And the Rains Came Down, Down, Down —- Sunday, October 25, 2026

Posted on October 25, 2026 by Dayphoto

It started raining. And Raining and Raining.

Steady. No wind. Just rain and more rain.

It’s so wet now, even the underground pockets have filled (YAY)!

But the problem with this is there is no place for the rain to go!

2 inches of Rain! STUNNING!

What an odd year. 100* weather starting in June. Now we’re having rain for days upon end. Yes, there are a few sunny days in between.

I do believe everyone’s prayers are being answered!

They say the rain melted all the snow in the mountains. Still, that is good. It makes the ground wet, ready to hold onto the snow.

I hope that every blessing you are hoping for, and even those you didn’t know you needed, arrive for you today, My Friends!

Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty, TLC Cai-Cai, and Mr. Hobbs on Friday—Helping Mom, BEFORE it Rains AGAIN!!!!, Friday, October 23,2026

Posted on October 23, 2026 by Dayphoto

I’ve been helping Mom.

We’ve got in all the farm stuff that needed to be put away for the winter

I helped Mom bring in loads of firewood

And to feed our beautiful Black Cat, Black Satin

Then Mom mowed the lawn; once done with that, she told me we wait now until it’s time to get rid of the leaves

I showed Mom a heart in the leaves!!!

Guess what — She said that was WONDERFUL!

I did check out the news while helping.

The deer still come into the yard — about 6 of them, I think

We have lots and lots of raccoons…about 8 of them

No wild cats — TLC and Hobbie won’t let them come into the farmyard.

The skunks have gone to the Upper End.

Yep…I’ve been helping!

Here is a tiny secret….but a very important one.

Our God(s) never speak to us — if we do not take the time to listen.

Find the quiet in your life and feed on that gift.

The answers will strike your heart, mind, and soul with the joy of God-given awe!

I hope today hands you many wonderful blessings, My Friends.

The Last of Autumn—Wednesday, October 21, 2026

Posted on October 21, 2026 by Dayphoto

Our weather will turn for good, come Halloween.

Right now we are drying out. We had so much rain that moss started to grow in different places on the farm.

The bugs are still extremely active. Trying to capture every little bit of sunshine and (food) to keep them through the coming winter.

But for now, before the complete turn of the weather. Everything is pretty, pretty, pretty.

May every blessing you are needing and even some you are not aware of needing, find you today, My Good Friends!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

A Day at the Apartment Complex — Tuesday, October 20, 2026

Posted on October 20, 2026 by Dayphoto

This is the make-up wake-up morning of the little birds in the big rosebush

They are talking about starting the day. How the night was. Did you listen to the news?

Coffee time! BREAKFAST!!!!

You know. Just like people do.

10:00 a.m. Everyone has gone to work. No one left. No one even flying back to check on the toaster.

Gone!

As the sun goes down. Everyone is home from the day. Chattering and visiting about all the things seen and accomplished.

Just like people do. Just like people!

May every blessing you are looking for find you today!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

To Bed to Bed Putting the Farm to Bed — Monday, October 19, 2026

Posted on October 19, 2026 by Dayphoto

The ground was dry (enough) sorta/kinda/not really

Terry decieded we had better get out there while we can and put the farm to bed: pick up all the siphon tubes, the dams, close off the pipes and in general get everything ready for when the cows can come in.

(That won’t be for a while yet, maybe in November — late. But if the weather continues to be wet, YAY, we need to get done whatever we can.

Here is Wishing you every blessing there is, Dear Friends.

Autumn Days of Warmth and Gentle (Cool) Breezes Has Returned, Sunday, October 18, 2026

Posted on October 18, 2026 by Dayphoto

Terry and I are waiting for the ground to start looking like this again.

It’s going to take a spell, we just had way too much rain.

But believe me, we are not complaining.

Because once the ground gets firm

we will be back working on this willow branch.

So, not yet! Soon, maybe, but not for a spell.

YAY!

May you experience lots of big and small blessings today, My Friends,

Linda

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty, TLC Cai-Cai, and Mr. Hobbs on Friday—The World is Wet! Wet! Wet!, Friday, October 16, 2026

Posted on October 16, 2026 by Dayphoto

Our world is wet!

It’s been wet

For exactly

FOREVER!

Mom says don’t embellish, TLC.

But, really, it seems like it’s been raining forever! Right, Mom?

Because when you do decide to come in, it’s really nice, isn’t it?

Well, yes, I muttered. I suppose so.

It’s Truly Fall Now —- Thursday, October 15, 2026

Posted on October 15, 2026 by Dayphoto

The Maximillion Sunflowers are a riot of color and sweet pollen for the honey bees

The light is different. Moving toward the Winter Solstice —

where the massive heat of Summer-last is just a memory.

The leaves are starting to fall, but that almost perfect rainbow made my soul sing

We are still shifting wood from the dead limb to the wood pile.

And joy of joys of joy, I found another heart!!! Resting near a brick where a tire must have flung it. Waiting patiently for me. Holding its breath in excitement as I saw it. 🙂
