another day

Well it took all week but the hay dried down and we got it baled up. Pretty disappointing production though, only 2 wagon loads.
Have to feed some of it out right away as the last few were baled late Monday night. Almost missed 4H!
Finally found a job this week. I will be working at Merrill Iron and Steel as a 2nd shift maintenance man. Pretty big place, looks like it will be interesting work.
Finished helping our neighbor lay tile at his new place. Almost 2000 sq ft of marble tile..my wrists are worn out from all the trowel and sponge work.
The piggies have the garden all tilled up. Knocked down all the corn stalks...all I need to do is spread some chicken manure and run the disc across it in the spring. They will be going to freezer camp on the 18th.
Brother in law came up and we butchered some chickens. He took 13 home. Quite a load of meat. We need to finish the rest up.
Have to get all the firewood cut and split yet as well. And this year I'd like to haul the hay up and tarp it instead of continually plowing the driveway out all the way to the shed in back. We'll have to see how things go.
