Stopping To Say Hello

Yesterday we had a cow deliver who could not stand up after the calf was born. It was probably due to a pinched nerve. I walked around the pasture's edge to look and see that she was O.K. mid-afternoon. I asked my hubby how she was later in the evening; he said he didn't know--she'd disappeared. Good sign.

I've been running my daughter to play practice a lot this last week. It takes 40 minutes to drive there, so it takes a big chunk out of the day. She will stay with friends for the next couple of days, and then the play will be on Friday and Saturday, April 8th and 9th. Yoo-hoo, Donna! Did you want to come see the Beverly Hillbillies? (She is the only person reading my blogs who is close enough to drive over--as far as I know :-)

I'm starting to do my spring cleaning. Anyone want to help?

Tomorrow is election day. In Wisconsin we get to cast our vote towards the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Yesterday my hubby and daughter went to a GOP dinner where Gregg Underheim said something about homeschoolers--"leaving them alone" seemed to be the quote. Do you think we could get this guy in office?

I've been taking carrots to Mrs. Donkey. We still have not given this poor girl a name. She likes the carrots a lot!

During the tough times in life, I think we notice God reaching out to us more than during the days of "busy-normal." Is this one of the reasons he leads us down the path that promises to be hard?

I wish I was close enough to drive over and help clean! *sniff*
