It’s Sunday and we’ve still working on a million and one things.  Gnome asked, “…where’s the fun??”

Oops, these blog posts are supposed to inspire other people to live a farming lifestyle like us.

Gnome’s working on the veranda, pulling out posts and putting them into holes.  I tended to the animals (goosies and guinea pigs mostly) this morning and watered the 40 or so buckets in our garden.  After that I potted some sage and tobacco plants.  I’ve just been clearing a big mess in the old plant nursery where the old posts were located. There are all sorts of crap: some of the stuff is destined for the dump but I have to pick through it all to save the useful stuff…like buckets and planting bags.  I stopped to make lunch (shitake and bitter gourd soup with lentils….still have to eat well despite being busy).  And Gnome’s  still sweating away outside knocking things together.

And now I have to pack some soap and products and….oh, and then there is the Chocolate Festival to prepare for next weekend….

So, I think that it’s time for an afternoon break.  I have to keep in mind that life on a farm comes in cycles of busy and quiet and there’s no in-between!!  The important thing is to pull yourself out of it once in while and remember, we’re supposed to be having fun!!

Okay, goosie time!!  Look, the yellow wellies work…the goosies think that we are one of them!!

Goosie Pile Up:

Hope y’all out there are having a lovely Sunday!!
