Computer hassles

I have only just had the HDD in my computer replaced. I am still in the process of finding out what DH has to transfer over from the old HDD to this one. But now to add to it the fan is dying and making a loud noise. Great so now that has to be replaced... and then trying to use the shift key on my keyboard and it doesn't work. I only got the keyboard for Christmas so it's not even old yet.

OK moving on.. we had our first ehavy frost last night. At 8pm it was down to -2C (28F) and at 8am this morning it was -3.5. the frost was so heavy that samuel thought it had snowed overnight lol. The not so funny aspect is it froze our water pipes. DH had to spend over an hour trying to thaw them enough to get water. He is going to turn the frost control on when he gets home lol. Right now at 2:30pm it is a balmy 8C (47F).

We are off to have the evening meal with Roberts parents. We have made a large dish of cauliflower cheese and for dessert have a large family sized cheesecake. It is malt/maltesers on the bottom and honeycomb/golden syrup on the top. We will be coming back with our nephew Harry who has just turned 3. He is 7 ths younger than Samuel and they have been missing playing together so he will be here for 2 nights. Hopefully they will be playing enough togetther that Samuel wil leave the cats and dogs alone and stop chasing them and trying to sit on them. Poor animals.

We have increased our number of hens from 6 to 12. A friend has left his rooster (Bob) and 5 chooks here until he gets his chook pen built. We now let them out free range during the day and they seem to know to stop at the gate and not ventrue out of our property. We have 3.5 acres. 1/3 is agisted to 2 horses but the chooks even go and eat the seed off the hay after the horses finish eating it. The chooks don't seem at all scared of the horses.

DD Tash is now 25 wks pregnant, 26 weeks on saturday. Alexander is moving a lot now and you can feel him kick against yuor hand lol. She has inhereited my wonky hip and sciatica though which is making life really fun for her at the moment. Bevan has just bought himself a new 4WD Nissan Navarra.. so they will be living with us for a few years yet. He has a 5 yr loan out to pay for it and most of his wage goes on the payments so they can't afford to move out. I had to go guarantor on his loan though...

well time to head off, Samuel is trying to sit on Tash who doesn't have as much room on her lap anymore lol.
