It's the Least Wonderful Time of the Year


I've decided to post more honestly here. Not that my posts are ever dishonest, but you certainly get a one-sided view of farm life.
A mother once told me to be sure I don't post graphic or sad things because she shows the blog to her children.
But the un-fun times are real, and knowing about them is only fair.
So here's a pic to sum up the impending Arctic weather and our desperation for the sun and her warmth.
We've ("we" in this sense meaning my kids and my husband) been scrambling to get extra hay to the horses and cows and shoring up all of the animals' shelters for the predicted frigid weather.
(Be glad you get to look at unhappy Kate during chores. It was either this or a photo of the broiler chicken who died under the horse trailer.)

  1. We like any picture of Katie. Hope its not to cold. I won't tell you what the weather is here :).

  2. It was cold when I took the photo, really cold overnight, warmer today, and the real arctic weather is coming. But the winter has been mild up till now, so I'll try not to whine too much.
