It's been some time since I've been on, but no I haven't fallen off of the planet!!

We moved into the new place in December, and on Sunday we plowed the feild with an actual plow! This weekend I'll be out there raking up all the junk that got left behind and pulling out rocks, provided the wind dies down.

I've got a bunch of seeds started that will be ready to plant soon. On Saturday the girls and I will be making a scarecrow. We have a porch up now, I need to get a pic of it, it looks really nice.

Things are going well here now. I have a social network again and I am even making money watching a little boy during the day. He is only 10 months old and keeps me hopping so thats why I haven't been on in ages. The girls are growing like weeds, and are great little helpers!


Hal has moved up at his job and is almost making what he was before... In most ways he already is because it is for a company with a 401k and the best benefits around! He is getting into photography and really into capturing the Montana sunsets.

We also got a dog. He's awesome.


I thought you might like to see the inside of the place now that it is more than sheetrock. I am pretty sure the last time I posted pics of the place it was all unfinished exterior and sheet rock shots.

my cluttery kitchen


the kids play room


my little corner of the world


Thats all she wrote for now, but it's movin' right along! I'll post some shots of the garden once it starts doing it's thing, and I'll take a shot or two of the finished exterior with the porch and everything... and to those who remember how sad I was to let the old place go.. this garden is 3 times the size of the one I had in Washington, and that doesn't even count the greenhouse, trees and bushes that we'll be putting in next year!!










you can be oh so smart, or you can be oh so positive. I wasted a lot of time being smart I prefer being positive.

we go back and forth between that and a rhodesian ridgeback mix. He was a rescue and they didn't know, but his markings are both like a cur and a ridgeback.. he is more red like a ridgeback is instead of that golden color of many curs.. but he doesn't have a ridge.
