Pillow Thief
Brian went to bed early, he’s still not feeling well. I stayed up until after midnight cleaning and reading. I finally woke up at 9:15 this morning thanks to a barking puppy. I knew the cat had been sleeping on my head and when I turned around this is what I saw. Apparently my head […]
Knitting Socks
There has been a long running joke, or at least a funny saying, going on between my Mom and I. She tells everyone that her daughter is “growing” sheep, and she is learning to spin yarn and make socks from their wool. Everyone laughs and thinks that is the cutest thing, but it is true. […]
Checking In
I’m still here, I promise! 🙂 I’ve been a little busy this week but will have a more substantial post up soon. Work for me has been very busy this week due to the schools’ mid-winter breaks. Brian isn’t feeling the best, and last weekend was full of things to do as well. I have […]
Tracking Paper Usage
Our second order of Seventh Generation 500 sheets/roll 100% recycled toilet paper came yesterday. We split the first order with a friend so started with only 24 rolls. That was on November 19, 2008. Not bad, eh? I had signed up for the subscribe and save option on Amazon.com and set it at 6 month […]
Oreos and Rain
Most of the snow is gone now and it has been raining since sometime last night. Once lunchtime came at work all I could think about was coming home and cuddling up with a book, a movie, 3 dogs, and a cat. Brian is working late tonight as he is on lookout for flooding across […]
Sunday Stroll
Today I did some more painting around the windows and Brian took down the old trim in our entryway. I did venture outside long enough to take some pictures. It was over 40 again today so a lot of the snow melted away. The garden and the little red barn. I hope we can tear […]
Git ‘Er Done
When we have slow days at work I make mental lists of all the things I could be doing at home. Then when I get home I’m usually tired or just don’t feel like getting much done. Well, the last few months I have been taking advantage of most weekends and gettin’ it done. Here’s […]
Dogs Days of Summer
Since we all miss those nice warm summer days I thought I would share some warm weather pictures. These are some of my all time favorite pictures. I love the teal blue colors of the water and of course I have great memories of all the fun we had that day.
Our 1st Farm Truck
I try to plan for big purchases. This year it was going to be a toss-up between a loader for the JD 4010 (or a separate loader tractor) or a farm truck. Brian found a pretty decent farm truck for sale nearby and we were planning to test drive it this spring. It is the […]
Sunday Stroll
L to R: Rocky, Pistol, Pooh, Shady Can you see the little tracks? This is Lily, our boldest sheep. She climbs up on the feeder to say hi! Our two calves. They are doing pretty well. Still cleaning up. I’m sick of looking at it! Those who saw our logo here will recognize our motto […]
