Yes, on Thursday, for the first time in several months, I took FarmWife up yo…

I'd like to start writing children's books, but I've had typical—that is, zero—luck with the sumitting-to-publishers approach. I can spin off a decent little tale in ten minutes; a clever rhyme in five; a GREAT story in 60. I r…
FarmWife's questionable talent

There's fat and then there's big-boned, and I for one don't think it's a bit fair to call someone one versus the other until you've seen x-rays. Myself, I have a particularly big tummy-bone.

Finally, the humans remembered to invite me to Family Photo Day.

Tattoos?

Tattoos . . . I'd consider one, but with my dark complexion I'm not sure it would show up. Maybe a freeze brand? I'm thinking the Kanji character for "Muleness," right above my rump. Or does that sound trashy? Clich é …
