The other new addition to the farm....

I completely forgot to tell you guys about the rock dove I rescued!  I rescued her several months ago now, I just hadn't gotten pictures yet so I never posted.  This beautiful girl was outside the place where I worked during a storm.  She even came inside.  They chased her back out and she almost got ran over by a car.  She was too weak from hunger to fly, so I was terrified she would get eaten by something or run over.  So I called my husband and he came and got her.  He was able to walk right up to her and put her in a box.  She has a leg band on, but we haven't had any luck figuring out where she came from, so we're keeping her, unless someone turns up claiming her. She's a sweet girl, always so curious, but shy.  She likes to perch in the window of her pen and watch us.  She flies to whichever window we're closest to.  I haven't handled her at all since that first day.  She's not terrified of humans, but she is shy. I've al...

 First let me introduce my TWO cats (in case there are new readers).  The only two cats I own.  First is Gray Kitty... Old pictures. She was born in 2001 and that is also when hubby acquired her.  I first met her in 2006 when I met my hubby.  She was our only cat for many, many years.  Then we decided to get another cat since she's getting older and not keeping the mouse population down like she used to, so we got OrangeJello (or MichaelOrangeJello as I like to call him haha). Old pictures. We finally had him neutered a few weeks ago.  Just in time too because he was constantly getting in fights with other cats and was even attacking Gray Kitty.  I was not happy. Not even a week after we neutered him I walked out to the pasture to open the hay ring so the horses could finish off the hay and we could put out a new bale..... and found a stray mamma cat and her five kittens in the horses' leftover hay!!!!!  She'd just given birth within days bec...

2016 Reading Challenge - Book Scrabble - April

Gambar
Well I definitely made up for last month!  I read eight books for April.  :D  These may not be in order because I can't remember what order I read them in lol.  This puts my total for the year so far at 21.  I think that puts me well ahead of last year if I keep it up at this rate.  It will be interesting to see how many I read this year since I'm not following a list this time. Okay, first up we have... Amazon Link Two Down, Bun to Go is the third book in the Oxford Tearoom Mystery series by H.Y. Hanna.  I LOVE this series!  If you like mysteries definitely check these out because I've loved every single one of them.  They get better and better.  I can't wait until the next one comes out in a couple of months.  She gets them published really quick too.  This book is one point in Scrabble. Amazon Link My mom told me about Louisiana Longshot by Jana Deleon because it is a mystery (we both love mysteries) with a lot of humor in i...
