Homestead dreams of harmony and such…

Our hens got their first taste of outdoor spring fun today. They are just a few weeks away from being old enough for outdoor life and today was their first glimpse of the outdoors. Boy were they unsure in the beginning but they eventually took to chasing bugs and having fun in the yard. There...

Seriously, you vomited again? & Who is that living in my car?

It’s been amusing around here. Meaning the drama and craptastic stuff, the stuff you just have to laugh off is in abundance. We try very hard to not give in to the woe is me attitude, life isn’t easy (for anyone) and it’s not all sunshine and roses either. Perspective is the key to shaping...

Really, 5 min cake in a mug? You becha!

Time flies… When it Rains, it pours… We have some more news too!

Is it strange that vacuuming was enjoyable for me this last week? I got a wild hair and was having a good ole time with our vintage Filter Queen vacuum. It might have been the warmer weather that got me all motivated or perhaps it’s the prospects of getting out of this place and in...

We are holding our breath because we may have found OUR house…

Hopefully I am not jinxing us here but I just wanted to spread the upbeat news. With all the crappy happenings a bit of good is always nice, even if it is a bit premature… So, we did look at a home we liked today! I mentioned it yesterday briefly (I was trying not to...

Whoa, that lovin’ feeling!!!

Yeah, so we’ve got some horny animals in the house these days. It could be that valentines day is next week and love is in the air… or perhaps it is just because they are both unfixed still and are feeling “urges”… Either way it is bad news! Gabby walks around with her butt in...
