Many different trains of thought have an idea of "be, do, have". People often think that if they have something, they can do something, then they can be something. The most common one being money. If I have money then I can do "blah", and I will be happy. When in reality it is much more effective to "be, do, have". Be happy...then the rest can fall into place. I've come to the conclusion with the farm that I need to be a farmgirl to do farmgirl things and then I will have my farm. As opposed to waiting until I have my farm to be a farmgirl. I also realized that alot of this has to do with fear. I am afraid of failing, so I don't do those farmgirl things so that I don't have a chance to fail.
So...in the farmgirl spirit...we got chickens this weekend (well...we got chicks)! They are about 7 days old and have just passed the cute phase and are fast approaching the ugly duckling phase where their wing and tail feathers are coming in. I never thought that in my lifetime I would say "I'm giong to check for pasty butts". But there it is.
