| The nursery |
Now we're just easing through the rest of the winter months. It's a relatively mild season compared to the past two (and now that I've said that, it will come a blizzard - mark my words) which still gives us plenty of time to look around and think about what we want to accomplish this year. Which (as always) is a lot. :)
DIY Chickens
The incubator has arrived and is filled with chicks-in-progress. Based on a gestation period of 21 days we should expect our first arrivals around Jan 30th. Yep, one week from day which dawned on us in that eerie "oh no we've got so much to do before then" feeling over the past weekend. Fortunately we have all our supplies from the last brooder batch and just need to stock up on feed and bedding.
The Garage
At some point in between winter storms and animal jobs we need to finally move in and unpack that forest of boxes that have taken over the garage. Definitely not on the "fun things to do". This one will take a lot of motivation. And coffee.
The Barn
Speaking of unfun things, the barn is in the same shape as the garage. Miscellaneous boxes, buckets, animal cages, and leftovers from Cody's wildlife projects are taking up the spaces designated for animal stalls (which also need walls & gates). This project may spill over into 2013...
Knitting
The sock pattern is coming along nicely but I'm stumped on how to explain the toe construction. I also want to make it the base instruction for future designs. Hopefully that project will be wrapped up soon. Brady's hinting for a new Steelers cap. :)
Massie Creek Bluegrass
The website is finished (needs some tweaking but then again don't all websites). Visit us at massiecreekband.com. For bookings, you can contact Brady at (937) 371-7816 or bsmith712@yahoo.com.
Coming Up
Set up chicken brooder, finish sock pattern
