Every little bit, I’m trying to squeeze in some crafting. ‘Tis the season, dontchya know? I’m on a mercury glass kick right now… Those old, mottled, silvered/mirrored glass objects… not the real stuff, I probably couldn’t afford those. Just a remake. I took some old vases and bottles… and some of Krylon’s cool mirror spray…
Arteest
Well, it made me smile, just because I’ve done the exact same thing… While I munched away on my hamburger, Quinlan began to draw the sales ring. He did a pretty good job of it, too. There’s two cows in the ring, and he’s drawn in the ring men behind their safety barriers… plus three…
Sale
After dropping my two dogs off at the vet’s for another romantic appointment, we flew down to Riverton, Wyoming. It was sale day for some of our yearling heifers. It all hinges on three minutes of auctioneering… but there’s all that time waiting for your cattle to show up in the ring. I brought in…
#TBT: Young Daddy
With the possibility of some acupuncture in Lucas’ future now that the Good Doctor’s partner is certified for it, I thought I’d revisit Lucas’ one and only session way back in 2009. The video is here if you’d like to see it. The next post caught my eye, and I just had to share a…
Wordless Wednesday – “Soft Winter Light”
Soft Winter Light
Fingers and Paws
I’ve talked about it more than a few times on here… I mean, I live on a ranch… we raise animals of all sorts. The guys are headed to a bull sale tomorrow, as a matter of fact. We have bulls and stud colts and roosters and the occasional tom cat. I’ve talked castration and…
Party Time
Spent pretty much all day doing last minute preparations for the Ten Sleep Library’s Open House and Silent Auction. We had wanted to make window silhouettes, and I had stayed up until midnight last night drawing and cutting out some Grinchy figures. That meant a lot of taping and climbing on ladders today. We had…
Back In It… Tuesday
We knew a snowstorm was coming, and sure enough, it’s snowing outside. BUT! All my Christmas lights are up and functioning… the last of the toys and lawn supplies tucked away for their long winter’s nap… the dogs are nestled under the pine tree, as usual, foregoing the insulated dog house, and unknowingly passing time…
Ha!
Ha! Finally! I *did* accomplish something today! I changed up some photos on my calendar at the last minute (thank you, Facebook followers!), and my 2018 calendar is now up for sale on lulu.com. Buy it using this link. They will print it and mail it directly to you. See that teeny tiny “preview” under…
Calendar Promise
The guys do various projects according to the weather and if it froze the night before. We are in that uncertain state where you can go anywhere in your pickup so long as the ground remains frozen. If or when it warms up enough to thaw, the roads turn into a slimy mess that will…
Some
Some of this… Some of that… Teaching this… And getting ready for this! Yeah. Whew.
