Lots of chickens on the farm, our hens love to be mamas and I let them. (happy face). I did reduce my flock due to crowing complaints...I still have a few roosters to let go of. (sad face)

We added 2 puppies to our nest. Ginger and Lady. They are part Blue Heeler and "terror" (ahahah - they chew on everything!) actually, Rat Terrier. (scared face...ahahha)
This is only a small peek in my year. God has been so good to me in good times and bad. I look foward to connecting with you all in 2021.
Blessings from Ringle, Wisconsin.
Awwww.... I love this Jacky. Seems like I was there for many of your highlights...but, hmmm, somehow missed out on a few.... That greenhouse?? Gah! I love it! There was a time when I would have been thrilled to even have had a make-do version (and yours is SOOOO not make-do! It's beautiful!!), but now, not so much. And two pups?? How did I miss that?? I know you came home one day with 2 bunnies...but 2 puppies???!! You and Al must be going through some serious empty nest syndrome LOL. Wishing you the best and then some in the new year. ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteWell, Al wanted the puppies more than I did. He will be off for a surgery all of January and February, so a good time to train and bond. Yes, we also have 2 bunnies. The windows for the greenhouse were from UWSP when they remodeled the dorms. Al found them on craigslist. He built it around the size of those storm windows. He even made the trusses. I am downsizing my garden each year, but even if I just go out there with a cup of coffee.
