Fun Days
Today was the kind of day when I really enjoy being a family man. We went to the old historic farm that I have wrote about before. Even though it was a blustery October day, mid 50's with a brisk wind out of the southwest, the day was a warm one. La Nina was running around like crazy, and having the time of her life.
Her favorite part of the day was seeing the new piglets. All three sows on the farm had babies about 3 weeks ago, and they were all running and squealing and playing with each other. One of the groups were all huddled in the corner sleeping and trying to stay warm. Then mommy came in and they all rushed over to get some food of their own.
Yesterday we went to the pumpkin patch, and got our pumpkins for Halloween. At this farm market we go to, they have a deal that you can get all the pumpkins you can carry from point A to point B for 12 dollars. No bags are allowed and it is per person. Last year I made it with 5 pumpkins and the girl working the stand said it was the biggest haul she had seen that year. This year I only did 4 medium pumpkins and it wasn't much of a challenge. BH didn't want me to carry any more because she was afraid I would get hurt.
When we got back from the farm today, La Nina "helped" me carve the pumpkins. She had a tough time reaching and pulling out the seeds. She thought it was "ucky". She was cute doing it.
I do have some news on the job front. I have an interview later this week. If I get it, it would be a big increase in pay, but would be a 40 mile drive to work. My suit is dry cleaned, and I am ready to give'em hell.
I am also happy that my Denver Broncos beat the Cleveland Browns today. Living in Browns country just makes it that much nicer.
Not much else going on.
Later,
Deej
