End of another week … plus an edit

Posted on January 29, 2017 by Ann Schwartz • 4 Comments

Couldn’t think of anything pithy to call this week or entitle this post. It has been a satisfactory few days since I spoke to you. Have been just doing what I love, and gettin’ by just fine. Here are a few of the beautiful beings I cared for, talked to, or groomed this week. This … Continue reading →

This morning I had started the coffee by 7 and was out the door shortly after. I opened the doggy door for Seltzer and Maya (they get “tucked in” late at night or they might stand outside and bark). I refreshed bedding, replaced water, and fed those who get a morning feeding: it’s only a … Continue reading →

Today was a good day, rather productive if I may say so. Yesterday I mostly binge-watched a series on Netflix, ‘Trapped’: it’s a murder mystery set in Iceland, mostly subtitled. I was riveted and the show kept me guessing until the end, wondering how the plots and subplots were connected. I couldn’t leave the tv … Continue reading →

Small loss on the acreage today … I discovered one of my chickens dead. I am sure this is the hen “Belinda”, though I have never committed their names to memory. I LOVE my biddies, but I hadn’t noticed anyone ill or suffering; I guess it was just an avian heart attack or something. The … Continue reading →

We’re having another deep freeze. In decades gone by, it was not uncommon to have temperatures of -40 for many days, even weeks. Now when the thermometer shows -25 or -30C, we feel hard done by. Have been out to visit the chickens, of course. They seem content enough, in their cluckingham palace with a … Continue reading →

The temperature was dropping last night, so I made sure that the dogs got a trip outside quite late, about 11 pm, so that I could close all the doggy doors to maintain coziness in the kennel building overnight. The majority of dogs are well house-trained and well-adjusted and in good health. They are usually … Continue reading →

Happy New Year!

Posted on January 1, 2017 by Ann Schwartz • Leave a comment

This evening we are heading into 2017, and though Gary and I plan a quiet night at home, watching television, I’d say we kicked that off in style: The photos ended up “out of order”, but that’s okay, I guess, because I served all the items at once, and we ate them the same way. … Continue reading →
