Since last Friday it has been INSANE around here. I'm talking shakes head crazy!!
We were in Ucuelet all day Saturday, then Sunday we were up super early to unload our dads truck of tools, and our truck of "stuff" from his RV trailer, as he is moving back home(he worked on the West Coast for the past 4 months, but because of his health has had to become a "travelling mechanic", then after that we cleaned the barn, and worked on a whole bunch of pics.
Then Monday we get a phone call at 5am that our dad is really sick and needs us to go get him. So we drove all the way up(3 hrs one way) and picked him up and took him to Nanaimo hospital. Our mom stayed with him while we came home and dealt with a few little things, then we fed rabbits and did chores, they got home and we went to bed pretty darn early! Yesterday we spent all day working on various things we needed too like Champagne and New Zealand Sanctions from the April 5th show. With being sick all last week we didn't spend any time on the computer, and I had some things to do. I've also been busy e-mailing judges and trying to get things organized for Luxton and Cowichan Fairs in September as catalogs need to go out pretty soon for those(because they are fairs, and Cowichan is the biggest fair on the Island).
I had to go to the post office on Monday and yesterday for stamps, and we mailed Valerie Uptagraffts show towel back(hand towel) she had forgotten at the show, then we had to mail a bunch of other things, and finish up the show stuff(all done now)(everyone had their legs weeks ago, but with being sick last week things got postponed!)
I had to research a course that my uncles logging company has to take, and today we worked on our taxes and got them finished. Plus we put a new oxygen sensor on the truck and went to the feed store.
See? Crazy!
Tomorrow we have to work on the oxygen sensor on the truck- long story, and one I am too lazy to type out. I just finished (in the oven) baking a cake for our Uncles B-day tomorrow, and it is also our good friend Sylvia's b-day as well in case she reads this before I send her a b-day greeting tomorrow : )
Rabbits are all doing fine. We will have some Champagne babies available if anyone is interested. We are keeping the buck, but both does in the older litter will be for sale, and we have another litter of two as well. The one doe is very nice, we just don't want more then 4 Champagnes. We will be selling the seniors as we replace them with juniors we've bred as well, so inquire if interested in senior stock down the road!
The only things left on my "HAS TO GET DONE THIS WEEK" are the Luxton and Cowichan catalogs, and my delay on both is I STILL don't have judges for Luxton. I've e-mailed over 20 judges in the Northwest and for the ones who have written me back they are all booked, and some I haven't gotten a reply from. And Cowichan show the judges are all booked, but, we are still waiting for sanction numbers.. That was mailed off the 7th of April. This mail system is SLOW.
Well better run and check the cake!
