Hello from Busytown!

Sorry guys - I made yet another promise that I have not kept. We are getting snow here off and on making it SO difficult to get our crops in, buildings and animals ready for winter. Not to mention the boys having been sick. They have been diagnosed with asthma.. YIPPEE!!! we now have a nebulizer machine - and a puppy.. I dont know wich one is more work to be honest...

So much is going on - we are still farming but not sure in what direction we are going yet. This is such a long process... I wish it was just over one way or the other. However, in Gods time as He knows best. I had better get busy. I am truely sorry that I have not been a better friend/blogger/person etc. But, I am still appreciative of all of your love, prayers and support. THANKS FRIENDS!!!

Sue from the Farmers Wife - this is for you!!

Good Morning neighbors!

I am having some trouble loading a video for some friends of mine... Amanda and Dean!!!! I tried to send the dog gone thing - no luck - tried to load it here - no luck.. SO - I think I will have to send up smoke signals and pray for rain.... what does that have to do with anything, I have no idea. Willow and Coffeeman - you 2 are some of the best friends a girl could ever have.. *sniff* SO - I am going to try to post a recipe later today. Milk Dud has a bad cold and I may have to take him into the dr, so we shall see...

Until then - here is a couple of pictures of summer... you remember summer right - when the weather is warm and you can actually see green grass? It SNOWED here on the 12 th of October, I immediatly went into hibernation.

Obama and Mother Teresa have NOTHING in common.

What the heck already... If I said I wanted to end world hunger, that I wanted to stop female circumcision in Africa, if I said I wanted to stand around holding hands and singing Koom-by-ya while drinking blue kool aid served by Oprah and the rest of nutty Hollywood - maybe JUST MAYBE I would win an award I don't deserve too!! You have got to be TOTALLY FRICKING KIDDING ME!!! Obama won the noble peace prize.... When they had to debate whether Mother Teresa deserved it or not? Are these people really worth being on the panel? For the sake of decency I hope he defers it to the other guy.. I hope he knows he is SO NOT WORTHY!!! The other fellow had at least spent HIS OWN MONEY working for others in other countries and trying to better the world with his own 2 hands and not his LIPS!!! I hope he is a one term president because 8 years of this is going to RUIN our country. Its on a downward spiral right now that is TERRIFYING. To me, this tarnishes and degrades the prize itself. No its not because he is black, no its not because he is a democrat - its because he has done nothing BUT TALK about what he wants to do..... If he had done anything at all outside of the country other than apologize for us being a sovereign nation, then I would think about the fact that he may have stood a chance in the running... but good grief..he is nothing but lip service and threats.

A Fresh can of worms.....

Yesterday one of my most favorite blog people wrote something that hurt me deeply, yet I can understand where she is coming from. Rechelle from My Sisters Farm House, wrote a very harsh post about homeschoolers... go take a read.... http://mysistersfarmhouse.com/

I only ask that you not be rude - I consider her my friend, even though we differ greatly on this subject. She is a good mother and has her children's best interests in mind also. However, I will not tell you what to say - you are all entitled to your opinions....

The last hurrah!!!

Well, I am done.. done... done... done... done ... done... stick a fork in me - D - O - N - E.... NO more pouting, no more weeping, no more crying, no more nashing of teeth - unless for some other reason I cant think of right now - but this is it for me. I will NO LONGER be mourning the changes that are coming in my life. Whatever happens is gonna be GOOD! All good and nothing but good!!!

With that out of the way!

I would like to ask everyone to tell me what they want me to post about first. I have a couple dozen of them thought up in my head and pictures for them all, but would like to know what your all thinking! I will post about anything and everything that you want to know about. From cooking, to canning, to farming, to haveing babies....not making babies but having them... ok, making babies to - you twisted my arm *snicker* to cutting wood, to how our homeschooling is ROCKIN THE BEER GUT.... to whatever turns your crank, zips your fly, or stubs your toe.

but till I get some answers man your stuck with this.

This is my favorite person on Earth..... What do you mean you would rather see cow titty's, naked kids? Your a bunch of sicko's... No wonder I love you!

Hello, my name is Heidi...

and I am a dork - dont worry I know it and have been seeking treatment for years. However, nothing has worked.... I still do very dorky things, daily... for instance leaving the washing machine door open after loading the cloths, putting the soap in, turning the dial to on and walking away, OR driving with my Amish friend and seeing a septic truck, wanting to be funny I look at it and then down at my shirt that has come unbuttoned partially exposing my Ba-zooms and sayin 'oh thats a titty sucker' when I am meaning a TURD SUCKER... good thing she is my best friend or she may have never went with me again...otherwise all is happy in the world of Heidiville.

Thank you to those who have emailed me such loving letters. You have all made my life a much lighter and brighter place these last few weeks. Things have not changed, but we are coping better with it. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO - how are things in blog land? Can I still come back and you will all be my friends still??? **does best puppy dog eyes***


Here are a couple of pictures to tide you over...

The Milk Mans back went out. This is a RARE picture - he never sits down.
Lispy in his Harley biken hat... his words not mine...

and cottage cheese butt - with grass clippings.. what ya cant see is Lispy is in the buff - Dean and Amanda we are family arnt we? LOL

SO, I here by vow to do better at blogging. I just needed to get through some things before I could get back to being me and I am almost there thanks to all of you great people!!! Your prayers, thoughts and gifts have sustained my family so much more than you will ever know.

All our love - Heidi

p.s I will be back tommorow, I PROMISE!... dont look at me in that tone of voice....

Peek -a- boo! I see you!

SO sorry everyone that I have been gone for a week! I was trying to tie up loose ends, canning, schooling and just living. Palmer is MUCH better and things are slowing a bit - except for the garden and canning.. That is in full swing. Next are the tomatos - more pickles - then....pumpkin.. ya, pumpkin. There is somthing else that I missed I know, but that's ok, it wont come to me later either.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU to those who have mailed me, called me, sent gifts, sent love, prayed and for all of you who read here and keep comeing back!!! I LOVE YOU! Thank you for your words of encouragment, your thoughtful emails when I REALLY needed them and for just being my buds...

I dont have anything profound to say at this point, but things are progressing here - slowly. Not sure what is going to happen in the next couple of weeks, so I am preparing for just about everything that can happen... cuz it usually does.

The Milk Man and I took a little ride today and I will post on it tommorow - Suzanne at The Farmers Wife - its JUST FOR YOU!!! since I doubt that you are going to be coming to see me.... I have given up on that - cuz, I am afraid there is someone else in your life now and just cant handle the rejection anymore... **sniff sniff** I dont understand how you can go on a trip with your husband, instead of coming up here and seeing ME!!! ** fans self while biting bottom lip** anyway - you know I am pulling your leg!!! SO, this next post really is going to be for you. I have NOT forgotten the other posts and I promise they will be along shortly!



Guess who those are for???? sure aint no darn girlfriend! Thems for his Mamma!!! :) cuz I took good care of him he said.. I love boys... what a statement that is... could that be why I have so many kids, cuz I love one boy so dog gone much? Bet it has somthing to do with it!

Talk in the morning!
