I’ve had coffee and been outside to do chores. Teaching the kids in Sunday school this morning. Preacher’s wife and I switch out every 3 months, they are out of town today, so I’m taking the class. Typically they rope somebody into teaching the kids and they are stuck with it for years. I took...

I see I didn’t post my gift from middle granddaughter! When I bought this place, there were 2 ceiling fans in the house. I bought new ones for the whole house and tossed the old ones. But I saved the fan blades for future crafts. Middle granddaughter wanted them and I gave them to her. She...

Boone is outstanding because you are outstanding. All the animals you’ve trained over the years comes down to Boone. All the experience you have is poured into Boone. You didn’t know what was coming at you like a freight train, but God knew. He prepared you by providing fantastic experiences as...

Drank my 2 cups of coffee, waiting on daylight so I can go sort sheep. Gonna separate ewe lambs to take to auction on Saturday. Nearest decent auction for sheep is 3 hours away. The best one is 5 hours away. I’m smack dab in the middle of cattle country. The cattle auctions around here pretty...

I roofed my house 2 years ago in July. On Saturdays I had help until noon. During the week I did prep work, replacing plywood decking, underlayment, radiant heat barrier, 2x4 lath strips for the metal, had to quit by noon or have a heat/humidity stroke. I had text buddies that I checked in with...

That’s East Texas too! People think all of Texas is rocks and desert, not true! East Texas is HOT and dripping with humidity. My joke is, Texas is good practice if you’ve been bad in life and expect to go to He// when you die!

Welcome from East Texas! I’m glad you found us and joined the party.

I love your turkeys! And they are raising poults for you! Thanksgiving dinner? Your garden is so neat and free of weeds. I moved 3 years ago and haven’t planted a garden here. But I do have……..(drumroll) TWO, yes! Count them! TWO tomato plants! And a few cucumber plants! Hahaha!

I don’t mind getting old until I look in the mirror. Then I wonder Just who is THAT?

Using that analogy, I guess gardening season covers all 4 seasons at my house. And I only have 2 tomato plants and a few cucumber plants! Not enough, so I expanded my seasons to cover the sheep. Maybe I should count them…….Nah

On my second cup of coffee. Picking up my granddaughters today, for a week. We’re gonna have some fun!

For starting seeds indoors in the spring, 1. Need a big black dog. The way this works is let dog outside. Dog comes in, lays in floor and dirt falls out of his coat in the floor. 2. Sweep up dirt. Black hair aerates the dirt, an extra bonus provided by the dog. 3. Place dirt and hair...
