Three cows from the neighbor across the way showed up!
We corraled them until the owner could come in the morning.
Cows! Gota Love ’em!
“The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others’ burdens, easing others’ loads, and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of the holidays.”– W.C. Jones
Merry Christmas Eve!!
From our hearts to your world,
Terry and Linda
Forward and onward—sometimes a straight path; or there is a bend.
But on we go–singing with the birds and the wind, our hearts without a burden.
Christmas is coming, My Friends!
Not long now! JOY! to the World!

Even though one might be having a bad day, remember this thought: It’s only a bad day, not a bad life.
One sleep and everything is different the next day!

These THINGS are here now!
I must look at the farm from a different angle—can’t get out there and get stomped on.
Yes! They do try to stomp on cats!
Or kick them and watch them fly through the air.
So…nope! No way am I patrolling by the grain bins, the equipment storage area, or the edge of the fields.
Nope, no way.
(Me either!!! Boo Berry)

Every day we go for a walk. Never far, never long, but enough to build back strength.
And every day I look for those winged-friends who light up the sky and send songs to our hearts.

And no matter—- if one is sick or not. We have to keep warm! (And to be honest with you, I think a little physical activity is a good thing—it pushes a body to want to recover—of course, don’t ever overdo it.)
“To keep a warm heart in winter is the real victory.”–Marty Rubin

I love this time of day….just as the sky is starting to lighten—Just before the sunrises
It’s a soft sort of time—(or in the winter a very sharp and cold sort of time)
Then the sun is UP!!! And the world begins! 🙂
Such a joy!
“Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance-a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved.”—Augusta E. Rundel
May you all stay healthy and WELL!!!

Watch the sun (or the moon) sweeping delicately from east to west
Lower your eyes to the ground—looking, looking for those beautiful, wonderful kisses from the earth
Called Heart Rocks.
Finally, I feel well enough to take a wee walk about. Not a long one, but one that helps bring fresh air, peace, and sunshine to my soul and body.
So forth, enjoy the peace, the calmness, and the beauty outside can bring!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
She’s a jumper!!! GRRRR!
After we got her back in and strung another hot wire (with a piece of alfalfa tied onto it), she seems to behaving herself!

Finally! I am better! What a slog that was! YAY!
