feeling a bit better today

thank you for your lovely comments yesturday,

as you can guess i was rather sad yesturday and feeling rather low



It was my birthday yesturday, and i was 43...and i just felt...... well, like the years are whizzing by, and i just felt my dream house would be just that 'A DREAM'

Thankfully i am feeling a bit better today, i am even thinking about those saucy chat lines to make money...lol..

But hopefully in the next day or so i will feel a bit better and full of energy again...

Catch you all later...... and thank you for being there for me

Lost my Mojo

First of all sorry for not posting for a few moths, but as the song goes 'Life has been a Rollercaoster'

to sum it all up, work very busy, managed to take a wage.. had over 8k in my daydream fun 'HURRAY!!!!! finally getting somewhere,

T.H.E.N...... a buyer let me down,, had loads of stock.. so had to put some of my daydream fund money back into business, so now i am left with just over 3k..

so at the mo i do feel a bit piddled off,

To be honest i have also lost my mojo, as every time i have been thinking or looking at properties, its just made me feel so low, and i end up crying, and saying 'sod it' and sending hubby out for a takeaway ...

maybe after blurting this out, maybe i can get it out of my system and maybe my mojo will come back....

ooooo ye if you do find my mojo, just give it a dam good kick up the back side, and send it home as it is desperately needed....

wooohoooo i have hit the 1k savings ..lol..

wooohooooo i have now got over 1k...lol...

sold some things at a farm auction yesturday.... some broad bean and cabbage plants, also sold some wax jackets and wellies,

cashed out my free scratchcard money from virgin bingo ( if you want to know how just let me know in the comments and i will talk you through it)

plus cashed out some money from paypal for things i have sold on ebay

been a beautifull day here, so i have been doing some more sowing, and waht ever surplus i got i will take to the auction, i am also going to layer some honeysuckle, to get some cuttings going, plus i think i will get some root cuttings from my pineapple mint, so ican sell them on too at hte auction... i might as well, even if i only get 50p per plant it all helps... towards my fund.

my sealed tin is getting heavier by the day too, with the loose change i am putting in.

sorry there are no pics today for you to see, but i really do want to make hte most of this weekend, and make the most of it out in the garden.

what a beautifull unspoiled gem

i seen an old farm advertised on the old internet, which is only a few miles away, and hubby agreed to take me to have a look,

wow was i in daydream heaven, an old little farmhouse cottage which i think dates back to the 1700's and hardly been modernised. vintage bliss

took some pics to show you all



and this is the back of the house.... this part of the house looks as though it was added umpteen years ago...its even lower than hubby, and he is 6ft 2



there is 10 acres of land, which is rough pasture and woods,ooooo ye and a stream at the bottom of the garden



here are some pics of the surrounding land





and for the grand sum of 220k.....((((((((((((((SIGN)))))))))))))))

on the way back the next house to the farm we seen a guy outside who hubby works with, and he was saying that loads of people have been going to see it, so its going to get snapped up, even with the loads of work that needs doing.

this afternoon when we came back i was sooooooooo desperate i was thinking of putting a donation button on my blog, or even starting a new blog purely for donations...lol.... and then i came to my senses...

i will plodd along and one day hopefully when i have got money i will find another old farm

there's one good thing with all this, hubby is now on side, he was even working out how much tonnage i need to sell of grade A textiles to cover the price...lol...

anyway going now as i am in the middle of making bacon and onion mini quiches with grated cheese on top. trying to use the abundance of eggs i've got.....tata for now..

HOPE YOU ARE ALL HAVING A GOOD EASTER..DONT EAT TOO MUCH...

just a quicky..... i just want to say a VERY BIG 'THANK YOU'

to you, as your comments really do mean alot to me, as some times i feel i need to get back into the real world and wake up, and realise the way that i am going i will never get my smallholding,

I am going to carry on and maybe one day when i am on my zimmer frame i might own one..lol..



yesturday in work i managed to sell some levi jeans to a local ebayer and sell some old welsh blankets and quilts to an antique dealer so a grand total of £247 is to be added to my total......wooooohoooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

'well.......I never'

Well......I never i actually found out that hubby has allways wanted a pet cow, and kept asking his parents for one when he was small...lol.... well he's got one now....ME....LOL...



I honestly think he is getting used to the 'good life' idea, he doesnt grumble anymore when i ask him to help me in the garden, and has said he wants to buy an incubator.....espcially when he seen how much the young geese were going for...
PLUS..... he doesnt tell me we cant have a smallholding anymore...so he is def getting used to the idea..

sadly the chicks we bought a few weeks ago all died..was well gutted, the only thing i can think of it was too long in the cold in the auction, and the chill had set in.

been having a good few weeks.... managed to sell some vintage things in work so i can offically add another £500 to my total...

went to the arm auction again this weekend, was meaning to take htings to sell, but we got up late. bought a pair of young red silkies which are sooooooooo cute, and this year's hatch



and a white pair which are older...they were in a box so couldnt see them properly, and when we got them home their feet/legs are in very poor condition...so will be treating htem over the next week or so



this weekend i am making the most of the dry weather and have been in and out of the garden..and have been transplanting my cabbage plants etc




and now i am going to have a lovely fried egg sandwich with these lovely fresh eggs

yummmmmmmy

and we're off ( again)

yep my daydream fund has now got some money in it again... so we're off with the grand total of............

wait for it................


£50..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



so my little piggy has now been fed...lol..




OTHER NEWS.....UPDATE.....

went to the farm auction on saturday with hubby, and we bought 6 bluebell chicks and 6 naked neck chicks..... sadly we lost one of the bluebell chicks, it was a very cold and damp day, there is one that still doesnt look right, so i havent gone into to work today, so i can keep an eye on it...

have decided i am going to grow alot more seeds etc than i will use myself to sell at the farm auction to raise some more cash...so this afternoon i am going to buy a kg of runner bean seeds and a kg of broad bean seeds and a box of 408 plant trays for 9 plants each, from a local bargin shop/garden supplies, this guy also has a storage unti by my unit so... he's giving me a goods price on them...i think the trays work out at 12p each and the runner bean seeds are £11 per kg so all in all i will make some money there..if not i will have loads of runner beans to sell and put in the freezer...lol...

Need to plant up some strawberry plants that i got today, which i ordered off ebay... i bought 20 runners, which are huge and healthy... so will pot them in individual pots and keep them in the greenhouse, to bring them on a bit earlier... cant wait.... strawberries and cream......mmmmmmmmmm


so my mojo is back on track...

catch you all later.....
