Hello and Pardon my Ranting.

It's raining AGAIN. We have so much mud here on the farm that I almost lost a boot trying to feed the horses. The goats won't go outside the barn and are sure it's my fault. The geese and ducks are having a grand old time, but the chickens look confused.

I'm looking forward to blogging for the first time in my life.

I'll start by telling you a little about myself. I'm a middle aged farm girl who apparently lives in a rain forest. I'll blame Al Gore's global warming for the cold crappy summer we had this year. I raise dairy goats and have 3 horses that I don't have time to ride. I love to sew and paint and draw and needle felt among other crafts and hope to post some of my projects here. I read a lot. I just finished the new book by the Ghosthunters. It's good and I recommend it highly. I'm waiting for the new Vince Flynn novel coming out on October 13. I collect old crafting, gardening and farming books and need to downsize my collection of over 1,500 books.

I'm a fan of Fox News and especially Glenn Beck, so if that offends anyone I guess you've been forewarned.

I'm married to a wonderful man and have a 26 year old, mentally challenged son from a prior marriage. I'm opinionated and noisy.

Now I'm off to do some necessary housework. Ta ta for now.
