Ted went to lock up the chickens and wouldn't let the girls go. They've been staring intently at the door since he went out.

Friday

Friday is a terror. I know she doesn't look like it, but she IS. See that toy under her? We have to hide it at night or else she runs all over the house with it, dragging it from one room to another, over and over and over. She thumps up and down the stairs … Continue reading Friday

Mud. I farm mud.

February 10, 2021February 7, 2021 / strivingacres / 1 Comment

When the snow melts off, it's just mud; mud everywhere. Ugh. Belle, Bessie, and Tilley just come in here for feed. They hate the mud, too. I think I speak for all of us here when I say that we cannot wait for spring to arrive! DG thoroughly agrees.

Fox!

July 27, 2020July 27, 2020 / strivingacres / Leave a comment

I was doing dishes Saturday afternoon, looking out the kitchen window, when I saw a flash of a red tail on the other side of the fence and thought a rooster got loose. Then a second later, it came out from behind the brush, and it was a fox! It went all around the two … Continue reading Fox!

Today’s project

May 25, 2020 / strivingacres / Leave a comment

Last year, a lost dog appeared at our door late at night and proceeded to lose his ever-loving mind. He was just aggressive and scared enough that I didn't feel comfortable opening the door to let him inside, and during the ensuing night, he wound up destroying my screen door and putting a hole in … Continue reading Today’s project
