I finally have a minute to write. We added not one, but TWO horses to the farm this fall. Jolly came first but his story will have to be for another day. Let me introduce you. Rose is what she goes by, but Rhilyn has chosen “A Golden Rosebud” to be her show name. She... Continue Reading →
Sometimes when I wake up before the sunrise I'll force myself up instead of rolling back over and 100% of the time I do not regret it. It's been blazing hot and humid the past couple of weeks so I took advantage of the cooler morning (it was 65*F) and went for a walk. It... Continue Reading →
Sometimes our subconscious takes over; we find ourselves doing something before we even realized we made a decision to do so. I find this particularly true when I'm outside whether it be to put the kiddo on the school bus, doing chicken chores, or working in the flower beds... It happened most recently this morning....

I've written about it in the past so this probably isn't the first time you've heard it from me... Whenever I'm feeling stressed, anxious, sad,... Continue Reading →
Anxiety can be crippling, can't it? I'm going to admit something to you and it isn't easy to say. When I was a young adult I used to think anxiety was just a frame of mind. Something people should be easily able to snap out of. After all, happiness is a choice. Right? I couldn't... Continue Reading →
This March I wrote a series on hatching eggs and posted on my instagram account - 1 post per day - sharing what knowledge I have on hatching fertile chicken eggs in an incubator. The series is finished now but I want to share it to my blog, where all the information can be found... Continue Reading →
Good morning Fivemile Creek Farm One of my favorite times of the day is dawn, just before sunrise. Waking up before the sun is energizing. For me there's something magical about it. In my mind, I picture all the forest fairies waking for the day as the vegetation comes to life when the sunbeams rest... Continue Reading →
