little sparrow mountain

Chicken lay fewer eggs, the dogs are not out as often and we lay around a bit more. Today ,for instance, I got up around 7am (that is sleeping in for me) I decorated the tree, took the dogs out and did some laundry. Looked up and it was 11am. Hamish is still with us...although last week was not good. Some special food and a bland diet he perked right back up. Christmas tree done for the moment Max....yes that is his tongue.

This might be ready for Christmas

Here we are at the final week of November.  Inside prepping for Thanksgiving. Turkey is defrosting and the lists are ready for the last items to be picked up on my way home Wednesday night. I am still fighting this crazy sinus infection....it is almost gone. Outside there are still leaves that need raking and things to be picked up. Last weekend we had a 15 hour power outage. A generator and plenty of wood thanks to Bill and light from candles and lanterns. Tonight a beautiful  pink sunset......these pictures cannot do it justice really!

Gardening is DONE..... with the exception of a few cabbage which will most likely be chicken food we are done. Bill has been canning up a storm. and I will be doing applesauce in the crock pot today.

Bill got a new chainsaw this year....a nice little Husky!
