Wow. I guess I need to be more consistent with my updates. I have a had a couple of requests because I haven't updated too much.
The horses are fine. Smokey and Abner are doing well. Tommy didn't need a vet appointment as he trotted out of the barn the last couple of days with no signs of lameness at all. His hoof still looks the same, so don't know what is going on there.
The chickens are slacking off. We were getting between 5 and 6 eggs a day from 6 chickens, now we are only getting 4. We ordered 6 turkeys for this year. Hopefully we will be able to eat more than the fox did. We split the two last year.
Trying to support my horse habit with my new business. Well, the crocheting is not new - been doing that for a very long time. Selling the crocheting to feed my horses and animals is new. Check out my web site. www.TheHappyHookerVt.com I donate 15% of my sales to rescues. I have featured a couple of them on the blog in the past. You can specify or not. A donation is made anyways.
I have sold 4 scarves to date... have a few new afghans I'm posting later today. It is going to take a while to build. Right now I have more invested in yarn than I have sewn, so it's in it's baby steps. Please feel free to forward the information on to anyone you know might be interested.
Hope you all are staying warm. Can't wait for super bowl tonight. Don't care about the football. Just know that I'm going to have my busy husband home for a few hours to visit with while he watches the game and eats the goodies I'll make for him.
Yesterday we went on a date - just the two of us - to watch the women's hockey at Dartmouth. They won 4 to 2. It was their seniors game as their last 3 games are away... It was fun and we realized we had achieved another milestone. Emma is now 16 :( and is going to be driving herself as soon as she gets her 4 hours of driving time with her driver's ed teacher. We will be free - no pick ups from practice or going to the store or friends houses. Ashley is 20 and soon to be on her own. MJ is 18 and a senior and is moving forward in her life. We are almost at the empty nest stage and it's wonderful to know that Mike and I still like to spend time together and have fun doing things together.
Hope you all stay warm and those of you down south can dig out from the snow that I didn't miss for a second!
