Five Things

Aug
17

While my internet was down, I–

1. Threw a party with homemade pizza and pie for the teenagers heading to WVU.


(They never behave.)

2. Sent Morgan off to her first day of 11th grade.

(She insisted I take this picture. Remember when they were five and you wanted to take their picture on the first day of school? When they’re 16, they still want you to do it. Even though you’d rather be in bed.)

3. Watched goats try to eat my apple orchard.

(Why me?)

4. Milked a horse.


(Shortcake at the trainer’s. Man, that horse is pretty.)

5. Had Adam over to install my new Open sign for the studio. (Thank you, Old Geezer, for the gift of the sign!)


(Adam also repaired the goat field fence. And the cow field fence. No more trips for BP.)

One of the things on this list probably requires more explanation. I’ll be back!

My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
