...and my bookwork for September is done. Went ahead and did all the October drafts..setup to draft and recorded in the ledger. That only leaves two months of them for 2015...WOW!
Hard to believe this year is winding down so fast. It has been a VERY bad one for the pigs. I am VERY glad we had a calf crop to sell this summer, and that all the rental houses and the store are paying.
Lost a couple of months on the best house, but the couple there now appears ecstatic to have it, so hopefully they will stay a good, long while. The cows are dropping a couple of calves here and there now...going to be interesting to get that bunch back on a tighter season next year. Eight heifers we raised this year to breed are looking good.
With the new generator, I hope we are finally set up on that farm for the long haul, emergency planning, etc. The LP is supposed to go in tomorrow, and the installer will help get it running before week's end. WHEW!
He's installing the heat to the workshop/greenhouse this week, too. Winn and I worked in the dry over there today, painting an old rocking chair for him...he's growing up SO fast.
It was so nice to have all my tools, the paints, dropcloths, all organized and ready to use. Even had some paper towels and a bottle of Ivory soap in there, in a crate of cleaning supplies...and believe me, we needed it!
Mike and Winn hauled wood to both boilers yesterday. I think the AC will be shut off on Thursday night, and the house boiler will be lit. I am sure it will depend upon the day the installation is done on the other house, then that one lit, too, to check out the workshop's system. Using recycled radiators there, so it is a different thing than we've done before.
Mike has about cleaned out the shed he was working on earlier in the week. More places for hay. He's spending every spare hour cutting and splitting wood, too. Good thing he loves that, with three boilers to feed.
Fall for sure...forties to fifties lows to highs starting Friday.
Are you ready to see 2015 wind down, too?
