- Attie And Audrey Are Looking For Seperate Homes In North Carolina
Many of our long time readers may remember the blog Attie Cattie. Sadly Attie and Audrey never learned to tolerate one another and with a young baby in the house their frequent fights and refusal to use the litterbox has become problematic. ...
- Curiosity... Theirs And Mine
One of my favorite things, when I have a little extra time...(and the ground is dry)is to lie on my stomach in one of the animal pens and watch the animals. Of course, I don't lie on my stomach when I am in with the equines...that would not end well,...

Tawdry Audrey Sings
For some reason, yesterday, this song followed me around as I worked on the farm.
I have to blame our goat Audrey for planting this song in my brain.
As I cleaned water tanks in the goat pen,
I could have sworn I heard our own Tawdry Audrey singing...
she continued....
Me: "Audrey, you know it isn't April, don't you?"
Poor Audrey was a little embarrassed and looked away, blushing...
"No worries Audrey, we could always use a few more flowers around here!"
It has been a beautiful spring so far with hardly any rain.
Luckily, a possibility of rain was predicted yesterday after nearly a week of beautiful blue skies.
In spite of the dryness, the orchard is in full bloom.
And the lilacs have just begun to open,
gracing us with their heavenly fragrance.
I love cutting bouquets to bring into the house.
Well, Audrey was right about that rain...
by late afternoon, yesterday, the showers came...
which is good, because everything needed a drink!
