Mom!! There's Goats on the Roof!!


Yep, a day in my life can and DOES sometimes include those words.

How did a city girl with a fast track in the career world end up here?


LOVE Baby..........Sheer, Pure TRUE LOVE!!.........*Shut Up!, I know, I sing Green Acres all the time!!*


So, I wake up this morning and the kids are hollering.........."Mom, the baby goats are on the roof!"

They were. We have 4 Pygmy Goats. 2 of which are babies. They love to jump on stuff. So, it appears they jumped on top of the BBQ Grill, then onto the top of our van, then onto the roof of the patio and from there to the roof.

The kids got a ladder and crawled up and got them down.

Sigh............Another day in my life.


As soon as they got them down, they jumped up on the top of the van again. Silly Goats think they are Mountain Goats!!

Here's a picture of Ted on the van, and then here's a picture of them when they were 2 days old....So darn CUTE!

So, I took a quiz today. I'm not sure how accurate it is. I had better ask Dave what he thinks........doesn't sound like me in the least!



Monday. The long and short of it is we homeschool. We have 8 children.....yes, I know what causes it. Our oldest daughter is in her 3rd year of college and lives away from home. She had been home taught until her first day of college. It's true of me to say, I'm glad we did it, but on a Monday morning when you look down that table and see all those kids.........you get to thinking, "Maybe I should have taken the money and went back to work full time after they were all born!"

Oh, but who am I kidding? Knowing that we taught them to read, write, act like little adults and take responsibility for one another and their own actions, makes me so glad we are continuing on the journey.

So, I am off to go teach one child Algebra, another how to diagram a sentence and another how to write in cursive.

Wish me luck!

I guess now's a good a time as any to start a blog. Why? I haven't a clue. You know what? That is how
my entire life is. I just live by the seat of my pants.........Yeah, RIGHT! Truthfully, I tend to plan too many
things and then carry the list from day to day, adding more to it. For some folks that might be daunting but for
me it allows me to always have something to do, and when you are me, you constantly need something to do.
