April's Update

Ah life in our household.

It's been a weird winter, hardly any snow.   Jim didn't much care for it since he wanted to go skiing.   he was unable to do so all winter, I never even cracked out the snow shoes.   We managed to get out once for some sledding.   Disappointing that way, but on a positive note it meant less shovelling of snow, and less use of crocks in the rabbitry!  YEAH!!!    One Sunday afternoon we had a layer of snow so the lad and I had a good deal of fun drawing pictures in the snow.  :) 

It's been hard in the rabbitry this spring.. I've had some sick babies this spring.  I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised as I've had healthy bunnies for a while now, so I was due for some trouble I suppose. Still doesn't mean I like it, and I'd love to get to the bottom of it.

I took a tumble fixing the tarp and ended up with some badly pulled muscles over my left rib cage.  Put a bit of a dampener of my activity levels, but.. Hey.. I survived!  :)

what else...
My dad went for a bit without any pain which was a good thing.  Unfortunately the pain has returned and he's feeling a bit demoralized by it.   Makes it harder for my mom.   Please pray for them both.

Jim has a bad cold/sinus thing going on this week and with his blood pressure pills can't take anything to relieve that.

Justin is having TONS of fun playing pirates with our lego lately.   It's a good way to practice the language pirates used, and to pretend to be some of the pirates that we read about.  :)

I've started digging in the gardens again.  Getting them ready for spring planting.   I was stupid last week.  I decided to dig up and move dirt so I could get my bunny garden planted... and well.. let's just say my poor pulled muscles didn't much like me doing that.    We do learn from being stupid though.  :)  

Last night I went to London to a church that has a used book sale.   it was good to go.  Met people there that I've met on other occasions so was able to chat with them for a bit.  Picked up a few supplies and sold a guinea pig.

uh, what else... hard to remember.  I really need to update this blog at least once a month, makes it easier.

I have a couple friends whose husbands are between jobs.  Please pray that both find jobs so they can continue to support their families.

Anyways, until next time.  Keep well and live for God.!  :)
