This blog has led to me to great people over the years… and that’s the part I like the best! Putting myself out to another group of followers (besides Blog Readers) led me to Twitter (and in case you haven’t noticed a NEW Facebook page for Red Dirt In My Soul is in the works!)….
Q-utie, QT, Cutie!
I wasn’t going to use this. Then I was. Then I wasn’t. Then I looked at him again… And I just can’t resist! Besides, you don’t want to hear about my computer frustrations and cleaning my pantry which is all that occupied my day today… This is MUCHMUCH better! Here’s my Q-utie! (QT?) CUTIE! Cutie…

Question and Answer January 2012 VLOG!
I’ve made it a habit (December 2011 not included!) to post a Question and Answer session at the beginning of each month. I’ve done that for about 2 years. Never have I done this. Tonight I answer your questions IN PERSON. Yup. A true VLOG ENTRY. <gasp!> Not a Minute Movie or working dog movie,…
Vintage Grand Lady
Remember the Grand Lady? How she made the trip from the root cellar to my house… perhaps reclaiming a corner she once knew? And I put her in a fancy dress and touched up her makeup… and surrounded her with glitter? Well… she enjoyed the holidays… but it was time to get back to reality….
Wow.
Yeah. I did it. I’ve been wanting to do this… for my anniversary present… and tonight I actually pushed the button! What do you think? It’s kind of scary… leaving my old format behind, but soon I’ll have been doing this for FIVE, yes, FIVE YEARS! It was time for some fresh paint! There’s some…
Changes
Well, it’s quiet here. No pack ‘n’ play in front of the door… No bouncy chair in the corner… No baby bottles on the counter… No warm little one to snuggle with… They’ve headed back to Laramie… and it is amazing how quickly we settled into the routine of having three more people in this…
Wrap and a Hooey
I had porkchops and cream of mushroom soup in the crockpot, the last of my home made frozen corn defrosting, a big salad made and chilling in the fridge, and baked potatoes wrapped and waiting for Megan to throw them in the oven at 11. I was off to help with the bangs vaccinating. The…
Christening and Contest Winners
We weighed our heifer calves today, and since the day was so warm, I had a helper for a few hours in the afternoon. Yeah… forget me (bad photo) but look closer! What a cutie! This is the cutest outfit to weigh calves in, I think I’ve ever seen! PLUS… He was cowboy christened today……
Wordless Wednesday – “Friends”
For my not quite so Wordless Wednesday… a poem! **** On a dark Wyoming hill sits a pump jack all alone. Red lights shimmer upon it and give a sense of home To a tiny deer perched high upon its glowing back. An unlikely team of spirits in the deep and endless black. Together they…
Root Cellar
To all my new readers, welcome! Glad you came on over… hope you enjoy getting some Red Dirt on your boots! This blog tends to be: part ranchwork part Wyoming part crafts part D-I-Y part dog part family part cow part horse part wildlife and part photography! Fair warning: There is no rhyme nor reason…
This Setting
Wow. I kept thinking today was Tuesday. Even after watching RFD-TV’s Rose Parade coverage… while babysitting Quinlan. (Yes, Marilyn, I saw those 100 palominos in honor of Roy Rogers… Made me tear up… I loved that guy!) Somehow, only half of the Christmas ornaments are off of the tree. My house is still a wreck…
