Some days the clouds in your thoughts seem to lift. Other days, it seems the best activity is to find a nice blankie, hide your face, and take a nap. Then, you’ll feel like eating, of course, upon awaking.  At … Continue reading →

New Year, New Me?

Posted on January 1, 2016 by Marla Rose

The other day Pig-farmer asked me if I had made my resolutions.  At that time, I was delighting in post-Christmas quiet while pouring myself a mug of coffee.  I gave him my very best, scariest, don’t-mess-with-me look.  What the heck? I mean, … Continue reading →

We never know what is possible if we don’t try.

The rains have passed and now the sun + moisture + humidity make it feel like a sauna.  I have never understood why people pay good money to sit in a sauna.  If you grow up on a farm, there … Continue reading →

A 20th birthday and Easter – what a wonderful way to spend a weekend. We have been able to celebrate Easter with three extended families and our church. Friends have visited. Everyone loves a baby goat kid. Poor little Gonzo wasn’t getting … Continue reading →

I didn’t have my camera outside with me very much last week; but I did catch an unusual and pretty sunrise. Saturday was a day for pig-work.  The kind of pig-work that made me dread heading out the door.  First, … Continue reading →

Piglets were born 2/25/15

After getting snow, snow and some more snow, it is nice to have something that feels like spring. The pastels of yesterday’s sunrise were a beauty to behold. Farm babies feel like spring. Being born is hard work.  These babies … Continue reading →

Tis the Season to Be Behind!

Posted on December 23, 2014 by Marla Rose

Family that are friends (my favorite type of family). Friends that are family. Clowning with my boys. A little respect for a former co-student that went pro. Throw a college graduation in the weekend before Christmas … and, well, I … Continue reading →

Photo Friday, Update and Christmas Prep

Posted on December 12, 2014 by Marla Rose

The sore trapezius (muscle between shoulder/neck) persists, but I think is slowly, oh-so-slowly, getting better.  I’ve avoided much typing and limited time on the computer.  I think that aggravates it.  Texting, too.  Posture, posture, posture! Pig-farmer has been gone most of … Continue reading →

So, it snowed.

Posted on November 16, 2014 by Marla Rose

Which was completely unnecessary in my humble opinion. I mean, I know it is pretty and all that stuff, but it is November 16th!  Winter, by my calendar, is not until December 21st. The animals didn’t seem to mind too … Continue reading →
