With Jason’s Help…
I told him I was going to give him all the credit… My blog is UP! <insert BIG SMILEY FACES and BALLOONS!> As far as we could tell, it’s all there… I mean, we didn’t click on every post… but things looked good at first glance. I’ve got a new firewall… and we will be…
The Troubles I’m In…
I’ve been in a bit of trouble… this Red Dirt blog has had various security issues… spam, old outdated themes, fatal errors, all sorts of ugly, UGLY things happening to it. I’ve been on the phone with GoDaddy multiple times. Each time we make progress. Unfortunately, a migration must take place… which can take up…
Gettin’ Ready
The internet has been having some problems. Last night was one of them. I had already fallen asleep on the couch… but I had a cute pic I was going to post quickly. When it was apparent that the internet was floating around on a cloud, or taking a nap, or whatever it does when…
Stolen
Again, I’m babysitting… so I’ll steal a pic from Victoria.
Experience
It seems so strange. Everyone is gathering the cows in the badlands and I’m not riding. It’s odd not seeing the Indian paintbrush blooming, or the bluebells tucked away on hillsides. I’m not there to see the rainwater filled swales or the breeze grab the grass to sway back and forth together. I can’t see…
Ay Eye
Not Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Insemination. We had 150 heifers to do today. Quite a bit for us. Plus the guys wanted to space them out some, which was ok, as we got to take a long lunch! Most of the time in the past, I’ve worked the alley or have done paperwork, but this time…
#TBT: First Day 2.0
First posted May 30, 2008. “Though this week has been a busy one, today’s job was our first day of gathering in our “badlands” pasture, and it has been a long day. Gone are the days when we woke up at 3 AM to eat a hearty breakfast and we were on horseback riding out before…
Forget WW, The Table is DONE!
For a video of my table… here’s a link to my Facebook post… (You don’t have to join Facebook to watch the video… just click on the link!)
Rain
It’s official. We’re now setting on 6.05” of rain for the month. Remember, we’re supposed to get 14” in a year. We kept saying, it’ll make great grass, it’ll be so green, there’ll be wildflowers everywhere. We kept saying it. And saying it. Grateful for the moisture. But, seriously, by the end… all we could…
Inside
All the action was outside today… but I stayed snug (and dry) inside. Yes. 1.50” since this morning. 5.61” FOR THE MONTH. Creeks and draws and every shallow depression running with water. It’s supposed to continue raining for another day. Flood watch in effect. Highways closed due to winter weather conditions and rock slides in…
Two Days of Sunshine
That’s all we’ve had this week, tomorrow’s supposed to be rainy with flood watches in effect. That meant more mowing for me, and finishing up the majority of my gardening. I’m still holding off on transplanting my tomatoes… it froze here just two nights ago, and with the big storm headed our way… well, patience…
