Who would have thought that someday I would be living on a farm and blogging about it! If my grandma Hay could only know about this, she'd shake her head in disbelief.
Well, let's get to it...
The weather is really cold today. It's 22 degrees, sunny, but windy. It's supposed to get colder as the day goes on with a low in the single digits. It's a good thing I went to Rural King last night and got a new heat lamp for my chickens. Their waterers will definitely have some ice in them tomorrow.
Not much on the agenda for today. I've already been to town and mailed all the tax stuff for my husband's business and ran a few errands. After posting this I'll probably start laundry and clean up the house.
I'm currently taking care of our cat Joe. He's been under the weather lately and was at the vet yesterday. No diagnosis. Just upset stomach and wants to vomit. (Yuck!) But, he seems to be on the mend.
Roscoe
A good walking buddy and awesome frisbee catcher! Life cut short by a brain tumor.
Tuffy
If ever there was a candidate for Dog Heaven, it would be Tuff. Tuff was put to rest December 7, 2012. At almost 14 years old, he threw the longevity curve for dogs of his breed-makeup and size. He battled 2 types of cancer and Cushing's Disease as well as arthritis. Faithful to the end and never grumpy, depite the constant care and nagging from me. Always the protector, gentleman and companion--you will be sorely missed by all who had the opportunity to know you.
Cranky Thomas
Ever wonder why it's called "Life On CT Farm"? The horse you see in the pictures is Cranky Thomas, a registered quarter horse gelding. He was born May 5, 1980 in Galion, Alabama and passed away August 3, 2004 on CT Farm--his farm. He originally belonged to my husband, but I adopted him and I think he adopted me. We competed together in contest classes at local horse shows. But, an old injury finally slowed him down and I retired him in 2000. He was a loving and patient being that I completely trusted and admired. There will never be another like him, never. He meant so much to me that I named our farm after him as well as my company, Cranky T. LLC. He's gone now, but is still with me and now you.
