Cleaning and sorting room by room

Next week we are starting a HUGE clean and sort faze. We will be going room by room trying to pare down as much as possible. We are hoping our house sells and we will be that much closer to being able to move. Its so hard to do this so I am going to have to really be hard on myself and get rid of things I don't need. I know the basement is first on the list. We must purge big time. If I had a place to store things I would love to have a garage sale but I may just end up trying to sell things and giving the rest away.

Monday's to do list

1. plant more veggies and flower seeds. Jalapeno,ferengeek, cabbage,cucumber,sow pea, etc.

Building fence

Jeff and the girls are building fence today so the goats have more room to graze. It will help keep the cost of feed down. We had to start milking the goat I was trying to dry off because the other two were just not giving enough milk. She is cantankerous but gives a lot of milk. The last two times I milked her she didn't even kick. That's good because there for a while she was trying to kick sideways and get me in the head. I didn't care much for that. Maybe she will settle down now.

Jeff and I are both taking graduate courses with the online Bible college mentioned in my blogs I like list. I told Jeff I was putting my answers in a different color to make it easier for the professor to see them. He said dont write them in red because you wont be able to see all the red check marks. LOL he should take his show on the road, he is so funny. So just for that I will make this part of my post in red. LOL
