Hubby tends to take over blogging responsibilities during the weekend by hijacking the laptop so we forgot to mention a few things as we randomly posted blogs yesterday. Saturday was a pretty good day for us. We went to IKEA in the morning and finally managed to get...
First real rain = more stuff to fix
So, today we had our first real rain since moving in and it seems that we need to give a bit of attention to our gutter system. The previous owner has recently replaced the old plastic gutters with copper ones after some hail damage, but it seems like we need to do a...
We have a farm……we have a barn…
Even though we have been living here for a few weeks now, and have been working on the farm since August, it still hits us every once in a while: "Hey, this is our farm." This weekend it has been particularly often that we are standing around and once again we...
The next major renovations
Here is a list of the next major projects we intend to take on. It's basically also in order of the timeline we aim to tackle them in. Note that these are only the ones we want to do ourselves. Other things we need Macky for, but those are the subject of another list....
We love this place
Here are some pictures we took this morning while taking Doggo for a walk. Even though it's raining and its still pretty miserable outside it's a pleasure to be on the farm and in the area around it. It'a little muddy once we get out of town, but you can't beat the...
It’s all getting cleaned out
Robert came by today, as promised, to retrieve the rest of the contractor's tools, spare building materials and other left-over junk. Thank goodness we still have the trash container here because these guys have made a major portion of trash themselves. I'm not even...
The Great Kitty Exploration
Today is the first time since we've lived here that our cats are getting the opportunity to explore the place. While we had contractors coming and going, we couldn't let them roam free because the cats were sure to escape which would be a huge problem. Plus the...
The first shower experience
So, home from work I just can't help myself but telling you all about the shower I took this morning. It was fantastic, warm, soothing and just altogether great. We've been living on the farm for 2.5 weeks now and every day showering was just a nightmare. The heater...
The bathroom is finally ready for use
At about 6:30 pm yesterday, Macky and Robert finished up the bathroom. I was quite ready for them to get out of here but also happy that they were taking the time to get everything done with now so they wouldn't need to come back today to finish things up (although...
We got a lot done today
It was a very productive day for us today. Aside from the things we got accomplished in the morning, we also knocked a lot of tasks off our to-do list during the rest of the day.Hubby got up on the roof again to try to hook up the satellite dish. We went about it a...
