More from my mind

I've noticed the big thing with blogs is "Wordless Wednesdays". What the (insert word)? The whole purpose of a blog is to tell people about things. If it's wordless why bother? I certainly could not survive one of those let alone every week. So don't expect any of those here.

I feel better after that rant. Sometimes you just have to let it out, hence the craziness of "Wordless Wednesdays".

It's been awhile since my latest up date on Mr. Garden. There are reasons behind this, I havn't done anything to it. Oops! But I have an excuse, we have been working with the pigs for the Fair. And yesterday was just another day down on the farm. HogFarmer was at work and Kid #1 was mowing, not sure where Kid #3 was and Kid #2 was working on his flower project. I look up and see a pig run out the barn do a 180 and go back in. It took me a second to realize what in the world was going on. He has escaped and me being the adult in charge (no laughing) I must fix it. Kid#2 and I go running to the barn and get Poppy into the pasture for the time being. I look into the pen to see how he got out and I see 2 pigs. Houston we have a problem! We have 6 pigs. Where in the world are the other ones? One day, the stupid pigs couldn't wait one more day and they would be at the Fair.

After playing detective and carpenter the the piggly wigglies were back in the pen with the pen fixed. What a day? And the fun has just begun! I think it will be easier to list today's upcoming activities:

  • Load up big truck with half the house and barn.
  • Take it to Fair and set it up in the small cubicle like space.
  • Set up the pens for the piggly wigglies.
  • Disagree with HogFarmer on several things. This happens quite a bit.
  • Get 6 pigs out of their home, thru the barn and into the trailer. Did I mention that they do not like to go up or down anything? See the trouble coming.
  • Get them out of the trailer and put them in two pens.

And that is just today. But picture if you will leaving home with your family of 6 who have all lived in the same room. Then go to a strange place with 100's of other piggly wigglies and put you in 2 rooms. Then every person in the county comes and watches you and you must take a shower every day to look good. Don't forget the haircut and did I mention all of the people staring at you!

Well, I must go argue I mean discuss things with hogFarmer and get ready to head to the Fair.
