Working Sheep and Spring…simple country pleasures…

Three of four Beautiful days this week we have worked sheep at Maple Grove Farm…All the time watching the trees unfurl their green leaves and the bees busy, with the butterflies having a Spring Fling! Not forgetting the birds singing happily and the Red Bud trees budding out in all their beauty!  Lest I forget the grass all green and growing…and the sweet smells of the springtime!

Then there are the sheep…Being sheep is a full time job…Lambs jumping .romping, playing… making me laugh! KAT Ballou and Elvis have been busy learning Away and Come Bye…and getting round, fetching…there and down…Drover has been keeping the sheep sorted and moved to the right pens…Of course I make that harder than it has to be…but practice is good;-)

Abilene, Montanna, BOO, and the pup that is waiting for his ride north in April (Rumor) have been hanging out at the house being really good …

Sweet Amarillo is out and about some and moving very slow but moving and eating and drinking…No cure for inflammatory mammary gland cancer but Liver Pudding and pain meds are still working… Actually the Liver Pudding seems to be the answer at the moment…Of course PRAYER too! I know no cure exists…I just pray she will quietly go to sleep in my arms and not wake up here…but with God and in His arms…From mine to His…

It is all about life and living in the moment…and loving and enjoying that moment…

Don’t wait ! Live, love, enjoy everything, NOW !!!!
