I’m adjusting.
Sorta.
Mom is still MY Mom. Although she does seem to love and pet on that other cat.
She still picks me up, kisses me all over my face, brushes my fur, and has me sleep RIGHT BY HER!!! (And Boo Berry)
Dad seems to be Hobbs’ (Hobbie Hobbs is what Mom calls him) favorite. Hobbs sleeps right next to Dad.
Sometimes Hobbs and I rub noses.
I guess we are adjusting.

MOM!! TLC HAS MY BED!!!!
TLC, why are you on Boo Berry’s bed!
BECAUSE Hobbs is on the sofa!!
Dad and I laughed OUT LOUD!
NOT FUNNY!!! Boo Berry replied.

We were heading out to load up some siphon tubes when I looked up and saw —
The hawk was scouting us for food.
We have crows fly into our trees randomly.
I think about trying to feed them so they will stay, but I never do it.
I actually rather like the hawk; crows and hawks don’t live in the same area.
So — I have a hawk instead. 🙂

Cloud Iridenscene is so beautiful
We don’t get to see them often—
But when we do—it’s delightful!!!

We still have to wear coats. It’s been such a roller-coaster of weather this Spring.
Last week we had 81* weather —it was so hot it felt like August.
Now this week we have had two nights of freezing and below freezing with sorta kinda warmer days.
We are pretty much done with prep-work on the fields we are going to plant. We are letting 60% of the farm set. Water is a very scarce thing this year.
That sounds like it will take away lots of the work—but, no, we have to work harder at keeping the fields we have planted wet.
Oh, well, what we have is still a blessing.

I was taking photos of birds—when this Hawk flew into my view
He/She had lunch in the claws, but what was lunch?
When it flew closer, I saw it was a snake!
WOW! What a neat thing to see (and photograph)

Another humongous job. All that trash had to be hand-lifted out of all the ditches before the water could flow evenly and smoothly onto the farm.
We did it! The work was exhausting and satisfying, all wrapped up in one.
We are there! The ground is terribly dry and extremely hard in spots. Hard enough, it’s shiny.
Although I must say—it did smell good as the water hit the soil — a smell divine.

The wind comes up! Yepper! And the leaves and trash go flying, flying! (and so does our hair, and clothes, and, well, you understand.)
