I have been on a fix-it craze the past few weeks. In the preparation for selling the house I keep finding things that have a need for fixing. For example.. the hole behind the door caused from hasty entry into our house. Todd is gone all week and is so busy when he gets home that I have decided to just start fixing things myself. Tightening doorknobs, adjusting cabinent doors, patching walls. Can I do it? Yes I can! Everyone please rise. Now clap and holler. I would like a standing ovation.

Home Wreckers
Today our family prepared for spring with some clean up in our yard. We raked and swept and pulled out old plants. Trimmed, raked some more and best of all we burned our ditch banks. For my city slicker friends who have never had the pleasure of burning ditches let me just tell you, it is a rare treat. This year especially we realized amazingly large amount of mice that had burrowed in for the winter. Now that we've destroyed their homes and leveled the back pasture to a crisp black we are tired, hungry, smelly and ultimately... home wreckers.

Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave Had twenty-three sons, and she named them all Dave?
Well, she did. And that wasn't a smart thing to do. You see, when she wants one, and calls out "Yoo-Hoo! Come into the house, Dave!" she doesn't get one. All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!
This makes things quite difficult at the McCaves' As you can imagine, with so many Daves. And often she wishes that, when they were born, She had named one of them Bodkin Van Horn.

When you die you should be admitted stright into heaven for all people in the world that you have helped to lighten their load and brightened their day (not to mention their bathtubs)

Real Estate
Moving really stinks. It just gets harder the longer you live in the same place and the more kids you have. When we built our house 4 years ago we thought we'd be here for a while. Life changes things like that. Now we are selling our house and on our way to Pocatello for school. We love our house but know this will be a great move for us. Now if we could just get it sold. It is a bit unusual for our area but the right family will find it and fall in love like we did when we built it. Now we are just praying for the patience to see it through. Stay tuned for change of address coming to a blog near you...
