I had to check back to see where I left off last time and even surprised myself to realize over a week has escpaed my attention. I am so far behind right about now that I'm not sure how I'm going to get caught up.

Summer has sprung here at the farm and I am stretched in so many directions that I can't seem to find my bearings again. I need to find a way to get it all sorted out before I wake up and winter is here again.

Of course, with the unseasonal weather we have had to date, that may not be all bad... LOL The past two days we have been in the 40's and 50's with rain which is a good thing as we are so far behind on our moisture this year that it isn't even funny. However, these cold temps are a bit out of the norm. The past two nights have found intense lightening and thunder storms surrounding us but we have by the grace of God been spared the hail!

I say spared in the most sincere tone as the horses who were injured, bless their hearts are stuck in a holding pen on the edge of the pasture without so much as a tree for shelter of the wind, hail and whatever Mother Nature throws in our direction.

We are still awaiting the next baby which should have been the first baby.... But as the story goes the first baby was one that came a bit earlier than expected and is doing just fine and dandy. I will post pics some time soon - another thing I'm behind on! Hmmm...

We are still awaiting word on some sort of settlement offer on the injuries and who knows how it will turn out - but I'm thinking optimiistcally as they have already admitted guilt and assumed the vet bills. Now to see what they do about the losses. Big oil companies are not in much of a position to be going to court over any wrong doing - specificallly resulting in the harm of innocent animals.

The yard is shaping up slowly but surely... More slow than sure, but it is beautiful and the work that Chad and Kelly have done on their yard is really nice. They are planning a barbecue in the near future which they say is just because or to be thankful for what the Lord has blessed them with... Personally, I think it's just a good excuse to show off their yard work. lol

Okay, I am not going to edit this until later so I'll go ahead and submit it to at least have something new for the first time in a week! Sorry!

Summer could prove to be a challenge, but I'm visualizing organization, being caught up, the yard being in summer shape and more! Visualizing is believing and believing is achieving!

God is still in the process so I'm still trusting the process!

Have a great night and day or days... Until we meet again!

Good Night and God Bless!
