Kitty Centinel

Most folks know we don't own a cat! But we have a barn that has no mice at all. A neighbor has a siamese cat who likes to sleep in the window of our hayloft...it drives our dogs nuts!

It's got no fear as long as our dogs are in the run and the cat is not.

Bambi's kin

Every time my mother comes to visit, we tell her she will get to see the deer that live in our woods. And every time she goes home without seeing any deer. Last week, the dogs went nuts at the door to the back deck...when I went out to see what was making them crazy, some of the deer family were grazing near the burn pile. I got the trusty camera and now here's proof that we have deer on our property, Mom!

Wicked Weather

We sometimes get some wicked weather here in the Ozarks. It's not always easy to tell that the weather is going to change. But on Saturday, it was easy to see that we were in for some fierce winds and rain. This monstrous shelf cloud began to slide in from the north about 7:30 Saturday nite and left quite a bit of moisture in its wake.

Goodness, Time Flies!!!

I can't believe it's been so long since I last blogged...no excuse except time! It simply flies out the door! And what have I been doing? Sewing, knitting, sleeping, eating, and then turning around and doing it all over again.

John loves his new job! He is still on probation but I figure they are going to keep him on since they bought him tools earlier this week. And they are talking about sending him to a school in Georgia in August. Of course, considering the weather in Georgia in August, he may be being punished!

The weather here is heating up along with the rise in humidity. Thank goodness for a/c! I'm off to the studio to sew...maybe a Christmas wallhanging will cool me off!
