Animals
- A Few Friends, A Lot Of Ladybugs, And A Little Knitting
I often am asked which animal is my favorite...which is like asking a mother which child is her favorite. It's impossible to place a comparative value on my animals.I love them all and cannot imagine life without any of them! And that is the double...
- Solitary?
Honestly, I don't know what I was thinking yesterday when I said that my life is quite often solitary. The truth is...I never have a moment alone.(Not even in the "loo"!)Yes, even in that one moment we hope will be private,there are always at...

Let's talk..... With my talking, I am sure you could not hear the squeals,but if you listen to this next clip and turn up your sound (the whole way),you will hear it in the distance.(Imagine it 10 times louder and that is how I heard it!) Normally...
- A Moment
How many of us go about our tasks each day deep in thought and not truly aware of what is around us? We spend so much time in our own thoughts and not truly engaged in the world. And then at the end of the day, we don't remember much of anything striking...
- Back To Basics... My Thoughts
Life at the farm hums on...the perpetual cycle continues. Each and every day I am privileged and thankful to be a part of that. Before sunrise I awaken to the song of the resident cardinals and as dawn creeps through the wood, listen as the rest of the...

Music To My Ears
I love music...
music of all types.
I've always felt that my life had a soundtrack.
Different songs take me back to different times in my life.
Perhaps the sweetest song, though, is the sounds of the farm at any given moment.
Be it rain showers, crickets chirping, katydids singing, birdsongs,
gobbling turkeys, braying donkeys, or snorting pigs....
those sounds tell me I'm home...
the happiest place in my world.
Yesterday as I moved about the front pasture,
cleaning up manure,
I heard some songs that I wanted to share with you....
The sheep are as socialized as I had hoped they would be.
Whenever they see me, they come running...
and bleating.
If only I knew what they were saying!
You might (or might not) remember that we have another "Grace" on the farm.
Grace, the fainting goat....
I noticed something curious about this Grace the other day.
Check out the long hair on her back legs!
Now I heard that armpit hair and leg hair is back in style (apparently)...
but this definitely takes the cake!
Can you believe it?
It's the 1st of July, already!
It looks like I had better find some patriotic party hats for the animals...
I think we'll have an Independence Day celebration!
