Playing catch-up
I wish I knew what lies ahead of us, weather-wise, on the farm. The quick scene shift from summer to winter (apparently) has left me a bit breathless. I guess I wish I had been let down a bit more gently...or at least with more time on my hands and/or less work to do.
A city girl who realized upon the birth of her daughter that life is entirely too short to spend on 1/12th of an acre, she now digs up her weeds (usually with a pick) on 5.
