LIVE

Storm Eunice has left us a good covering of snow. It’s so calm and beautiful out there now … completely different from the scary situation we were in yesterday.

Hope you’re all staying safe and sending love to all those affected by this crazy weather.

Anyway, guess it’s time to start digging out … ❄️☃️

andromaque:

How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.

— Virginia Woolf, The Waves

Being a dog must be rough. The humans take away everything that’s really fun. All the frozen squirrels, flattened frogs, half-rotten crows, live packrats, and mysterious bones found in the woods. They never seem to appericate them.

The barn, nice and clean stall side but not-quite-there-yet left… Eventually the other side will get stalls too, as well as along the back.

The herd eating, Cream’s face in the second one cracks me up. The hay is sunbleached and not very pretty, which only changes palatability and carotene content but they like it. Hopefully it wasn’t cut late? I’ve been dragging out the hay on a utility sled (for towing behind snowmobiles) and making them reach through the fence for it to prevent waste. Otherwise they like to throw it everywhere and walk/poop all over it.

#Cottagecore aesthetic, also known as farm or countrycore is based on romanticized ideas of western agricultural life. This branch of philosophy or ‘way of living’ is closely related to other nature-based aesthetics. Cottagecore praises agricultural life, naturalism, and cultivates everything simple.
