Snakes Help!!

April first,
Time, it sure has a way of speeding by. I had thought we would be deep into our building by now and we have not even started. I think we are close but wouldn't bet on it at this point. It's a good thing I have a husband who is so slow. It drives me nuts of course, but like it or not he seems to be right about how long this is taking and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry yet so.......... he is much more use to the process of time than I am.
Our location is a good one, there are one or two drawbacks but for the most part its a beautiful site.One of the drawbacks is that there is a freeway that runs by it and all that, that entails. Another thing is that there seem to be a lot of rattle snakes on the hill. I am scared for my boy mostly, but for all of us and the littlest ones more, only because my boy seems to have a thing about snakes. I worry that it is a premonition as that runs strong in my family. I also worry as we will be using quite a lot of stone out side and I know from when I was a kid that the snakes like to get in that warm stone. Hey does anybody know what i could do about this?? What about anti venom kits?How about shock guns? What about animals or birds that will get the snakes. Plants they don't like? Noise, well I get that. But hey do you know anything that might help? I still have not gotten a comment and I am not sure if I ever will because I am not sure if I am doing this right but working on it, also any help in that area, including my content or the writing itself would be vastly appreciated. Thanks my friends for the moment I am off
