IT TOOK ME AWHILE TO GO THRU MOST OF THE PICS DEB,,

DO YA'LL HAVE A FEW MAIDS TO CLEAN THE PRESIDENTIAL MANSION?

LOL NOPE NO MAIDS. THAT'S PAULINE AND MY JOB FOR MOST OF IT, BUT EVERYONE LIVING THERE WILL HAVE TO HELP US OUT BY PICKING UP AFTER THEMSELVES. I THOUGHT I HAD PICTURES OF THE APPARTMENT OVER THE BARN BUT I COULDN'T FIND ANY.

GLAD TO HEAR THE GOOD NEWS. I TOOK A QUICK LOOK AT THE PICTURES..LOVE THE HOUSE

TRIED TO MAKE A COMMENT UNDER PICS BUT DS WLDNT ALLOW ME TO RIGHT NOW. MAN THATS A HUGE HOUSE. DID THEY TELL YOU HOW MUCH UTILITYS RUN A MONTH T HERE. AWESOME DEB I AM SO GLAD YOU GOT IT.

WILL THEY BE LEAVING ANY FURNITURE AROUND???? CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS DECORATED FOR CHRISTMAS.

ALL THE KITCHEN APLIENCES ARE STAYING WICH IS AWESOME BECAUSE THERE ARE FOUR OF THEM AND THERE IS NO WAY WE COULD COME UP WITH THAT MANY APLIENCES. UNFORTUNATELY NONE OF THE OTHER FURNITURE WAS LEFT BEHIND. WE HAVE TO PUT OUR OWN CRAPPY STUFF IN THERE, BUT WE'LL DO OUR BEST TO DO THE HOUSE JUSTICE WITH WHAT WE HAVE.

WHEN DO YOU MOVE IN

SHE IS MOVED IN NOW.

`YES DEB WITH A HOUSE THAT SIZE YOU SHLDNT NEED TO GO OUT FOR EXERCISE JUST TAKE A WALK AROUND THE HOUSE

SORRY I'VE BEEN MIA FOR SO LONG. GETTING THE INTERNET SWITCHED OVER TO THE NEW PLACE TOOK A WHILE. THE POOR DUDE THAT CAME OVER TO DO IT HAS A FEAR OF HIGHTS, AND HAD TO GET UP ON THE ROOF TO INSTALL IT. HIS LADDER WASN'T LONG ENOUGH SO HE HAD TO GO BACK TO THE OFFICE TO GET A LONGER ONE. WHEN HE CAME BACK HE HAD SOMEONE WITH HIM TO HELP.

WHEN THE JOB WAS DONE AND HE WENT TO CLIMB DOWN HE SLIPPED AND NEARLY FELL OFF THE ROOF. IF IT WEREN'T FOR THE LITTLE DECORATION RAILING UP THERE HE WOULD HAVE HIT THE GROUND. INSTEAD HE CAUGHT HIMSELF ON THE RAILING AND WAS ABLE TO REGAIN HIS FOOTING. BROKE THE RAILING IN THE PROCESS BUT AT LEAST HE WASN'T HURT.

FINALLY GOT ALL OUR STUFF MOVED IN THIS WEEKEND, AND NOW WE'RE WORKING ON GETTING THINGS SETTLED INTO A ROUTINE THAT WORKS FOR EVERYONE. MY SISTER AND HER FAMILY WILL BE COMING DOWN NEXT MONTH TO STAY WITH US AND HELP WITH THE WORK.

WITH A HOUSE THIS SIZE THERE IS NO WAY I CAN KEEP UP WITH THE CLEANING ON MY OWN. MY SISTER CAN NOT GET HERE FAST ENOUGH! LOL

BUT IT IS A KENNY FREE ZONE AND NOW THAT THE HEAVY MOVING IS DONE WE CAN RELAX AND ENJOY OUR COUNTRY LIVING THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE.

WE'VE HAD TWO NEW BIRTHS SINCE THE MOVE. AND, SURPRISE SUPRISE, NO SICKNESSES OR DEATHS!

YOU HAVE NO KENNY THERE TO KILL THE NEW FOAL'S ..
SO THEY SHOULD BE FINE NOW...

YPU TOOK THE HORSES WITH YOU??

THE HORSES GO WHERE WE GO. AND NOW THAT WE HAVE A PLACE THAT WE ACTUALLY OWN, WELL WE AND THE BANK OWN, WE HAVE BEGUN TALKING ABOUT THE IDEA OF POSSIBLY GETTING A FEW CHICKENS. WE HAVE A COW FOR MILK, SO WHY NOT A FEW CHICKENS SO WE DON'T HAVE TO BUY EGGS. MAYBE PLANT A FEW VEGETABLES AND THERE WILL ALWAYS BE FOOD HERE FOR EVERYONE. IT MAY NOT BE ANYTHING MORE THAN AN OMLET, BUT THERE WILL BE SOMETHING.

SINCE WE HAVE DESIGNATED THE LARGER OF THE TWO SUN ROOMS AS A SORT OF GREEN HOUSE, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE FRESH VEGGIES ALL YEAR.

WOW YOUR OWN HOT HOUSE. HEALTHIER TO ANDMAYBE NO CANNING !!

IT NEEDS SOME WORK BEFORE WE CAN USE IT THOUGH. NOT SURE WE'LL BE ABLE TO PUT IT TO USE THIS SUMMER. MAYBE BY NEXT YEAR THOUGH. THE ROOF OVER IT LEAKS AND IT HAS CAUSED WEAK SPOTS IN THE FLOOR. DEBBY WALKS AROUND IN THERE WITH NO PROBLEM BUT WHEN I GO IN THERE IT FEELS LIKE THE FLOOR IS GOING TO GIVE WAY UNDER MY WEIGHT. DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES OF SOMEONE FALLING THROUGH THE FLOOR.

SO THE ROOF NEEDS FIXING FIRST, THEN THE FLOOR. AFTER ALL THAT IS DONE WE WILL HOPEFULLY HAVE YEAR ROUND FRESH VEGGIES, AND SOMETHING I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED, FRESH HERBS.
