Happy Mother's Day

From Life in a Snow Globe, 1 weeks ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? It's Mother's Day again, and we did the usual. Nothing. I'm not cooking dinner, though. Tim is not a happy camper. Our brand new spiffy rototiller we bought April 7th died. It's going back to where we bought it from tomorrow after Tim gets home from work and they had better fix it. ?? Somethings were planted yesterday and it was the plan to plant the rest of the root crops today, but that's not happening. ?? Poor Albert had to be separated from the girls. They... Read more

Are You Sure It's Really Spring'

From Life in a Snow Globe, 2 weeks ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? Well, it's May 11, and our low this morning was 25. It is suppose to be our last really cold morning with lows from now on in the 40's and above. We plan on planting the garden this weekend like so many other people up here, so hopefully this is true. Monday is suppose to be 85 which is really much hotter than normal, so I guess I'll get started on sewing my summer clothes. We're normally in the mid to upper 60's this time of year. ?? Finally, after years of cracked sore... Read more

Just Kidding

From Life in a Snow Globe, 3 weeks ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? Well, spring is finally in the air, every once in a while for an hour or 2 anyway. The last couple of years we have had visiting sheep in the yard, but this year is different. All those cute little kids, the 4 legged kind from behind us, have visited. It's a really good thing we haven't planted the garden yet and they didn't find the berries or the fruit trees. The 6 little visitors really liked eating the pine trees. I still am a goat person, but they are more work than I want to... Read more

Nice Weather Equals A New Rototiller

From Life in a Snow Globe, 1 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? The weather has been nice the last few days for a change so it was time to start tilling up the garden. Unfortunately, the engine on our trusty 25 year old Troy Bilt Econo horse tiller went out with a big, loud bang last year. We really like having a garden, so a new tiller it was. We did debate about renting one, but decided in the long run, we'd just rather have our own. ?? Before we bought the new tiller, Tim had ordered an engine that was suppose to fit the old... Read more

?? Well, spring is here and it snowed 6 inches over night.?I guess the groundhog was right., 6 more weeks of winter.?The wind is blowing and the snow is still falling, off and on. According to weather maps, places where it's usually still cold are warmer than?we are?up here. ?? The chicks out grew their box and are now in a bigger box. Actually, they are in a big plastic box because I have smart chickens. They were working on a jail break. I guess it was... Read more

A New Computer And I still Can't Hit The Right Keys Or Spell

From Life in a Snow Globe, 2 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

??? I bought a new laptop last weekend. It's pretty nice and I'm positive it's more computer than I need. Tim has inherited my old 6 year old one. Do you remember the old days when you actually got a paper?owners manual' I miss those days. I haven't even found an owners manual for this computer on the computer. I guess since it's 2012, everyone figures you should know what you're doing by now. Guess again. I guess I just have to waste more time on it trying to figure it out.... Read more

Winter Finally Came

From Life in a Snow Globe, 2 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? Yes, winter finally made it. It has snowed off and on since Saturday and we have about 13 inches of snow with last nights snow added to it. I know, 13 inches isn't really all that much, but it's the most we've had on the ground at one time this winter. We had a low of 7 yesterday morning which is the coldest we've been this winter, as well. ?? With the snow, comes less mud right now. We still have all that mud under the snow, but it's frozen for most of the day. It's so... Read more

You Know It's A Bad Sign When...

From Life in a Snow Globe, 3 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? You know it's a bad sign when you go to Walmart and as soon as you're in the store, there a many, many displays of cold and flu medicines. That's what we went to Walmart for, and so did every other sick person in Spokane and the surrounding areas. Let's all just spread more germs. ?? When we made it to the cough and cold/flu isle, people were so rude and pushy. They just had to get in the way and grab their medicine, while I stood there and tried to figure out what... Read more

From This, To This

From Life in a Snow Globe, 3 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

? ? We have finally had snow. It comes and it goes, but at least it's snow. It was snowing really hard in this picture. After the heavy snowfall, we had this. It was really pretty. We had about 10" of fine, powdery snow on top of a sheet of ice from the last snow then rain. The weather can't seem to make up it's mind. Hmm snow, rain, snow, I wonder what I'll do today' ?? ?? ? Well, it's rained again and this is what our front yard looks like. A nice sheet of ice with standing water on it.... Read more

Oh, The Joys Of Homeownership

From Life in a Snow Globe, 3 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

?? Yesterday, we had a plumbing problem and I hope not to have it again. Backed up sewage in the walk in shower. Yuck!!! Our septic tank is either full, or it's just not draining because the ground happens to frozen rock hard. It's much cheaper if the ground is frozen than if the tank is full because it will cost $300.00 to get it pumped. ?? We have had rain, snow and frozen rain lately. The yard is a slippery mess. I think it's a good thing I can't go out now. ??... Read more
