busy spring

spring time at the homestead means we are VERY busy. there is the garden to plant, the fryer to tend, the turkeys running wild. i have been doing a lot of moving of plants to give the place a little better look. dear husband has been working like a mad man lately (thankfully) so i have been getting a tad bit behind in the chores around here. i also am without a car, ugh!! so i am unable to run errands and things of that nature. my washing machine also broke, UGH AGAIN!! but i did hand wash some diapers (those just can't wait) in the home made washer. it was NOT fun, but here is a small video i made.....

the part to fix my under 2 year old washer (HE front loading piece of POO) was over $100! well i didn't like my front loader and told hubby to find me an old school top loading washer on craiglist. he did. it was $50 and it works like a charm :)
