Winter Cold!

The weather seems cold, Well I am almost sold out of Wood and I need to cut about 4 more cord in the next two weeks. My dad claims he wants to buy all of it but won't pay as much for it, or come and cut it himself. Today I changed my add on craigs list to $110 per pick up load or 225$ for a full truck & trailer load delivered and add more for mileage depending on location. I am also trading some wood for some trailers if they are any good. I will look at them tomorrow.
Jen has been busy at work and she is on call again this weekend for Perham home care- she is real busy with ottertail county and Nations care link visits.
Grace is learning more each day. she is getting better at talking too, I think she could pronounce things better if she had teeth- she only has the two bottom front ones now.
The car business has been Booming for me in the last two weeks, so I don't have much time to write here.
I also sold my vintage whiskey barrel bar on craigs list too, Some lady is picking it up on Sat.
Any body need a $1000 car? too bad there arn't meny available.
I look forward to Thanksgiving, I just wish Drake & Sky were coming. I guess I'll have to wait till Christmas.
Enjoy the cold!!

Lots of Wood

I had Wed. off so I took Grace to daycare about 7:40 and then I started to cut and split wood. Tony came over about 10 and helped sort wood and the load my truck with wood then load dad's gray trailer for himself then he helped me split while I cut till about 12:30pm- i kept cutting till 3:30. I probably got 4-5 pick up loads done. I hope to get at it again on Sunday. i am selling it for $85 a pick up load you pick up. or I will negotiate delivery.
Jen had to work late last night so I went and got Grace about 4:30. We had chili for supper. I had steak for lunch.
Today has been busy - I'm trying to catch up with follow up from the salesman who left a couple weeks ago and I can see the end of the tunnel -- but I better get back to work-

the 8 Point BUCK

Well I finally got a nice buck- 8 points- small rack but big deer. Our hunting party had 7 deer by 9:30 am on opener. Then one more in the afternoon to make 8 total. The party included - MFD(dad) Tony, Andy, Amelia, John Doll and myself. Tony shot 3, Andy shot one, John shot 2, dad shot one and I got one. We will have plenty of venison this year.
We all had steak and chili for lunch and attempted to sit in our stands the rest of the day. It was 25 degrees with a wind of 20-35 mph. COLD! We skinned the deer right away Sat night and will cut them up Mon. I did not even go back out Sun. I guess everyone else did but I was happily sleeping.
on Sunday Jen Grace and I went to church at 9 am then made a egg bake for lunch- Tony and Andy stopped by to watch the Bears game. Ang even stopped for a while to give Tony his suit for a funeral Tues. Grace was shy but warmed up right before they all left. She can say nony which is supposed to be tony. She must be getting teeth she was fussy all night and woke up a lot and cryed for about a minute then back to sleep.
Audrey has to hunt next weekend so I guess everyone else will be out there too.
I have to bowl tonight so I won't be able to cut meat very long.

OH NO it's gonna SNOW

Yes that right snow is predicted, I got my grass seed down last night in the back yard, spread some straw on the hills so it won't wash away, I used less than half so I can re seed in spring again. - I had steak for supper, Jen went shopping so we may have fajitas tomorrow-
I had a fire call today in Frazee - Garage was burnt- the structure was saved. I had to go home and shower before returning to work. I had lunch at home and turned the roast pork up- It is in the crock pot - it should be ready by the time I get home!! Carrots potatoes onions and Green peppers, pork roast with french onion soup dry mix on top!! YUMMMM .
Sounds like it will snow a few inches by the weekend, should be good for hunting, I am gonna get the 4-wheeler bracket put on so it's ready for the plow blade, so I can easily attach it for plowing snow after deer hunting- or the way it sound maybe sooner-
Good luck with the weather everyone~!!

Welcome OBAMA -well kinda

Finally the elections are done- Frazee school district board members are elected, and new ideas will come-- Obama will be our next President- and every branch of government is now very liberal- so please-- please everyone out there- remember where and who you are today- The times are a changing and in 4 - 8 years from now we will see what great tax breaks us middle class people will get- the rich will no longer get all the breaks, at our environment will become and don't worry about a job- big brother will create one just for you!
I guess it's not all bad. It show u that EQUAL rights are finally here- (maybe gay people lose)
I am waiting to see the MN senate race results after the recount-
I see lake Park Audubon and Pelican rapids and Perham Levy's failed- Guess us middle class people can't afford any more taxes- better figure out a way to sock it to the rich folks--

I still need to get grass down in the back yard- It was raining when I got home last night- I may sneak away for an hour today to do that - bu we'll see. Grace loves stickers now- she got the I voted sticker and stuck it to everything!! She is quite the communicator she is starting to put a couple words together now- that's really exiting- she tells us when she is going potty so I think we are gonna start that this weekend too. What a big girl!! See you all later

thank god for DEER HUNTING SEASON

Well I got my gun sited in, 2 shots one 3 inches left of the target and one right on. Good enough. Talked to three people that hit deer either this morning or yesterday. Wow that makes me hungry. I got all my blaze orange ready. got a whole box and a half of bullets so I should be ready. I really need some meat this year. the last few years I didn't really want any, but now that I don't have free food ready at any time, I will be loving my venison sausage again! plus I forgot hoe damn good it is. I think I'm gonna get a ton of meat sticks this year. Jen loves them. we were out with in two months last year- 8 lbs worth.
Grace had a great Halloween! she was a bumble bee, she bussed all night. We went to Norseman motors, her daycare Jane & Tom Schmitz, then to perham to Grandma and Grandpa doll's then we were gonna go to aunt Amelia's but we couldn't get ahold of her so we got a Michelangelo's pizza and went to the grandma-pa #wicks- ate pizza saw a few trick or treaters and had a couple beers. Grace was up till 9:30 again!!
Saturday I had a huge list of things to do, While Jen worked, - we put child safety locks upstairs in the bathroom, took pictures of the Barrel bar to sell on craigslist. tilled the garden area, got hunting stuff ready, vacuumed the house, got grass seed, got gas, jen got hoem so we went to the doll farm to get the deer stand ready, and went got a movie to watch, went to KFC for supper- drive through- Watche Indiana Jones and some space aliens. (dumb!)
Sunday Jen worked in the morning so I made breakfast at 8 am, we went to church at 11 am.
I sited in the gun washed Jens car, got the shed cleaned for winter, picked up sticks and rocks in the new back yard, got ready for seeding!! cleaned up the outside area of hose too.
Today I got a new office at work- One much bigger- one of the other sales consultants quit-- so now I have to work every other Saturday until we hire another person! That sucks but I will have Wed. off so Jen and I will have the same day off. And Saturdays are only till 4 pm, but it still sucks a bit.
Well I gotto go for now-

Great weather

Well It finally got nice again, but for how long? I am glad the elections are only a week away, i can't wait! The adds are sickening. I've had another great week. the weather helps.. grace is getting funner as the days pass, she shows more of her personality every day. She looks for uncle Tony every time the door rings, likes to point at her cousins Drake, Skyler, Levi, and Billy and try to say their names. she calls every thing baby. She is finally acting like a little girl and feeds her dolls with a bottle then burps them, she gets more violent the more tired she gets but it's still cute.
I hope I can find some time to cut wood this weekend, site my gun in and get my deer stand at MFD's ready. i am not looking forward to hunting, only getting meat and then going home. Darrell really wants me to hunt with them but, i think my brothers and Dad would really miss me. Plus I think I may have to work the second weekend Saturday anyway. We'll see.
Have a great day.
