In the soup.

We're in the soup tonight. After a bunch of great fall days, we're getting up to 1 1/4" of rain all at once. A dreary day in general in the Midcoast, but for us a very typical Sunday:

up at 7ish (which is sleeping-in for us)
cereal and milk
drive 40 miles while looking at 4 different properties for sale like this one
get coffees and a sticky bun at North Cottage Coffee
we've been to this church twice and will probably continue going
have lunch at the Big Top Deli in Brunswick
KT decides not to play soccer game (raining, tired etc)
Drive home
Sit in chairs
Decide to make soup from whatever vegetables and what not are in the kitchen
(Potato, turnip, fennel, carrot, green onion, garlic creamy-style soup)
eat soup.
Search for more properties, finding 30 more to look at.
walk all over house and laundry room trying to find wireless internet signal.
Shower

In bed by 8:15pm

A day in the life.

Went to the Common Ground Country Fair. It was a hoot, but we are all peopled out.

News from the Country Estate 9/18/2009

Working, dawn till dusk, six days a week as much as I can. Winter's comin' who knows what it will bring?

The chickens have been laying eggs out in the yard somewhere's. Bad chickens, Bad.

I scraped ice off my truck window yesterday morning.

That's it.

Laborious Day

A happy labor day weekend to you all.

I'll be celebrating by working most of the weekend.

Especially monday, laborious day.

Mist

A mist rises over the field to the north over freshly cut hay. The birds sing. And I can faintly hear the chickens clucking.
