I just can’t believe I haven’t written. There’s so much to say now!

I’ve been meeting with David Barber from the Small Business Administration and working on a very in depth business plan. I finished my plan relatively quickly, I worked 12 hours on it one saturday, it got a little crazy in Fields Hall for [...]

I’ve been putting blogging off for quite a while, so I’m trying to get something down here so I’m not plagued by guilt.

A lot has happened since I last wrote. I’m now the proud mother of 3 kentucky mountain horses. First I bought two chocolate fillies that I couldn’t resist, they’re half sisters and [...]

I sure have been away from the old blog, and I’m ashamed of myself. What happened was that I let my journal get behind and I’m not allowed to blog if my journal isn’t up to date. So I’m all caught up and I have time to blog now. I’ve been up to lots of [...]

I’ve wanted to blog so many times, but blogging can only be my reward for keeping up with my written journal, which I haven’t been doing. I just finished today writing about the Clifftop music festival last weekend, or was it the weekend before?
The 2nd Morehead Fiddlers Convention went really well. I had a [...]

I’ve currently been struggling through spandex hell, I had a breakthough with the nylon thread though. I’ve been trying to make a swimming suit and it’s rough. The plan is to make a tank top kind of top and shorts for the bottom, I have the bottoms made and they kind of fit, but they’re [...]

I had a fun weekend, I’ve been too lazy about blogging though. My dearest friend Elizabeth came home and I got to see her. She also wanted some new pictures of her and the perfect opportunity arose at the farm. Let’s all be jealous of her for being so cute! I’ll start. [...]

Well, I’m home for the summer now. It’s exciting. The move out was stressful, I had way too much stuff, many bags of wool, all my equipment, and junk I don’t need. I’m going to try to pack lighter next semester. I say that every time. I’ll try really hard though. I’ve been trying to [...]

I meant to post before I left but didn’t get around to it. I’ve got lots of pictures for this one, get ready.

Last weekend Dale and I went to the Harrod’s Creek Baptist Church for shape note singing. It was wonderful. I recorded everything but I’m not sure where or how to host songs and [...]

This post is going to be a big one because I haven’t written for a while. I’m sad that my mother didn’t get her farm, but a better one will come along. I’ve been getting a lot done and started since I wrote last. I experimented with spinning Joey’s hair. It was interesting and messy. [...]

Yesterday Dale and I went to the farm to see Joey and since it was such a heavenly day out I decided to ride a bit. A neighbor of the man keeping my horse invited me to come on a trail ride with her and some other people and I was very happy. This was [...]
