Ack! I couldn't figure out

Ack! I couldn't figure out which one to post on! LOL!

It actually tried to snow here on Friday! And was brrrrr, cold! But finally (knock on wood) it appears spring is here and hopefully will remain so. The lowest it gets all week is 36, and 68 is the lowest high.

Fairly unproductive weekend. The kid I had clean the chicken house only did half the job (and I only paid him for half. I don't pay by the hour, I pay by the job). So I still have 8 chickens living in my garage. DH decided to work cows on Saturday (branding, dehorning, immunizing, castrating). Taught dd9 to use the sewing machine. Did baking yesterday morning for a family gathering at an aunt/uncle's house in the afternoon. I guess the one thing I got accomplished was the kitchen clean before I went to bed.

This morning I got the kids up and off to school (and dealt with a nasty dd9-who-thinks-she-is-16). Went into the school to warn teachers about said child (and encouraged them that if she continued the attitude with them to send her straight to the principle). Helped DH set up a watertank and fix some fence to turn the branded and now weaned calves into (we can't sell them til the brands are at least 2 weeks old). Called the contractor to tell him it's a go on my kitchen remodel.

I hope to get some laundry done and clean bathrooms, but not sure if I will be able to (due to the stock tank taking most of the day to fill, don't know if I will have water in the house most of the day or not). Will probably spend much of the day doing bills/checkbook/bookkeeping chores instead. And any time Drew wants to go outside I'll spend tilling the garden area so I can plant May 1st. Tonight we have a 4-H meeting.
