October is nearly gone

October is nearly gone and I haven't written a thing! Well here is an update, late as always.

On the good news side of life: the big transaction I was spending millions of hours on at work has completed! I have definitely learned a lot from this first multi-million deal. Can't wait to do another! (well maybe in a year or so)

The new chickens are laying eggs. We have went from 5 eggs a day to an average of 13!

Vernors is accidentally pregnant! Almost as unexpected as Bell & Heineken upon their arrival. Apparently those that quoted me the 3 month mark for bucklings to be able to reproduce, WERE WRONG! Also, I would like to quell the idea that does go into heat in late October. That also IS WRONG! hehe. Oh well, new kids are coming our way in January-or-so.

The kitchen has not been moving too quickly. But, we may have found boards that we can use to fix our 100 year old floor. Very exciting news, to me! Also Mike has started some of the plumbing deconstruction. One of these days, we'll get there.

On the bad news front: the saddest item I have to share is the loss of Heineken. Unfortunately, he got a urinary track blockage and ended up bursting his urethra. It was a very sad day when we took him to the vet and he had to be put down. I'm a little shook up and I have to admit panicky about the new "little Heinekens" on the way. Just worried that I could lose another one little one and that makes me sad. Heineken and his cute jumping skills will be missed very much.

Thankfully the only other bad news I have is the death of our camera. Silver Lake and the sand, I think, has done it in. So, that means no new pictures! It has been with Best Buy for 3 weeks. I will not start my rant and rave on how ridiculous that is, let's just say that I am frustrated and Best Buy will not be seeing anymore business from us!

Off to Columbus this weekend to visit Mom & Dad Keenan and hopefully, weather permitting, a zoo visit.
