(The title of this post should be read in the clipped British accent of Giles from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.”)
SO much happening here at the Green Goddess Gardens lately. I just haven’t felt like actually writing about it. So I’ll do a quick list.
1. Our family bought a car. After being without one for over 2 years. And there was much rejoicing.
Tinted windows so we can pick our noses at red lights.
2. I started running. Barefoot.
So. Much. Fun.
3. My Uncle Billy died.
Little Boy kept our spirits up in the hospital as family sat with Uncle Billy in his last days. We will miss him.
4. We had the flu for 2 weeks.
We took lots of naps.
5. The Herban Cowboy built a fence for the chicken yard out of old pallets.
Ooo so fancy!
6. One of our new chickens got sick and died.
The new girls. Lucy is the redhead. Ethel is the recently deceased. RIP sweet girl.
7. We cut down and chopped up 4 trees in our backyard.
“He’s a lumberjack and he’s okay…”
8. I read “Animal, Vegetable, Miracle” and can’t stop thinking about fresh, local food.
Wild onions found while foraging. Dirty and stinky and yummy!
9. I knit the Herban Cowboy a Doctor Who scarf for his birthday.
Replica of the 4th Doctor’s scarf from the episode “The Ark in Space.” Because that’s how we nerd.
10. We got a new (to us) computer, compliments of one of my beautiful aunts.
So big and shiny.
11. I got back on a horse for the first time in 6 years.
You will never be as happy as I am in this picture.
