Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

Agreed summer has come and gone quicker than normal. @Country homesteader I heard this winter is going to be brutal. Going to start winter prepping the barn and coop in Sept this year. Thankful we have 90% of our wood cut and stacked already.

Found out my dog has bone cancer in her hip yesterday, vet gave us one month of pain pills with a 2 month estimated time left. I am so sad, my heart broke a bit yesterday. She is 9 and was my Mother's Day gift when she was 6 weeks old.

@Trying2keepitReal - I'm so sorry about your dog's diagnosis. It's hard to lose a family member and my heart goes out to you.

Thank you--I think the hardest part to cope and manage is that she is 100% in her right state of mind, it is just her body is giving up.

First lamb born on the farm, Lucy proudly presents Ono, a ram lamb.

Lucy is a good mom. I opened the gate, the ewes flooded out on the field and went to grazing. Lucy Baa-baaed but they wouldn’t come back and keep her company! She stayed with her lamb, making those low rumbling baa baa baa sounds. After several hours, Lucy led Ono out the gate, about 5 feet, and she grazed. She hasn’t gone any further, keeping Ono close to the safety of the pen.

Aww too cute (˘⌣˘)

Jesus is Lord and Christ 🙏❤️🇺🇸

@CrealCritter Do you have an automatic door for your coop? If so, what kind did you buy?

When does she start? January?
or next fall?

I put a housing deposit down for my oldest's first college choice. She has been accepted to her top 3, and now second tours and final decisions

@Alaskan are you going to be hit by the typhoon remnant storm?

Blah....

We missed red leaf season... way too much rain and overcast. So most of the red just went to muddy brown.

Yellow leaves are now up... but the second those turned some already dropped.....

Blah rainy fall. 🌧

Oh dang - not good! Glad you're getting her to the doc's office.

You - DO NOT GET IT! You may consider that an order, lol. Hope it's nothing contagious and/or serious.

Doc wants her to come in for a COVID test and chest xray today

Motivation. Desperately seeking some this morning.

The wife is sick and I don't know where to start today. Long work week after last weekend's fun.

Maybe some coffee will help

I hope she gets better soon!

I have been dragging for two? Three? Weeks now?

Just can't fully kick this cough and congestion.

They're huge! We used to get cherrystones from Eastern Shore. Maybe size of half dollar.
