Checking My List—Wednesday, October 22, 2014

Heading-outI let the dogs go with me to the other house!  I know, I know, I said Boomer couldn’t go anymore, but ….I just felt so sorry for him….those sad beagle eyes you know.

So off we went…then while I was there he had to come inside while I worked at painting the coat closet.  He didn’t mind, although Fuzzy said he preferred sitting outside on the step in the sunshine.

This house is almost where I want it to forget it for a spell, all I have to do is mop (!) then I’m done for a time.

Rose-of-fallI also took our ballets in to the court house…there—- we have voted!  YIPPEE!!

Now we just wait to see how the vote turns out.  I really like this mail in voting…no standing in line—get your ballet- think about what you want to see happen, color in the square…put everything back in the proper envelopes, sign and date the back, then either walk it in and put it in the voting box or mail it.  DONE!

Ending-of-the-day

Tomorrow I should finish up this houses’ to-do list and maybe get closer to finished INSIDE the other house.  I would really like to get the trim and the fences done before the weather turns bad.  I would also like to be done down there, before the corn harvest starts.  I looked back over my blog and we started the 5th of November last year.  That’s not to far off now.  Although, it depends on the moisture of the corn…one year we were clear to Christmas before we got done, not being able to start until after Thanksgiving.  I sure hope we don’t have another year like that!

With joy in my heart and a song on my lips–the list is shortening every day!

Your friend on a Western Colorado farm,

Linda

  1. Good Morning, Linda! Your header and photos are stunning today!!! Glad you are about to be done with the other house. That will be a relief, won’t it? I just knew you would make a big dent in your list of jobs yesterday….good work!

    I awoke to rain this morning–.2″. It’s so nice and fresh outside. I plan to vote tomorrow as will be out of pocket on voter’s Tuesday. Yes, it indeed will be interesting to see how it all works out!

    Take care….blessings!

  2. Beautiful days! Glad the other house is almost finished. Oregon has had mail-in ballots (only) for years and years — since way back before we retired, when we still lived and voted there. NOw, we vote absentee because we’re never in the state where we vote at election time. So I haven’t been to a polling place for decades and decades.
