Relentless

What's Relentless? 
THE HEAT.
It is something else.
I just got to work.
I only have internet here.
We have been at our County Fair.
Since last Thursday.
We are HOT.
We are TIRED.
We are thankful it's done.
I have pictures to share.
They are at home.
On my camera.
I am a proud momma.
Grand Champion Sheep Showman is my oldest.
Res Champion Sheep Showman is my baby.
I must go now.
Will be back soon.
It's too HOT for much else.

SNEak PeEk







My new kitchen/dining combo area that looks like a tornado went thru..if you go right at the china
hutch you would see the rest of my kitchen.  It does look a bit better now.  Not quite as cluttered.
Still has paneling and UGLY carpet.




My view from my living room.  Looking over the cornfield
in the evenings.



This is ZB's bedroom.  All the bedrooms were STARK white with this lovely, celery green shag carpet.  You can't really see that his walls are now gray.  New bedding that is black/gray/white plaid.  New ceiling fan and light fixture.  Carpet to come.  Someday.



This is my bathroom...that is fixin to get a COMPLETE re-do.  There are so many things wrong with this bathroom, I'll just tell ya what is right and going to stay.  That would be the window and the vanity cabinet.  We are getting a shower, new sink/countertop, floor, toilet and on the backside of this bathroom(right) is our bedroom.  We will open up the closet and close off the door to the hallway(where I'm standing for the picture) and make it a master bathroom.  They can't start until October {sad face}.


I really can't get enough of these beautiful sunsets.




Last but not least.

My gorgeous, green bean carpet that is EVERYWHERE!  Well, living area.  Isn't it wonderful?
{total sarcasm}
It too will go away.
Someday.



More pics to share, but must go.  Took for-evah to download
these few.  Having a birthday supper for JB and my mom tonite.
Have a great week.

HOT HOT HOT

That's what's going on here.  OMGosh.  We are having our Stocker/Feeder sale tomorrow at our sale barn and it's quite a challenge to keep these cattle cooled off and plenty of water.  We have sprinklers set up on the pens and my oldest boy spends his day filling water tanks.  It's so dry here, people are selling their cattle and even their cows.  We will probably have around 3000 head tomorrow. 

Still  have no internet at home, still have not downloaded any new pics, have hardly posted anything new or worth reading...Forgive me please.  Thank you.  We are soooo busy at the barn and our county fair is in 2 weeks and....then I have my other job--oh yea and remember, I moved about 6 weeks ago.  Yea.  Still am not totally unpacked.  Oh well, I have this winter right?  LOL

Stay cool and please don't leave my blog...I promise to be a better blogger soon!!
If you're looking for something to do tomorrow around 11am CST...check out  our sale, you can watch live thru cattleusa.com my hubby is an auctioneer( I think he's AWESOME!) as well as my f-i-l--- click here and click on the tab, Winfield Livestock Auction.

Have a great week friends!!

I Won! I Won!

I just won an AWESOME give-a-way!  Rachel got some super cute jewelry off of ETSY and gave 2 pieces away, I just happened to get my name drawn and won the necklace!  I'm really excited...I do love me some cool jewelry!!  Check out the drawing here~she brought out the cowboys for the big drawing, they are adorable!

STUFF!



I'm slowly digging my way out of boxes at our new house!  We are L*O*V*I*N*G it, but will be glad when we are settled.  So many pics to share...and not able to.  Hope to get internet at the house in the next month...or so :)

I am missing my blog friends. 


On a side note, my oldest will be 14 tomorrow.



WHAT?  Where did that time go?  He can't be.



He is.


Will try to check back in soon.  Wheat harvest has begun in my part of the country.  I am anxious to get out and get some pics of that beautiful golden grain!!
