Man is that an understatement! First and foremost, I have disappointed myself and probably some of the people who had been following this blog, by dropping the blog ball...I shall make no excuses, life just got in the way. I am not sure how people like Ree Drummond ( Pioneer Woman ) do it.
Thinking back over the months I have been away from writing, had I just done a bit of it the times I was thinking of doing it, I may just have fell into something totally inspiring and wonderful. Instead I was just day dreaming of writing, and did some other task, I felt more worthy of my time. Usually some menial, unsatisfying task. I had a guilty nagging feeling the whole time I was gone however...Somehow something felt missing. Mostly because I like this whole blog thing..I get to feel and act and write silly things. Who wouldn't like to do that.
So NO PROMISES! NO CHALLENGES! I am simply going to live my life...and hope that I can sneak in a bit of time to get my thoughts and observations down. I should roll this into the "making more time for me" list, but somehow it makes it feel more like a task I need to get done, than going with the daily flow.
As we approach the end of 2014, like most everyone else, I am taking a moment to look back over it and appreciate the moments, the friendships made, the fun times had and smile in the glow of those experiences. I have oh so much to be thankful for, and feel lucky to be going forward to another year, with a Man I love and adore and couldn't be happier with.
You see...as the title of this blog states, the times have changed big time for us. Our beloved farm in Casco is no longer, due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to move. Moving is a very difficult and stressful situation for all involved, and as many times as we have moved in the last few years, this time did not come any easier. Imagin moving the stuff in a bedroom farm house and the contents of a barn to another location an hour away in the winter...WICKED GOOD TIMES YESSA!
Yet in all this crazyness, we have found peace. A calm has come over us, that is different than we felt at the farm in Casco. Our new location is a farm as well, surrounded by reaching mountains, and stretched out hay fields...it felt like home the second I saw it.
Even though there are still a few trips left to be made, and somethings that will simply have to wait till spring, we have made our home in Bethel. It is my intention to stay for a very very very long time....
Until next time Ya'll
the friendly female farmer
