Another cattle sale is behind us and I honestly can say it was a tough weekend. It seemed whatever could go wrong did–maybe even times two! I finally crawled into my bed Sunday after 4 a.m. and I was still feeling it by Monday. Luckily, everything was fixed, solved, and […]

Here we are the middle of October and it’s a cattle sale week. I am crossing my fingers for a better week! “Roxee” is doing OK but we made a trip to the vet on Monday because the top of the bandage was slipping. I think she is more upset […]
I hope everyone was able to enjoy a nice long weekend. The weather wasn’t so great but otherwise I was feeling like we all had a lot to be thankful for. I tried to tackle a wee bit of housework but spent most of my time getting equipment put away […]
Well, Oct. 1 is here but I think it feels more like Nov. 1. We really need some sunshine–like a whole month or two of it. I just can’t believe how quickly things went to heck. I think we all were expecting the miserable weather to come and go but […]
Well, I hope all of you who were complaining about the drought and the heat are happy now! Me, not so much! I realize the rain was needed but we didn’t need to have so much at one time and it did not need to drop the temperature so much. […]
What a weekend! Sun, rain, and some crazy winds to dry things up again. At my house, we had just over one inch of rain but I’ve heard some had as much as two inches. Normally that would keep me from cutting the lawn but with the strong winds and […]
Here we go moving right into the middle of September! We always talk about how quickly the month of August disappears but I think the same can be said about September. We have a jam-packed list so the days rush right on by. A good number of farmers are a […]
September has arrived. Although I love fall (if it is warm and dry), I’m still a bit sad that summer is over. Time just passes us by. I just had three days off and I still didn’t accomplish all that I wanted. I always wonder, “Is it just me or […]
Well, we finally got the rain that everyone was wishing for. From what I understand the amount varied along with nasty wind and hail. Over the weekend we received 58mm at EARS and 33mm at home. We also had more wind and hail in Emo and at the sales barn […]
Well, that week went fast. On Friday, we thought we were going to melt at the Emo Fair it was so hot, but it stayed pretty darn decent on Saturday for the 4-H show. We had some large classes so as our show grows like this, it takes a lot […]
It’s the Emo Fair week and I have such a big list, although I’m reminding myself that it is more important for Maddie and Marlee to have exhibits to display–not me. They are crafting like crazy. I’m sure every year we tell ourselves that we will try and not leave […]
What a great long weekend! I realize we all are looking for a bit of rain and a few places received some I’m hearing. I feel confident it will come–I just hope it doesn’t all come at once next weekend during the Emo Fair. The weather forecast looks sunny for […]
