and it is raining off and on

my violet's are blooming!!!!! there are two more that have buds on them, i am so excited so i had to post again to show you folks (i showed facebook)
and flicka, really for me lately, i HAVE been lazy.
now today i got the ducks out, and brought the ash bucket down (it's way too full for me to carry but i got it down there) i got a load of wood waiting for my second wind out front,........i'll bring that in shortly, then water and feed the chickens. i had to start a fire this morning.
i SHOULD throw some hand washables into soak and maybe after i do the dishes i will. but since you have read this blog for a while, you know that these are lighter days for me lately
all because i can't stop drawing......
hahahahaha
btw, i see a for sale sign or what looks like a for sale sign on jackass neighbor's house
woohoo!!!! FREE AT LAST

i realized this morning, we are starting to get everything we've ever asked for....... bernie's job is good and he's happy but tired
we are financially in a bit better place (but still have debt, which i hate and am trying to get rid of)
there are a couple of other things i think i would like, of course the farm, but deb in WA pointed out to me on the phone this morning, actually i do have a farm, a very small one
i would like a larger one with a bigger flatter garden, an orchard, and room for the sheep and goats (and a milk cow please) one zoned for roosters too
i need my van fixed too, as i love that vehicle......i can reach the peddels, i can see over the stearing wheel and i can get in and out of it easily....
i don't want a new van i want THAT van, fixed and painted
and a larger house with closets, not too much larger, AND A KITCHEN ... that is nice and efficient and works well.......and is pretty and has a greenhouse off it............ ok so make the next house 1/2 kitchen and 1/2 studio, put a bathroom on the studio side......... my woodstove in the center.......and a bedroom/closet wing. have a cold pantry on the kitchen side and a real old fashioned butlers pantry..... with a green house to grow my stuff over the winter and start the garden plants ( and we can eat in the greenhouse...no?)

doesn't that sounds HEAVENLY........???
although i do like my second story deck in the trees.........
well lookie at this
two posts today
all cause i wanted to show you all the violets
