Who has time to write a blog???

Today is a day like no other. The sun is shining, the wind is blowing (always blows on the prairie) and I just finished a batch of chewy chocolate gingerbread cookies. Why is this a day like no other? Only because it is today and there will never be another today. Right Now.

We had a scare Friday when a grass fire came within a mile of the pasture. We were spared...our neighbor lost 600 + acres of grass to the fire.

I am attempting my homework, checking my e-mail, writing this blog, transcribing parish council minutes and listening to Kenny Wayne Shepherd all at the same time. My sweet husband is outside working. Cuz that's what men who love the land do. They work it. Day and night...week in and week out...summer, fall, winter, spring...I hope I don't sound bitter. I am not.
I'm just warning any other potential farmer-brides out there that there's no changing a man who loves the land.
