You already knew that I wasn't dead, so me being alive isn't the big deal (although, in a way, it's a pretty big deal for me.) Instead, this is a different life changing event, although it is actually related to why I have been MIA for a while now. For you see... I am pregnant! 19 weeks[...]
It's been almost three months since my last post. My god, where has the time went?! At first it was time. And then it was exhaustion. And then when it wasn't my routine anymore, I just forgot about it... To get everyone all caught up, here's the high level of things that happened over the last[...]
We have a new hangout - we've spent many weekend days here, sipping on cider. We went after Gold Cup, we went after putting up fence posts, we went JUST because. Wineries are fun and all, but then I have to go through the tedious process of pretending like I know all about wine, and can detect the d[...]
Springtime is Virginia Gold Cup time! One of the best excuses to day drink, ever! Gold Cup attracts about 100,000 people from the DC area to our little area of Virginia. We joked on the way over there that for some of the people who come, this is likely the only time they leave the metro[...]
My mom recently made me come get a bunch of stuff from her house. Stuff that I've left there basically since I left home 11(?) years ago. I suggested she just throw it all in the trash, and asked if I could throw it in her trash, but she told me I can throw it away after I get it out of her house. U[...]
Holy smokes, I'm still alive! I feel like I haven't posted in forever! I'm still kickin' though... just haven't been feeling inspired to write anything, despite things happening, and me thinking, "man, I should blog about that." Well, I'll start with my favorite thing to happen recently - I w[...]
Yesterday, I watched with satisfaction as my hay guy dropped two fresh round bales in with the babies. Then, he dropped a third to be put in storage. We pushed it in next to the remains of a fourth round bale. I don't have to worry about hay for at least a month. Hay has always been a source of w[...]
This long weekend was a fun weekend of visitors! And I popped up on Eventing Nation! I have officially peaked, it's time to retire. Shelby came back up, and naturally, she had to see the little babies. I think she was a hit with them. Stubert and Shelby doing the official muzzle bump greetin[...]
Despite all my efforts to discover time travel, the years continue to go by faster and faster. Tomorrow, I'm going to wake up 80 years old. To maximize the moments I have left, I am actually going to set some goals this year. I don't think I set any last year, and then I ended up buying a baby horse[...]
Well, I did it. Something I would have only thought teenagers capable of pulling off. Something that in my day, only rebellious teenagers did. I dyed my hair pink. Although I went the grown-up adult way of doing it, and went to a salon and paid an absurd amount of money for someone else to pin[...]
