People, food, animals, laughter, and wine.
The roosters trying to out do each other.
The cough of big leggy grey herons trying to sleep in the tree. (There are five roosting in there each night).
The rustle of the pea-chicks in the cloak room.
The gentle breathing of the dog beside the door waiting for me.
The crickets as they anticipate the dawn.
My yawn.
The day to come. As we watch yesterdays day recede forever.
Delightfully imperfect people with permission to lead imperfect lives.
The struggle to sustain life in all its tangled glory.
The farmy. Being the person we would want to meet.
Good morning. I hope you have a lovely day.
Love your friend on the farm

I am working my way through your posts since day one and enjoying it thoroughly. After all, how can I be expected to follow along now if I have no history? Much love, Gayle in sunny Sacramento, California
Why that is just great! Thank you!
I come from two perfectionist parents and am so grateful to an older cousin who took me to task way back when saying: ‘Eha, why do you always have to do, why can’t you sometimes just be’ . . . . imperfections and all . . . . methinks my relaxed and happy days began then . . . . Great to read Hugo’s dinner became somewhat of a ‘block party’ 🙂 !
Thank you for your beautiful words today. I have Asperger’s syndrome and have had to learn to embrace my imperfections. It’s not always easy living in a world which I don’t always understand and which doesn’t always understand me. But I try to be the best person I can be, and to realise that no one is perfect, and it would be a very boring world if we all were the same! I wish I lived closer to the Farmy, I think just sitting with your animals would be good therapy. Animals don’t need words to have a conversation. Wonderful 🙂
I wish you were closer too! And thank you for telling us what you are dealing with. The animals are wonderful therapy and my favourite therapy animal today is Tane – he is being such a star lately. And yes – no words! wonderful.. love love.. c
Lovely words and photos today. So glad that Boo is well again.
I’m interested to hear about last night’s dinner, too:)
You guys have it all wrong. There are perfects among us. Perfect idiot, perfect stranger, perfect fool. She bows low. Love, Gayle, imperfect as they come.
