Its been awhile

Ok, yeah, its been ages since I wrote. Lots of things have happened, and so far it seems to be for the good.

DH and I have decided to work things out. You read that right. After all of my bitching, ranting, raving, yelling, crying, cussing, stomping, and even leaving for a month, we've decided to work on things. I came back here to the farm to await word on a job. We had time to have some good talks, and even a few yelling matches. But we got it all out, and have decided to start fresh.

I know I've neglected many of my readers (I say that as if I have a plethera) and for that I apologize....wait, no I don't. I was taking care of me, something I haven't done in a long time. I'm not sorry about that.

So now, I have 2 goats, 3 rabbits, 4 chickens, and in June I'll have a new puppy. He'll be a brindle Mastiff and his name is Emmett (after the awsomely strong yet sweet vamp in Twilight). I'm currently tending a 6,000 square foot garden, and am looking for more farm animals. We have plans for building a root cellar, re-doing the kitchen and downstairs bath to make room for a wood burning stove. We found one that will be able to heat the entire house (its 2,500 sq. ft) so thats a good thing. I'd like to learn to spin wool to sell, and have plans to take loads of garden stuff to Farmer's Market.

So there it is in a nutshell. I'm currently working (slowly) on a quilt using blue jeans that no longer fit us anymore. The ones we don't use or cut up will be donated to the Salvation Army.

Thats all I've got for the moment.
