Of NOTE

Last night we were so very blessed to receive around an inch of rain, PURE BLISS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE!!!  We knew a little something was brewing for awhile when it started rumbling and we could see some far-off lightening.  What a wonderful thing is RAIN!  Nowhere near our deficit for this year, but it felt so good to even get wet last night after leaving some friends' home and drive home slowly and carefully with the wet stuff  making it hard to see.  Thank you Lord!!!

In other news, Southern Farm is having a give-away - one of their super-duper three hole nest boxes. I'm entering, AGAIN, so I'm letting you all know about it, too!  They have the best-looking nest boxes and since I am officially getting hens in the spring, I think I deserve one, don't you???   ;)   I'm getting serious about wanting to win one of these dudes now.  I'm already making plans for what my coop will be like and what kinds of hens I want.  So, you are officially informed, and you can hop on over and say hi if you want! Their address is    http://georgiafarmwoman.blogspot.com/  . 
Y'all have a good day - and keep your dress down!

Just one? One hen? Hmmm. Those nesting boxes look nice and neat and easy to care for. Hope that you win!

Yay for the rain and hope you get some more.

Hooray for rain in TX! You really needed it. We've had plenty but it seems that's how it goes. Feast or famine.

I am trying to decide if I want to give you competition for the giveaway...hmmmm.
