Life as of late

 Hey folks, I am back!

I have been busy lately, but I have now found a quiet moment to scribble a little bit!

To begin with, I have been finally finishing up with my mid-term exams for my Senior year. I scored much better than I had hoped, 92% in Theology, 83% on my Civics, and my Business Math, well, I haven't got the score yet. It should be around those other scores though!

Next, we have bought a new dog named Doc Hudson! He is a Full-blood black Labrador, to be the husband for Miss Rosie. he is a wonderful dog, with a great attitude, and really good with the little kids. He is an awesome dog, listens well, and is very social. They get along pretty well, and Doc wails and howls all night when they get separated. It's pretty funny, but also gets pretty old. The first night we had him home, we put him in our mudroom to get used to things. About 2:30 a.m., I woke up to eerie moans and wails of anguish. It sounded terrible! I literally jumped out of sleep as soon as I heard it! I went downstairs, turned the light on, and told him to be quiet. Not that it did anything, he just wagged his tail and looked hopeful! I went back to bed, I am not an early morning person like that!!!

He was right in his element though when I got back from helping out at a cleaning job, trotting around in the basement, playing with the kids. He even does tricks as well. So he is a pretty cool dog.


Soooo.... I finally got to go driving in the car I am buying in the spring. It is a Jeep Liberty Sport, and it drives like an ATV. It was so fun. We took it down the dirt roads near our farm, and it was really fun.


And now to the last thing that is on my mind. The Electors voted yesterday, 303 votes for Biden. Sounds depressing, but I will not give up hope. Christ is King, and nothing will happen that He does not allow or will. He loves us, and will not abandon us. So pray like your life depends on it. Your freedom does, and Biden needs many prayers. We need to pray without ceasing for his conversion.

Until next time!

God Bless!

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering (for he is faithful that hath promised) 

Hebrews 10:23, Douay Rheims Version

Who we are...

Way, way far out, in what many people consider the middle of nowhere, is a tiny rural town, that has a bowling alley and a post office. And little further in, down a small country road, across the old train tracks, is our farm. It's the prettiest place around, especially in the summer, with all the gorgeous wild flowers growing, and new calves kicking their heels in the deep clover. There is ten acres on our small Sugar N Spice Farm, all being put to good use! My parents raise Hereford cattle for beef for our table, and sometimes other people as well. We also currently have two Great White hogs, Laurel and Hardy, who are about 350 pounds each, and they are going to the butcher tomorrow. Yay! All that delicious pork! We also have three dogs, Rosie, a Chocolate Lab, and Cookie and Pepper, two little Border Collie/Rat Terrier cross puppies. All three dogs are constantly together, swimming, fighting, playing, and of course, wrecking the flower beds...☹️ But, before I go into further de

Fall, the best time of the year!

 Yes, fall is finally here, with the gorgeous colors, crinkly leaves, and the crisp, smoky smell in the air! The crisp, smoky smell is my favorite part, I love it!    The only sad part about fall, is that now, all our summer recreation outside is slowly coming to a halt! We just dug a pond over the Fourth of July weekend, and by the time it filled considerably enough to swim in, we only got a couple swims in before the weather got too chilly!  That, and the campfires! I love the campfires at night in summer, and roasting marshmallows, and even hot dogs tasted good over a campfire! But, there are lots of awesome things about fall too, that I will miss when winter rolls around!  One of my favorite things about fall is the walks on the bike trail nearby, with the leaves falling all around us as we walk, and the crinkly leaves crunching beneath my feet. And the colors of the trees, as each one of them turn a different shade, creating a gorgeous view! We even attempted to make pumpkin roll,

Fall on the Farm

 Life on the farm completely changes in fall just like the leaves do. Clarabelle and Dolly Pippi gets some lunch Hunting season is here, our gardens have been tilled under, manure has been spread in the east field, and soon, the smoky smell of burning leaves will fill the air, and a few more trees will be cut down to fuel our hungry firebox. Hunting is a favorite time of year for all the male members of our family, and, for everyone else too, for there isn't anything better than fresh venison back straps for dinner! My Mom likes it, not because of the venison tasting good, because she doesn't care for it, but because it always fills the gap in our freezer when beef starts running low! On Saturday my Dad shot a small doe, but didn't end up killing her. The bolt broke off in her, lodged somewhere in between her shoulder blades, and we found the blot, but no signs of distress, or a carcass. She will heal up, and her ribs will grow around the bolt, and she will live another day
