1. July 29, 2014 - Rotten Kitty

   She looks innocent, doesn’t she? Thirty seconds before this picture was taken, she was eating a butterfly. IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY?!

1. July 28, 2014 - I Am So Home

   And really glad to be here, let me tell ya.

1. July 21, 2014 - Unexpected Addition

   I woke up Sunday morning to Casper barking barking barking, unstoppable. I came downstairs, opened the back door, and saw this:

   Apparently, it rained kittens. Or at least one kitten. So of course I took him inside. It was bad timing because I’m getting ready to leave for Oklahoma for Weston’s Army basic training graduation, but I have neighbors taking care of the farm … Continued…

1. July 14, 2014 - Foggy with a Chance of Goats

   Right now on the farm. Spooky….

1. July 11, 2014 - I Have Hay!

   And Rodney said, seeing me with my camera, “You like that thing, don’t you?”

1. July 10, 2014 - Watching Cows

   Watching cows is about as exciting as watching grass grow. Or golf. Cows don’t move around real fast in the field creating a lot of interesting viewing as a general rule. However, I’m watching cows for 30 minutes every morning and every evening when I put Glory Bee and Dumplin together so that Dumplin can do her heat tester job.

   This morning, no riding … Continued…

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. 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....

• This response Is for jamiesan. I am Suzanne's son, I have never written a response on my mother's website before so please understand that I am writing this now because I feel it is important. You have every right to your own opinion, but your negative opinions on our military do not belong on this website. Your comment was uncalled for and you will NEVER say such a thing on this website again. I can not tolerate such behavior. If you have some misunderstanding about this comment or the role our military members play in our everyday lives, you may call me directly at 254-654-4549, if I do not answer it is only because I am working, please leave your name and number and I will call you back. If you would like to speak about this with me in person I would be more than happy to oblige you,...

• My husband is a former Marine. Both of my brothers retired with honors from the Air Force. Multiple cousins, uncles and both of my grandfathers served in the military, my grandfathers serving overseas during WW2 and the Korean war. My youngest son is at deployment training as I type this. I am TERRIFIED for him, but honor and respect his choice to serve his country and would never belittle any sacrifices he made, no matter how severe the cost. I pray that Jamiesan can someday find peace. Her son died protecting her right to say these things openly, a privilege many in our world are denied. Because without our armed forces, we have no protection from the tyranny that other governments inflict on their own people every day. I may not agree with all of the decisions made by our government and military in these areas. But we do need...

• This is supposed to be a place where we treat each other kindly. Your comment was judgmental. I am a wife to a military police man and take umbrage at your tone. The military life is not perfect, nor are the men and women who serve. However, they are brave and stand in the gap for those of us who do not fight. If you lost your son I know you grieve daily. No one would fault you for feeling the way you do. My husband has been deployed only twice and so many soldiers have gone again and again. Please do not minimize your son's sacrifice by saying it is all for naught. I know he would not feel that way. When the men are in the heat of battle it is not about big government anyway, it is about protecting your brothers next to you.I wish you consolation...

• Lokks a bit like R2D2 in early stages.

• Good one Suzanne, that should slow her down, she may be able to fix her own eggs, but lets hope she doesnt fry her own chicken
  Joell on Hen Cooks Own Breakfast
• Somehow this reminds me of what I had waiting for me yesterday morning. Five clyde mares share a run in that butts up to two stalls full of hay. A gate was put up to keep them out of the hay. One of them backed up to the gate and pooped into the hay stall! I think they were showing their displeasure of the gate. Wouldn't be surprised to see chicken poop on that top shelf!

• This is exactly what I want added to my barn! I seem to remember it's ok to share a picture of yours as long as I give you credit? I want to show my son in law!
  cabynfevr on Really Big Hay Feeder
• I'm going to put some rock down there, but it's a messy poopy mess anyway because sometimes I just dump bales there in the winter because I don't want to take them across the barn yard. I grade it in the spring.
  Suzanne McMinn on Really Big Hay Feeder
• One thing to consider is that having the feeder right there will mean that your livestock turns all the ground around it (and directly in front of your other barn access) into a muddy, poopy mess. Just a thought!

And she's ornery. Read my barnyard stories!
