One Cold Day In Florida

One Cold Day In Florida

We Had A Hard Freeze!!! Tra!  La! Take that mosquitoes! I don’t think we’ve had a hard freeze for the past two winters at least… We need at least one a winter to kill off the green-gooies that get to thriving in the heat and humidity down here…….(witness Ben’s head). And the mosquito population has been growing each year exponentially. As an aside…….did you know that we have elected officials who head up our Mosquito Control Division? ***Our Elected Mosquito…

Last weekend I was able to temporarily balance on my new leg, while vacuuming with the longest tube I could…

Counting Kitties

Counting Kitties

Over the years I’ve found that it’s best not to ask permission. Just wait and see what happens. Having an escape plan is not a bad idea either. Really I apply this philosophy to just about everything, but here specifically I am talking about adding animals to our farm, either livestock or pets. Specifically with this post——-additional house cats. We currently have three main house cats and one apathetic barn cat. Thelma (an overtly fluffy tiger lady) who I was…
