No Donkey Baby Yet!!

Well, we have been waiting and waiting and no baby donkey yet. Ms. Lili is holding strong on waiting to give birth to another long legged long ear jack or jennet.. I was really hoping for a May date but as of now I don't think that will be an option.

TEA PARTY FUN @ the Capitol

Well today was kinda fun. I took a holiday from work to go down to the state capitol and participate in a TEA Party. TEA stands for Taxed Enough Already. It was interesting to see the people and listen to the speakers. I especially loved watching the Police/Sheriff Mounted Posse as the people would come up to see them and try to pet them or take pictures. I also got to see a couple of my favorite local talk show talents Armstrong and Getty. Here are a few pictures:

MY NEW TRUCK

LOOKY, LOOKY-- Here is my new truck. It is a 2006, Chevy, Silverado! It has 39K miles on the engine. New tires, spray on bed-liner. I also bought a warranty that has unlimited miles but only for four years. I think I did a pretty good job of dickering down the price from $21,997 to $19,977. It is not light gray but more of a darker gray!

I was T P-eed :>)

I looked out the window and this is what I saw---I got t-peed. I thought it was funny!

They appearently went up the street t-peeing at random. It is kinda funny. I remember many years ago being part of the t-peeing crew and loving every minute of it. So, I chuckled a little as I cleaned up the remenants. I thought you'd might laugh a little too. Happy Saturday, everybody!

Spagetti Dinner & Raffle & I WON!

I WON! Last night my school had a fundraiser, a spagetti feed and raffle of baskets, so I went. It was important that I go because I am a teacher at the school and they like it when we go to these events. We they had lots of baskets with different themes, as you can see from the picture the theme of this basket was game night. It was very exciting, because there were lots of really cool baskets themes. I bought some twenty dollars worth of tickets and got twenty four tickets. They had a wii, and an American Girl doll so I put the majority of my tickets in to those two baskets. I also put in for about eight other baskets, and this was one of them. It had Backgammon, Dominoes, Chutes and Ladders, Candyland, Memory, and some candy and pop corn. All very exciting! The really funny thing is that the crowd was really a small turn out and I thought my chances of getting the doll or the wii were very high but sadly no doll or wii, the doll when to another teacher at the school and the wii went to a young boy!

Soccer Ball 4 Hershey Boy

This donkey is Hershey, and he likes to play with toys especially balls. Here he is trying to impress Daisy with his new toy that Isabelle gave me to give him. Daisy of course could care less because she was busy eating the fresh green grasses out in the pasture.

Still trying to get her attention!

He decided to come over and show me his new toy.

Sewing Project ~ TV remote control holder!

Today I made a TV Remote control holder for my bed. Have you ever been fustrated because you are watching tv in bed and you drop the remote off the bed on to the floor. Time after time I have done this and I am actually amazed that my remote even works after owning this tv set for 10 years now. So today I grabbed some extra fabric that I had and made a little mock up for my project. It took some fabric, some more fabric, and a little velcro. My working sample is pictured here but it will not be the final project. I used white thread which is a no no, also didn't finish off the edges. But the cool thing is it WORKS.
