of press and free speech.

They way that I was raised nigger could be good or bad.  Mostly just meant you was black.  Working like a nigger was a good thing cause God knows that slaves worked.  But on the other hand it was used to refer to the bad of any race.  The part that gets me is that this book is an a American icon a truly great piece of American lit. and they want to change it all because it may offend some one.  Well folks grow some skin while you are growing some balls and the world would be better off.

Hey guys sorry it has been awhile since I updated anything on here but just been doing so much that I have been to tired to even get online when I come in.  Anyway went to a mushroom growing workshop yesterday.  I learned a good amount and have 3 shiitake logs and like 4 golden oyster logs working and should get a couple of shrooms this fall but most will be around next year.  Gonna get some portabellas going before to long also.

I am getting a lot of feed back that people are not able to follow me right now and I am not sure why.  I will be looking into it and trying to figure out what the hell is going on. 

awesome week....

we have had an awesome week this week. Several feet of lumber have been cut, footer dug, kids started cleaning out the loose dirt, one of the pups went to their new home, and took a trip to Lexington with the kids to Chucky Cheese for their reward for doing all their chores this month. I am very happy. And am soo blessed to have such an awesome hard working husband and wonderful kids.

Tired As Hell

Well it is 12:18 and I just got off the excuvator.  The footer is dug the cellar is dug and where I but hay out for the horse is as clean as it gets without an actual dozer or hours with a shovel.  Gotta few more thing gonna hit in the morning yippy yippy.

march 12, 2011 best day ever.

Happy birthday to my darlin hubby!! He is so wonderful!! He spent today digging our foundation and even found time to dig a place for our cellar as well.! I feel like I am in a dream and if some one pinches me to wake me , I promise I will slap you! lol. I am just so happy and so grateful. I feel bad though that he has done most of the harder labor lately alone... I even feel a little guilty. Its not that I havent wanted to do it, just been a little preoccupied with other things ie: our 6 puppies.... and I'm not one to go working in the freezing rain and mud either. I HATE COLD AND WET WEATHER. Not to mention that some of those stones are as big as our children. But I know that Chris knows that if he would have asked me at any given time to help him, I would have.... without question. I want this as bad as he does. We are in this together.

Sooo Excited.... march 11, 2011

So the darling hubby is gonna start digging our foundation tomorrow. I can NOT express how Happy I am!! We have worked soo hard for so long to get this far. Our blood, sweat, and tears have gone into this homestead of ours and with every drop, and every tear... makes me that much happier and even Prouder. we are so close now that we can just taste the finished product so to speak. I have a very hard working man. Makes me proud to be called his wife. :) I hope to have some pics posted of our recent progress very soon.

Either I am really wanting my house done or I am crazy hell maybe both.  The rock that I hauled for the house today was done so in a 35 degree rain.  Hauled 4 loads a lot of which I had to go over with the hammer just so that I could get them in the truck.  Wore the all but 2 fingers out on my gloves so hands got wet and cold not to mention the wet sand basicly grinding down the ends of my fingers.  Plus having to stand in mud while I done everything.  Shh was not a good day on other notes either of which I wish not to get into.  I am tired and going to bed.

After 12 years I finally get my book

With my wonderful 27th birthday coming up Holly got me the SPG Lubricants BPCR (Black Powder Cartridge Rifle) reloading book.  I have been wanting it for like 12 years now.  It is such a good book.  Well to me it is anyway.  Now if I could just come up with 2900 bucks to get the rifle I want I would be in heaven.  Yeah I know that is a lot for a rifle that shoots a 5 dollar a shot bullet.  But it is one of the few rifles that will drop a bull bison straight down at over a 1000 yards.  Talk about a trip just imagine holding that much power in your hands

Wife hooked me good

Holly has been wanting a Perchron weanling for a while now.  She found some that has one that she wants and now on top of everything else that I have to do I have to saw 2500bdf of lumber so she can trade it to this horse.  Like I didn't already have enough to do right.  But it will be ok since she really wants it and it will be able to do some work even though she is kinda not liking that fact I dont care to do it.  I just hope that it turns into what she wants it to be.  That will take us up to 5 head of horse plus a jackass 2 cows and 2 sheep.  Lota damn hay to feed all that.  But on the upside one cow is headed to freezer soon and so is one of the sheeps.  Nothing like knowing your food on a personal level. LOL.
