Cleanin' the Rainboots and Goin' to Town

I actually scrubbed my green garden boots for my trip to the 'Grove with miss Katie today. As I was brushing them down, I thought, "Is this normal?" Then I thought, "When Farmchics go to town, we really do it up right!"

I got all the still growing things in the greenhouse tidied up this morn, but didn't do A SINGLE THING on my little house. I need a maid, or a wife so I can do the garden-weeding-chicken-watching-bunny-poop-scooping things that need done outside. Maybe thats why they had more than one woman in the house in Bible times?

I have decided that, as much as I love my Maid Marian, I DO NOT want another Corgi, unless the maid/wife is up for vacuuming every day. I will gladly clean the barn and do all the cooking, but I am tired of the even film of cream colored hair that covers everything in my domain.

I am planning a Farmchic Day of Prayer for Puxatani Phil. The little booger better not see his shadow....I am ready for spring. I'd better do some research first, because maybe there is something sacrilegious about praying for a rodent? Even a weather-forecasting one.

    We did...I had ZERO people in my house (save gma, but that's another story) and K was down to 2 so we trotted up for a couple hours.

    Winter is ok....but I want snow or spring. How's that for demanding??

    spring fever has hit the Young House as well. I can't wait to get started on some planting and cultivating of my own. I will have to hit you up for some advice. Maybe we could trade a little yard labor for some home cleaning;) Just a thought. hee hee
