    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Thanks! I was glad too - until she started barking and agitating the other dogs, lol. But, that's who she is, and I love her in spite of her big mouth! I was tired last night and went to bed at 8pm. Couldn't fall asleep though until close to 10. DH had a low blood sugar episode at 2 and I...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Went to bad way too early last night and as a result - got up waay too early this morning. Is 2am really morning? Feels more like the middle of the night if you ask me. So, I got up in the middle of the night and fully expect a nap or two to happen today! More coffee is in order...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Whew - yesterday was a day! The good part was that the Texans won AGAIN! That's 6 games in a row and a total of 9 wins for the season - so far. They are kicking butt and taking names! The bad part was that I lost one of my dogs. Lost as in lost - not dead! She was missing for about 10...

    That is just miserable! We're at 30 - first freeze of the season but nothing like single digits! Hope it warms up for ya'll. Coffee is much appreciated this mornign!

    Yay! I found the gift that I thought I'd lost. Embarrassed to say it was on the dining room table the whole time. Might've helped that I cleaned a bunch of other gifts off of the table and voila! Rain in the forecast for the next couple of days. Following that we could have the first...

    Got up to heavy fog - again. Glad I don't have to drive anywhere in this mess! I'll enjoy my coffee while I wait for it to burn off a little. Outside chores will follow...

    What's for dinner?

    Chickens are working overtime so - ham, onion and cheese frittata.

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Failed again...dogs win and I give up. Been dealing with Christmas gifts. Got most of 'em wrapped and labeled. I needed to remember everything I had and who it went to, lol. Unfortunately, I seem to have lost, misplaced or thrown away a gift for GS's girlfriend. ARGH - money down the...

    What's for dinner?

    If I were next door I'd love it! Not terribly hungry - could use sleep more than food right now. Decided that if I do eat anything later it will likely be a sweet potato. DH is fixing himself a snack plate - likely kippers or smoked oysters with some crackers, cheese, olives and pickled...

    I appreciate that! Hopefully soon I'll have a victory to report - but I'm not holding my breath. Sad when the dang dogs outsmart me at every turn...:he

    What's for dinner?

    I've been busy and I'm tired so not very motivated to cook. That means I have no idea what we'll have but whatever it is will be coming from the pantry. I've got a bunch of canned up meals that are ready to go. Heat and eat!

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Weird night of interrupted sleep - but I guess it's better than nothing! Oh boy - looked at breeding dates this morning and babies can happen before I know it....and if I don't get busy they'll be here before I'm ready. Need to work on kidding pens and stock up on shavings. Guess I can use...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Woke up to heavy fog and coolness. Our temps are really moderate compared to what a lot of ya'll are dealing with. We're up to 51 at 8am. Likely headed for mid 70's. Can't really complain about that. So far, Missy has stayed in the pasture instead of shirking her duties in the back yard...

    What's for dinner?

    Chicken thighs - recipe is loosely based on Tuscan Chicken. Made a couple substitutions but it's looking pretty good. Roasted brussels sprouts (thanks FJ!) and mashed potatoes. It'll take us a couple days to eat up the potatoes because we each only have a half-cup, but sometimes the carbs are...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Brrrrrr! Nope - too cold! We were 38 at wake-up and we're up to 64. Very pleasant if you're in the sun, but because of a strong breeze it's a little chilly in the shade. However - compared to a lot of the country - I'll take it!

    Still riding the high of victory, lol! Been out this morning and took care of a couple little projects. Missy, one of the LGD's, has been a bad dog lately. She keeps jumping the fence and coming to stay on the back porch. I love the girl and feel very safe with her guarding the door - but...
