A day on the farm

Monday August 6

The heat index today was well over a 100. The weather man is saying that as the week goes on the temp will be over a 100 with the heat index going up to 110.  I have been trying to get the outside work done very early in the mornings and late in the afternoons. I don't remember it ever getting this stuffy before. Maybe it is because I am getting older. 

Today is my baby sister's b-day. She is 32. I have been working on some outdoor pillows for her. I make all my gifts and some people really like homemade things then you have those who rather you spend money. Personally, the homemade means more to me than anything store bought. They put their heart and soul into it.

I need to load up two goats and take them back to the girls that show for me. I brought them home with me Saturday after the show. I gave them the cd&t shot. So , now they won't need another one until they turn a year old. I could've took them home yesterday but I didn't want to stress them out too bad. We have finally gotten them gaining and I didn't want them to lose any.

I hope that each and every one of you have a blessed day.

Hello Laura!

Well, I am still picking beans! Half a bushel today. I think I may freeze some this time and use them later in soups. The heat and humidity is returning today. I finished picking just before the sun came back out.
Goodness, I hope it cools down for you! Whew! I could not handle that heat!
The gift you are making for your sister sounds devine! I prefer homemade gifts too! What other things do you make?
Have a wonderful day!
