It is only a temp job that will last from 1 to 6 months soon as the job
is posted online (at Colorado.gov) I am going to apply.

They were interviewing only 4 people from the temp agency, so far I
have not heard anything.

Hey tomm, Yes the heat is really doing alot of damage on farmers.Already feeding hay. several months early.Because of lack of rain we can't find any hay.We are going to have to sell some or all of our stock.Seems alot of farmers are selling now so the price will be very low.At the same time the grocerie store will be raising their prices.It should be against the law.Thanks for asking. hugs Mary

It is always nice to see the pix of the gifts, it helps give ideas on what to gather up and send! I am working on PRE making boxes ahead. If I buy things in groups I just toss them into the ziploc bags marked by MONTH and add as I go along. I am sorting/cleaning out the Crap/craft room now so BOY are the bags filling up. I do 3 different secret stitcher swaps each month, so the goodies can add up fast. But it is fun!

I had a motorcycle accident last Sunday evening that has left me in a tremendous amount of pain all week and the drugs, etc have caused "brain fog" to set in, so I am off to double check if I signed up for Aug.!

i just came from tennessee over the weekend and all along the way the corn stalks were the shortest i have ever seen them. i was hoping to buy some fruits & veggies along the drive but no luck. i am praying things work out for you whether finding food for your cattle or being able to sell them at a decent price.

You would think that the grocery store would pass along the savings!

I wanted to share my awesome package that I received from my Secret Pal ... dabbler312 aka Kristine Jensen. She was my pal before and again she has out did herself.

I received a huge piece of ladybug fabric (I collect ladybugs), 3 green fat quarters, a red fat quarter, a fall panel, emery board, pins, 5 machine quilting needles, 2 york peppermint patties, bag of jelly beans, dress up christmas buttons, snowman applique pattern, 2 McCalls patterns - one has 8 different patterns for stockings and the other has patterns for a Christmas Card holder, stocking, table runner and a tree skirt (all matching), a pattern to make a shopping bag (which I will use my ladybug fabric for), a pattern to make a wall hanging, a paper piecing pattern to make a Christmas tree and stocking and also a package of steam a seam for applique.

Look at the pics and drool!!! Love it all!!!
