Country Living

Yesterday turned out to be a much prettier day than forecast. I spent a lot of time on Satchmo's new living quarters and on building my raised beds.

Last night, around 8 pm, I thought I'd walk out onto the deck to see what it was like outside. I startled two tiny birds who were hanging out in the rafters of the deck ceiling, and one of them started flying into the window out of fright and confusion.

I reached my hand out, and somehow caught the tiny bird. He was very calm as I held him and walked over to the railing, so I could release him out in the yard, so he would not get confused and try to fly into the window pane.

I have never felt so close to nature as I do now that we live out here. Every morning, I wake up and look out and thank God for making such a beautiful Earth.

I love this time of year when I go out to the family farm. The new baby calves are so cute playing in the pasture. That's about the only time they are cute, as I remember it. Ha!

I too thank God for this wonderful earth he has created for us.
I applaud you for all the work you have been doing in creating your farm.
WAY TO GO GIRL!

Just, Awww! for the birdy.

Now, the rest of this is a comment on yer bullying post, which is too old for comments.

I feel for ya, Ma'am, I really do. I have been in the situation of doing good work, yet accused of doing bad work by socially facile bosses. And had the wrong-doing accusers exonerated, and my self punished.

Ma'am, I suspect you of having autistic tendencies.

That's not a bug, that's a FEATURE!

(except in the minds of the silly Bandar-Log)
