I look at the sky- wherever I am, my HEART sings!
The joy/the beauty/of the world just lifts me up body and soul!

When the Air Becomes Stale or the Work Becomes Boring — Wednesday, January 31, 2024
We always seem to have something to do. Something that seems to require both of us in very intense ways. But…sometimes there is really nothing hard going on…and we have grown weary of the house (and work) so off we go—to walk briskly through a few acres, then come back to feeling fresh and ready to proceed with the rest of the day!
Yes, farmers go for walks (hikes) they just do it on their farm! 🙂

The Result of Courtship in the World of Cattle — Tuesday, January 30, 2024
We like to ride out into the midst of the cows—checking the pastures
Checking the fences
And checking on how the Moms-to-be are doing!
I love cows! Don’t you?

What is Unique and Necessary About Winter, Monday, January 29, 2025
Winter is a tad fragile—-even though it doesn’t seem so.
Spring, Summer, and Autumn all depend on Winter and winter’s gift of snow/water and terribly cold and freezing temperatures.
Water—Winter’s Gift to all of us.

Winter, Week 6 —the Season of Coats and Socks and Pants and Gloves —Sunday, January 28, 2024
Winter, ah how each day drags
I do rather draw the line at giving up too many of my summer clothes. 🙂
Yes, my feet are hot! Cold feet I really don’t have,
although, snow will make me wear socks 🙂
And, even though, the songbirds are visiting those of you in the south—at least I have the Sandhill Cranes and the Canadian Geese.
Which really helps…yes it does!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-Sometimes, I Gets Tired, Friday, January 26, 2024
If you knew the work I did
From sun up to sun down—why
There are mice I have to catch
Birds to try and catch—they are too high, but I do try
There is a wealth of information
I try to absorb constantly
Sometimes I have to make sure Boo Berry is safe
I guard the yard from cows getting on MY grass
But I do get tired. So when I do
I head to the house and I
Wait for Mom to open the door (while making sure the sky is clear of danger)
Then it is in I go for a nap!!!

Swaddled in a Bit of Color —- Thursday, January 25, 2024
Back in the time— not so long ago
There was GREEN!
And warmer days
Even now the world is full of news
But before when there was green, there were lots of leaves to run around in that aren’t all matted down.
Yep, Mom and I love Spring, Summer, and Fall colors!
Winter’s colors are a tad drab.

Just Hang’n on the Farm —Wednesday, January 24, 2024
These birds are HUGE—They stand 5 feet tall and are one of the oldest bird species in the world.
And very shy—I have to be more than careful to get a photo of them. If they see me (or the dog) even flicker in their eyesight they all lift up as one and fly away!
I just love having them here. I used to call them as they passed us by in years past: “You are WELCOME here! Just land! Please! Please come!”
Thankfully they are here now!
YAY!

We are Gifted, Tuesday, January 23, 2025
The Sandhill Cranes have gifted us with their delightful presence!
I feel so prosperous having these huge (they are five feet tall) birds living all around us in the fields.
YAY!!!

A Rush of the Wild — Monday, January 22, 2024
While doing my ironing I saw a bit of the sky’s wildness land in the yard in front of me.
Beautiful! Just Beautiful!
BUT———————————-
The girls were out and about having a good time in the yard. I shooed them into the hen house until I was sure that beautiful creature had left for another spot on the farm. 🙂
