We are well on our way to the first Book written by The Fellowship. I am lost for words. But you are not. You are nothing short of brilliant. My goal is 100 essays or poems or lists about your experiences with menopause. There is a wealth of information and sharing so far. So, share more, and keep ’em coming. We are already half way there. If you are confused go here and let me know if you want to be involved. I really want you to be involved.
I am tired too .. yesterday was glorious.
We had sun, the grass greened before my eyes.
Daisy milked 92 pounds on good clean hay.
And Tima learned how to walk the ramp past the steps and out into the world.
I hope you all have a wonderful day, we are off to the bantam swap this morning after the milking and I promise to only come home with a peacock! Laugh!! Yeah right.
Love your friend on the farmy

Is that Tima in the chicken coop?
Yes, it seemed an easy fix, I cannot stop her following me everywhere so this way she could see me and take a rest, plus she is safe from everything, even busy body dogs.. morning mad..c
Hah ha – dog pigs and chicken pigs 🙂
Oh my – it’s Swap Day! That means Boo is a year old…
Can’t wait to meet the new addition(s) in the morning 🙂
Life is good miss c!
Love the kissing cousins, Poppy and Tima 🙂 Laura
What a grand day you are having, with a prize at the end! It’s sure to be a good one!
I’m sure that all the fellowship are waiting with baited breath to see what you come home with this time!

i can’t wait to see what you bring home. tima sure is fitting into the farmy!
I can’t wait to meet the peacock, the four pea hens and the chicks you come home with! And the calf. And a little buddy for Tima. Because that’s how I shop!
I look forward to reading the book on menopause. I’m not there yet, and I know I’ll learn some things.
I saw Tima’s dirty nose and thought, uh oh, she needs her outside bed soon and then there it was. 🙂 I am amazed at how healthy, strong and filled out Miss Poppy looks. She is well on her way to being a contributing member of the Farmy. I look forward to hearing about the swap in the morning.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NANNIE BOO!

That’s one book I’m interesting in reading. I’m 49 and I think right now I’m going through the 40’s crisis. No red convertible for me, no, just a huge bad temper and an overwhelming sense of unaccomplishment (is that a word?) Anyway, next stop will be menopause, and I’m afraid is going to be legendary! Haha. What wonderful idea Celi, thanks!
I love the dirty snout shot, and of course the tuckered out photo as well! Good luck coming home with just a peacock. Oh, the excitement…!
My Mom had a hysterectomy at the age of 43 so I don’t think she went through it. Her mum lost her period in her 30s and my grandmother’s sister never got her period and never could have children. My mother’s sister died at 39 so I doubt she was even close to starting the ‘pause! I have no history either so your stories will be very useful for me too.
I may just have to take on your mum’s attitude about her age! I could be 49 for the next 9 years, and then I’ll be 59!
Oh but you do, after a hysterectomy. Sudden and unexpected. HRT is vital at that point. And you need to take even more care of your bones from then on! I’ve written my piece for the menopause book, and – though very positive at the end – it contains an AWFUL WARNING about avoiding osteopososis.
Happy hunting!
Good Bantam hunting and Tima is just adorable…again…everytime you post about her it just makes me smile and smile.
