kittens

Well I finally got two barn kittens from my friend Amos.  They were ready to leave their mom and have settled in nicely.  Basically they frolic all day, chasing anything that moves.  I think they will become excellent mousers.  Gracie, my dog thought they were new toys or substitute squirrels. As in she almost killed one, BAD DOG!  I have to be extra vigilant to keep her away, far away from the kittens.

Have been tackling a list each day of tasks that MUST be done before WINTER arrives in earnest. I feel like I am racing against a clock that is rigged to put me behind! Once it sets in... the opportunity is lost. Aaron and I have also been planting more garlic this week, still another 3/4 bushel left, going in Friday.  Ah, soooo much to finish! How to get it all accomplished???
