2020 And We Just Finished Off The First Half?

Am I the only one who feels like "I can't believe half the year is already gone?" And am I the only one who feels like we have spent at the least double time in those 6 months feeling more like 12 months?

And "Holy Goat Bat Girl " the amazing thing is  I keep thinking back to last year this time. I was living in a time warp. In nine months I became a widow, lived through lots of weather , put a house on 42 acres on sale, sold same with 45 day escrow (it was the livestock clause lol) , purchased a house I had never seen in person but my family had . Everyone needs a good posse bless them :-). Moved this entire farm for the third time  in 13 years. All in the same amount of time I could have brought another child into the world. Just a comparison mind you.

So I also feel very absentee here in blog land. I know I have kicked  a few "shorts" out to y'all and blathered about just wait until you see what is next. But I will be darned if I ever got that far. And I am now at the other side of the tunnel and still am not sure what caused my lack of follow through. I can compile a list of reasons  excuses but what the heck no.

I even contemplated riding off into the sunset on Longfellow ( my 12 year old still stunning as ever buck boy)  but it never happened. I could see the news with photos at eleven . Gently geriatric woman and aged LaMancha ride into sunset during pandemic and OMG  both sans mask ! But it gets quiet enough around here and what would I do without you all? I even tossed social distancing and started occasionally posting on Instagram. But I felt as if I am cheating on friends. Sigh. . .

So I will pick up where I left off and sort out photos while I tackle the last 10 months which encompassed three major projects although I believe I pretty much did justice to the huge fencing project . I will begin with the whole house generator  have even had to use it twice since it was put in place. I love it <3

I promise to then regale you in the log cabin restoration , moving of the laundry room from the bedroom closet to the shop. The chicken coop and coop yard you have seen but a few doodads  have been added as recently as last Sunday.
