It's Been A Challenging Week

It has been quite a week....it wasn't quite a hurricane that caused the power cut that caused the surge.. that caused the modem to blow which subsequently caused us to go offline...(which incidentally nearly blew my mind !) It wasn't a blizzard, our local friendly smiling weather forecasters happily advised us it was going to be a dry day so fluffy snow flakes at 9am were a little bit of a surprise.....by 9pm, with our little world covered in a pristine coat of not very dry snow and the temperature down to 29 degrees C we were less than amused. I will remind myself to remember this week when we are complaining about the obsessive heat in the Summer....
Scruffy and Scrappy our two little "orphan" lambs have "got with the programme and the growl of the big Chevi truck arriving in the barnyard is the signal for the eternally hungry twosome to raise the barn roof, loudly anticipating the arrival of two warm bottles of frothy lamb formula. Both lambs are thriving....life is good.
We have a new farm friend, a young neighbour (English spelling) has asked if she can spend some time with our four legged family and we are happy to share. It is a wonderful thing to be able to watch her building her confidence with the horses, loving up beautiful Bella and May, the Jersey cows and spending time with our overly affectionate flock of sheep. Happy to have you on the team Lani.
As always, our thanks to Erin and Jim....love you both.
Take care, keep safe and warm. M
