From appointments to having my laundry room spread out between the kitchen and living room things have been a little hectic. Our power issues have gone nuclear. We have a bad battery in our power bank, and a system that does not meet our power needs. We have to use a generator that uses gas and that is expensive. Number One Husband is on it!
The power bank had to be moved in order to access the individual batteries and since I couldn't help, we enrolled the neighbor into the situation. Everything sits behind our washer/dryer combo. Everything was put back into place until we get our new system installed. The power bank weighs 1200 pounds.
Oh, did I mention that our pressure tank gauge also stopped functioning, so the water pump kept coming on every 2 gallons of use? This also sits behind the washer and power bank. We were able to temporarily remedy this situation until we are able to install a new one when the new solar system gets installed. It is tight quarters in the utility room.
We had company staying at the homestead that had an emergency and had to leave a day early. They are fine, but their little dog is very sick. The are seeking treatment for him now. We had a nice time while they were here. We ate good food, enjoyed the outdoors and had a good visit while it lasted. Update: The little dog recovered, praise God!

| We had a rare event happen. Two female pronghorns came right up to our porch. |
 |
| Just look how the sun is outlining the clouds at sunset. |
 |
| The alignment of the moon and this star was just as impressive. |
 |
| Our hummingbirds are not shy. |
 |
| I got up early one morning to feed the hummingbirds but before I could hang up the feeder I had a customer. |
 |
| I held it up and as still as I could until she was finished eating. |
 |
| Just look how dry it is. |
This is just a sample of what has been going on in our neck of the woods. We never know what tomorrow will bring. Every day we just press onward until it's time for bed just like everyone else traveling through this life.
Have a blessed day!
Mrs. Smith
