A little brick home sat on the … Continue reading Auction time!

June 28, 2022 / strivingacres / Leave a comment

Stella stayed up all night the past two nights and caught one mouse each night for her efforts. All that late night partying has tuckered her out - she's slept all day! She won't budge even when I poke her.

When the power goes out

June 19, 2022 / strivingacres / Leave a comment

Last week, we (Ted, Jake, Janeesa, and I) went bowling and ordered takeout. As we were sitting in the parking lot, waiting on our food, Sahara called and frantically told us to get home asap because the storm was coming in and tree limbs were falling on the roads due to high winds. As we … Continue reading When the power goes out

Gramma Izzie always fed "her birds" (wild birds), and I started doing it after she died. I'm still doing it. I have four feeders on the porch, and I recently put up a glass hanging birdbath (but the birds wouldn't go near it with water so I am using it as a feeder now and … Continue reading Bird treats
