So you're wondering what we've been up to lately?
Sewing of course, nothing like those older machines, we can repair almost anything with a rip.
Dad's been doing a little homesteading work, it's exhausting, he says it's amazing what people 100s of years ago could endure, I think he's yelling at one of my brodders, I'm sure they're goofing off.
Trins did a little excavating, you go girl! Us girls never cause any problems for dad.
We do things like collect used vegetable oil for...
his 1985 Mercedes 300D, it burns diesel or vegetable oil. It has a separate tank that is pre-heated to reduce the viscosity of the vegetable oil. He starts up and shuts down on diesel, but all the time in the middle he runs on vegetable oil. He says the best part about it is stickin' it to the man. The smell of the exhaust reminds me of French fries.
Blaise trying to work out some deal with my sistas. They took my advice and said no.
Taming a skittish calf (after chasing her over 6 acres), they have to tether her and either bring food to her or lead her to her mom for milk so she associates us humans with something good / food.
More homesteading type work, my brodders Calvin & Blaise laying the foundation for a gully crossing (Calvin knows girls are better than boys, he didn't want this post getting out).
When we're involved we leave the easy work (like pushing the dump button) to them. We don't stop for anything...
except puppies... like this one that crawled out of the last pile we dumped (I was wondering why that rock had hair all over it).
Ok Trins, thanks for the puppy break. Now you can push the button Blaise.
We also stop for chocolate ice cream (which order should I lick these in?).
They were .10 cents each! Yeah finally ice cream little girls can afford! Dad said this time we found a worm hole to 1950.
Great job, Liberty. Thank you for the update. I was especially impressed that you children were working all the heavy equipment. It goes to show that there is NOTHING you all can't do. Keep up the great work!!
