I'm baccccccccck!
Lots of things have changed.
I know, I know... "Where have ya been?" you ask. Well, I've been 'knee deep in' don't cha know!
Garden update: I have decided to postpone the garden at the farm until Fall 2011. Why? B/c I had prior obligations to my own yard and to keep a balance I had to make a choice. Plus, it is helping me better the plan for the farm garden. I'll do a post all about my home garden though. :) Let's just say, "Poop Mountain is in good use". :)
Internship update: It is going along nicely. Everyday is a learning day. One thing I have learned for sure is: Change. Nuff said. I'm starting to feel like a part of the farm as if I'm finding my place in a chain of many links. :) I love it, but at times I doubt myself. It is hard work. S and M are Sm-awesome! I love them. I respect them highly for their dedication to their farm! I mentioned previously the hard work, yeah about that...my arms/ upper body is gaining from it! I can now shovel for long periods of time without pain or taking breaks :). Every chance I get I'm showing off my new muscles. Ha! Who'd a thunk it?! I'm learning goats names quite nicely..hehe..M has to ask me who's who sometimes..but shhhh, don't tell him I said that. I attempted to trim a hoof a couple weeks ago, it wasn't as hard as expected. The hoof is extremely soft and awkward. lol. We have since added turkeys to the farm. That is a post of it's own. Now that I think of it my camera didn't take some pictures of them that I remember taking. Oh well. The expansion loan went through and we will soon start the expansion process. Good times. I would be lying if I didn't say some days I dread going out to the farm...but as soon as I'm there feeding the goats and giving my routine of love to them..I'm happy, I came..and after a hard nights work I feel like I really accomplished something! Sorry this post is all over the place but that's what happens when you neglect a blog for like 2 months! Silly me. I made some goat cheese, not bad for my first run at it! I think next I will attempt yogurt! Stay tuned for that! I'm sure there is more to update but for now I'm all worded out!
