Hello :) I apologize, for I have not been writing nearly enough. That however, is about to change...

| Ta Da!! Screw you steady paycheck, nobody needs you. |
That's right, I put in my 2 weeks notice at work. I'm super excited, and a little (maybe a lot) nervous. I have a good feeling about this though, and I am looking forward to the many changes that are coming! So, what am I going to do with all my new found free-time? I have a ton of plans, for starters taking care of the farm. John and I are busy every single weekend with random stuff that comes up, for example the turkey disappearing or the pig escaping, and we got to thinking about how when we're both at work, nobody is home to take care of the important things that pop up. That thought makes us both very anxious. This place just needs a lot more care than we can give it with our current schedules. So we've done a lot of talking and planning, and I decided to go for it and quit my job. I'm going back to school in August, so until then I'm going to focus full-time on the farm. I'm taking most of my classes online, so it should work out perfect. I'm really excited about the future right now :)
Meantime, on the farm, we have new babies! Our chickens have been going broody left and right, and we finally have some new chickies :) They're so adorable!

Also, We found this puppy...
My brother told me that there was a dog running around by his friends house with a litter of puppies. All the puppies had been killed except one. One got hit by a car, I don't know about the rest. He convinced me to go look for the remaining puppy, who we found sitting on the sidewalk near a drainage ditch just inches from the busy street, and now here she is! John, my husband, has dubbed her Potato. Often times she wakes up crying and whimpering loudly, like she is having bad dreams. :( She has nothing to worry about anymore though, the poor little pup will have a nice place to live here on our farm.
