I meant to write you much sooner with the rest of the story, but It does me no good to give you my list of excuses.
After 17 long hours in the car we finally arrived in Decoy Kentucky. The tiny little community deep in the Hills. The place where the "town hall" and voting office building look more like an outhouse.
I've been enjoying living back in the middle of nowhere (except when we suddenly need something from wall-mart.) The weather has been beautiful and while you all are experiencing snow in WI, I've been enjoying the sunshine. Picking fresh Carrots. Picking fresh Turnips. Petting the goats (who Doug butchered today *cries*) and so on. Today we caught all the chickens and clipped their wings so we could put them in the fence. In a few days here when we get time we are going to be butchering them.
Doug is looking for a job still. He has an interview tomorrow and one on Monday. So it's finally looking pretty good for us. Pray something works out. We also have a house that we can probably get...depending on where Doug gets a job.
Will update you all when anything actually happens.
Thinking of you two lots! Keep up updated!
ReplyDeleteCan we see a picture of the town hall? Did you help catch chickens? Will you help with the butchering? Thanks for the update. I do enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you for the update. Sound like you are keeping yourself busy. The kids are disappointed because while we have had snow flurries, there is not any snow on the ground. I don't mind that much. Missing you guys!
ReplyDeleteYes, I helped catch the chickens. I will help with the chicken butchering unless Jubilee takes to much attention. I intend to take some KY photos sometime, but I need to get out with doug when I'm not in a hurry so I can make him stop and let me out to take photos.
