~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[dill]

I'm taking on the windows today. It's a daunting task and it will take me a few days but it needs doing. This old farmhouse has nice, big windows and they can be tilted inward to clean the exterior without having to get ladders to work on the exterior. It's doable but I don't move as quickly as I used to, so it will simply proceed at my pace. Mr. D will pitch in as well, but this morning he has a doc appointment, so I'll get underway on my own at first.

Feeling good and looking forward to some sparkling clean views soon!

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

Maybe you'll both change your mind in the spring about selling the 5th wheel Ginger lol, but for some reason I don't think so.

Don't work too hard on those windows dill, take your time and spread it over a couple of days if need be.

Good Morning Cafe. Cowboy, I thought the cabin was for hunting. My Bad. It’s so cute and I am sure Adam and Darcie will absolutely love it. All the work you have put into it will really pay off. Being so close to the lake is such a plus too. Dill, good luck with those windows. That is a hard job for sure. Hope everyone has a good day. We are finally supposed to get some rain this afternoon. We need it. 24 more for us all please!

[Ginger999]

I'll take another day!

[Jude58]

Dill, you have more ambition than I do. Cleaning windows is not my favorite thing to do but sometimes you can't put put it off any longer.

Ginger, I saw your post on FB with pics of baby sloths. I adore sloths, they are so adorable and gentle.

Looking forward to another 24 hours of freedom...

We finally got back in the field yesterday afternoon, sounds like we'll get a few days of combining in before Friday when it's supposed to rain again. At this rate we won't get finished till mid-October lol.

[dill]

Jude, I had to smile at your comment that I am more ambitious than you. That was funny coming from the thread's canning Queen! LOL But thank you for the compliment. I am making good progress. I got more done yesterday than I had planned and the windows looked so much better it helped motivate me to continue.

Hope you get a lot done, Cowboy. I sure do wish we could have a smidge of your rain...

Mr. D has decided to make a stab at patching our pond since the weather has been so dry and the water lever is at the lowest it's ever been. It's guess work as to where the leak is but he is going to go with his gut and is hiring a guy to excavate a portion of it and lay down a liner. Fingers crossed that it fixes the problem, but we won't know until we get rain and snow enough to refill it.

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

Made it through surgery just fine. Not too much more pain than I was already dealing with. No need for opiods yet so I'm hoping that continues. I hate those drugs.

Dill, do you hire out? I could use mine washed!

It's a beautiful morning sitting here in my chair. Fall is definitely in the air. I'll gladly take another!

[Jude58]

Ginger, so glad that your surgery went without a hitch and hope that you recover quickly. You are wise to stay away from the opiods if you can. Too many people have become addicted to them without meaning to, and it's a huge problem. Love the view from your window!

24 more for all of us please...

[dill]

Ginger, that is wonderful news! And I second what Jude says about staying away from opioids. I hope you don't have too much pain and that Ibuprophin (sp?) or acetaminophen can take care of any that you do have. Thanks for sharing your view with us. Loved the pic.

24 more please and thank you.

Glad the surgery went well Ginger, and hopefully you'll be as good as new when you recover. Always love pics of the views from your place!


Tell Mr D good luck with the pond patching dill, we'll need lots of snow here as well to refill the dugouts back to a comfortable level.

We should hit the halfway mark on harvest if we get a good day in today. a couple of days of wheat to go, then 3 fields of oats, then start on the 2900 acres of canola.

Good morning Cafe. Ginger, so glad your surgery went well. Your beautiful view certainly adds to dealing with your recovery! Hope everyone has a great day. 24 more please and thank you.
