A very happy Mother’s Day to all my readers, those with their own kids, those that have stepped up to mother those kids that need it, and those who just simply love children for who they may become. I spent the day working outside… Fighting with my riding lawnmower… and losing… Switching to my little…
Cody Horse Sale
The horse sale was back in Cody. We’ve gone to it off and on… Panama, Winchester, and Zip have all come from there. Daniel and Tess were excited to go, Vernon was wishy-washy for quite a while… he could get some things done, but he could haul up his four wheeler to the mechanic to…
More Branding Pics
Sorry. Came home from the kids’ spring concert last night and fell asleep and even though that happens a lot of nights before I blog… I just couldn’t write a post last night! Just couldn’t think or function… So no post last night! I moved books at the library today to make way for new…
Wordless Wednesday: “Lines”
Couldn’t decide which one was best! Black and white, or the original… yes, no filter! The light was right! For “Lines” puzzle go HERE.
Day… Excited
Wyoming is reverting to winter for a bit… winter storm warnings are out, though right here it remains simply a cold rain. Nasty weather makes me stay inside… inside lets me work on… the table! No, it’s not finished, but, holy cow! I love this little thing! I’m working on the sides now… and there…
And There Are Cookies
We helped Brandon and Megan brand their little herd tonight, just an hour’s worth of work, but a chance for me to take my first photos of a branding. As usual, I also had the “real” job of branding, so my little camera did a few fast pics before I crammed it in my pocket…
Spring Work
The guys are busy plowing, discing, and fertilizing the fields… it’s magical how we instantaneously turn into farmers… Well, I have my farming to do as well! The garden is now clean and tilled… next I’ll see what compost/straw/manure I can find to add to it. I’ve debated about moving my tomato watering buckets… still…
Day Plus
I work outside… in my house… then I have to sit down and work on the table for a bit! This thing is irresistible! I’m seeing if I like the rather translucent paint versus just a solid coating. So far I’m happy with it, though I will add more shading and depth to the objects…
Girls and Their Toys
Granted, I like jewelry. I like crafts. I like coats, but other clothing is … eh. I have multiple pairs of cowboy boots, but other shoes are… eh. My house is fairly well decorated the way I want… except that blasted downstairs bathroom! I can look through a garden catalog and wish… but I’m not…
#TBT : House Double Take
This house photo (circa 1940’s?) (and, yes, I posted this a couple of weeks ago) compared to a fairly close image taken last week… The perspective is a tad bit off. The house has been added on to and is now covered in siding. The corner of the sod roof bunk house can be seen…
Wordless Wednesday : “Mountain Fox”
To play the jigsaw puzzle of Mountain Fox, go here.
Day Somethingorother
I have still been working on my woodburned table… but keeping track of how many days I’ve worked on it has gone by the wayside. I decided to add a quote around the edges as well… “You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.”…
