Broken Stuff

It seems like the last couple weeks is about broken stuff. Angie was rear ended on her way to work. The car is broken. The refrigerator also decided to croak. Trying to catch up, gain back lost ground. We have a new car, very similar to the rudely smashed up car. I had it shipped from Texas. Also have a new a new fridge and backup freezer and fridge. Spring is very sprung. The pollen seems worse that usual this year. In Atlanta we complain about the traffic and the pollen, neither one is really as bad as we say.

These pics are from a llama walk a couple of weeks back.


We have been eating a fair amount of our own food lately. We get eggs from the chickens (about 4 a day). We still have some pork in the freezer. Now we are getting lettuce, zuchini and green peppers from the garden. Bonnie has been picking a lot of berries too. We have had several awesome fruit salads with our own blueberries and raspberries. The stuff we grow and raise at home tastes so much better, even lettuce.

I went to a few auctions this weekend. I probably spent too much, but I had a good time. I also have some regrets on a couple of items I did not bid on. I ended up with:

  • Three antique seltzer bottles
  • Some junk, I mean real junk mixed in with some good stuff (cheaper than a dumpster)
  • A pressure washer that uses compressed air and a water hose (works ok)
  • A kerosene lantern
  • I very nice soup tureen that Bonnie does not like. (I am going to have to move it on ebay)

I am probably forgeting something. My father was in town. He brought me a Tektronic 735 oscilliscope. I think the time base is screwed up though.
