He must have a headache! (pic a day)

Tap... Tap... Tap...
I could hear him all morning, but never could find him.
I looked and looked...
Tap... Tap... Tap...

Then suddenly he appeared in my lens.
A happy little red-head.

He was so busy looking for his lunch.
Tap... Tap... Tap...

I wish I had his determination!

He's Gone... again (pic-a-Day)

The Man-of-My-Dreams is on a plane for Amsterdam.
Then he gets on another one to Istanbul Turkey,
Then one more to Kazakhstan.

For 28 more days working far away from the farm.

Not only did my writing screech to a halt while he was home (I had other things to do with my hands, thank-you-very-much).
But my poor camera has been sitting untouched for a few weeks!

I've decided to post one picture a day for the next month.
I hope each picture will bring forth a blog post too!

The plane that carried my Honey away from me is Pic no. 1.

Stay tuned for more glimpses into my life and farm...
This might get interesting...

Makes Me Happy

Collecting still warm eggs, laid by "the girls" each morning...
Yes, it annoys me that they refuse to use the perfectly safe and fluffy nest boxes to lay their eggs...
Yes, I wonder why they can't all lay in the same area instead of in the boat, the tool bench and under the Gardenia bushes.


The joy and satisfaction of feeding my family eggs from our own hens,
Knowing exactly what they ate,
Knowing exactly what they did NOT consume,
Makes me very VERY happy!
