Adventures...

My Web site’s been up for almost two months now and I’m still not living the life of a rockstar. Hmmm. Last week, I successfully chased a bull and two calves out of my driveway and back into their pasture; dragged a billy goat by his horns back into his fenced area; and herded the billy goat’s “wife” and baby not back into their pasture, but instead all around the yard. Then I de-skunked my dog, Reg. Then I de-skunked my dog, Reg. Then, once more I de-skunked my dog, Reg. And finally, I encouraged a tiny bird trapped in our fireplace to go back where it came from. This is all learning for me. I grew up in a small town, not a farm. This is the first time I’ve ever had to chase a bull and drag goats, let alone de-skunk a dog. Some of my friends who grew up with me are laughing at my recent experiences because I’m so not a farm girl. I, too, am laughing because I’m so not a farm girl.
