Around the farm...

Hi Everyone!  Happy Wednesday.  I don't have any finished projects to share with you but I thought I'd show you a couple of things here on the farm.  I had my camera outside about a week ago and took some pictures of a couple of things around the farm.
 The big red barn...needs a little paint job on those doors.
 The hay has all been baled and the little square bales have been picked up, but now we are waiting for the large bales to get picked up.  The equipment is sitting out in front of the shop just waiting for the manpower...hopefully in the next day or too.  Then we will be praying for rain!  And since the hay is up, the dogs and I can once again walk in the pasture.  Once the pasture gets up to mid-calf we can no longer walk in it.
 I finally got a good picture of Bailey...it was hot that evening...we went back inside to the comfort of the air conditioning once I took her picture.
 And that same night I took another one of Bo...he's panting too and ready to go back inside.
 My day lilies are late this year.  My grandmother wouldn't have liked this in her yard...she didn't like yellow flowers, but I love them!
And the newest addition to the farm, Miss Kitty.  She showed up one day and has claimed us and the implement shed as her new home.  She's had a rough life...and she's not that old.  She's lost almost half of one of her ears and the tip of the other one.  I'm not sure what happened to her, but when she first arrived both ears were really raw.  She doesn't like the dogs, but seems to like me just fine.  I hope she decides to stick around for a long while.  That's a small look at some things around the farm.  Thanks for stopping by.

Happy day...

Hi Everyone!  Today the plan is to finish up some painting.  But since I'm not ready to show you what I've been up to, I thought I'd share the flowers I picked up for myself yesterday.
I am not a girlie girl...more of a tomboy...but I love cut flowers. 
 I went to town yesterday to pick up some flowers but they'd only let me have a couple of daisy bunches.  Because of the snow storm, they didn't get their flower shipment and they had a bunch of funerals.  I wanted to get the green and purple poms, but they couldn't spare any of them.
 Then when I stopped by Wal-Mart, I saw the yellow roses and just had to get them.  So that's how I ended up with this combination of flowers.  But I really do love them!
They are very fragrant and brighten up the house.  And every girl needs some flowers once in a while, especially on her birthday.  Thanks for stopping by!
