Ok… so I kind of went crazy taking pictures this morning.
We got just a dusting of snow last night, and it was exactly the right amount and consistency (not too slushy) to preserve the tracks of the wildlife we share our land with.
As I headed out to the barn this morning to feed, I was totally […]

There has been a song playing on the radio lately that, when I really listen to it, brings tears to my eyes… It’s called “I Danced with Cinderella” and it’s about a little girl growing up, and a father being wise enough to recognize that children grow up fast and you need to take time for […]

My kids have been participating in Special Olympics for a little over a year now. They (we) are part of a wonderful S.O. team and they’ve bowled, swam, played softball, and now they are playing basketball. It has been such a wonderful experience for them!
Yesterday we went to a Special Olympics basketball clinic with the […]

We’re having very weird weather here today…
When I woke up the wind was blowing a gale and by the time I got back inside from feeding the goats, it was snowing… tiny hard little flakes, driven so hard by the wind that you could almost hear them hitting the north side of the house.
Then it stopped…. […]

It feels like things are finally getting back to normal here. R is doing great, no more headaches, back, or neck pain… her shoulder is healing quickly (she can use the arm a little with no problems although if she overdoes it, it gets sore again) and her face is also healing well… she’s looking […]

Well I think my girl is really on the mend. She fussing about keeping her arm in the sling, fussing about taking the ibuprofen, and fussing about not being able to ride.
She was very happy though, spending time with Chance this morning. She says she’s afraid of other horses but not Chance… I’m thinking about seeing […]

R looked worse yesterday, but overall I can tell she’s starting to mend.
Here’s her poor beat up face…. it was a lot more swollen yesterday.
But at least she had her smile back!
She was having a lot of pain in her shoulder, so I got her into the pediatrician right away (at the ER they just […]

I’ve been trying to think of a good title for this post, something that kind of sums up the day, but I’m coming up empty. So this will have to do…
We spent another day in the ER today, and I’m counting my blessing this evening that my youngest “chick” is home, safe and sound, and sleeping […]

Well, I guess it’s time to start posting again… I’m feeling recharged again, and less like I just don’t have time for one more thing! (like blogging)
In an effort to pull some order out of the chaos we’ve had around here lately, and using some DD funding I stumbled upon, I’ve been busily revamping our […]

Ok, ok, ok… I guess it’s been so long since I’ve posted that people are starting to wonder what’s up.
It’s tempting to say that we were abducted by aliens and after six harrowing, yet interesting days (of which I have no memory of, of course), we have just now been returned to our simple, yet peaceful, existence […]
