Opening the Box

Remember the picture of the half empty study holder? Well today there are at least 150 studies of each lesson and it only took 5 hours.

I left the farm around 8:30am got to the shop, turned on the copy machine and ran it steady for those 5 hours. These will only hold us off a week or 2. No wonder Eva Jean would get so upset when she would come in and find the slots empty. She used to make them all at her home until the risograph quit running for good and the copy machine we took to her place to replace that broke.
Finally made it back to the farm, walk in the apartment and it is cold. After splitting a few logs the fire was started and the place started to warm up just about the time Mark came home. He brought home a couple of boxes, one was more sparkly material for the horse fair and the other the feeders we ordered. Darcy feels it is her job to open each box and has such a great time getting it done.


Of course by the time the box is opened there is cardboard all over the living room floor.
Mark went out to cut more wood while supper was prepared. Tonight we had chicken stir fry served on a bed of white rice and topped with Chinese noodles (the crunchy kind), one of our favorite meals.
We need a closer picture of those delicious vegetables.

Steven was over to work the boys and Rhoda is coming this evening to work Ella. We were relaxing in front of the wood burner when the dogs start playing. They are such goofy dogs but act like they are royalty in front of people they think they can impress.
Emma is pictured below.


But wait, is that rolls of fat on her? Yes poor Mark's feet are sandwiched between Emma and Darcy.

Darcy is pictured below, as old and lovable as she is she still is the boss of Emma.
