Fall is here on PatchWork Acres

 You can tell fall is here even though it was quit warm today....The pecans are falling heavy and the goats are slowing up on milk.I also am not getting enough eggs to sell.Just enough to provide for our family......It also has been really busy in the shop this week.Trying to fill all the orders coming in.I do not want to fall behind.....As I was milking this morning I noticed it is time to trim goat hooves and fall clean my barn.
   I also have started making goat milk kefer and I must say it is delicious....and fresh every morning...I will show you how this works in the near future.It is also time to make the winter soap and can the dry beans that have been waiting.....
    We have a fresh batch of baby chicks .27 Red Star that should be laying by the spring.I have to say I am loving the long evenings already.Getting caught up on some reading projects and crocheting cotton wash clothes to go with my soaps.
Here are some of the projects I was doing in the shop today.
  Working on Christmas orders......

Why Can't I be like a Goose

                                        We had a big storm move in this morning...extremely heavy rain,wind and lighting. I don't like storms...well I should say I have a love hate relationship ....I love to hear  the rumble of thunder but hate the sharp lighting,,love the rain but hate the high winds....you see I have been in some really bad storms...to the point of having to get under a table or in a closet....and the worse part is being alone at home at the time....  So as this storm was blowing and rain pounding....I looked out my kitchen window,There in my back yard were my 3 big geese....yes just strolling along...enjoying the rain and wind...no fear ,no worries,actually lifting their heads skyward in a way that could have been considered thankfulness or praise ...flapping their wings in dance and playing...over all having a good time....IN THE ...
I have opened a small home business, painting on pallet wood and other crafts and wood work....With winter coming on and the milking slowing down...I have a little time on my hands some days.With the long evenings it gives me time to design and dream a little....Just thought I would share a little of what is going on these days. If you want to see some of the things going on in the shop just check out....www.facebook.com/CraftBlessings ...The name of the business is PatchWork Blessings. Come check it out!!!

Thankful for my Husband

This morning in my quiet time I read Proverbs 31:10.....Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious then rubies. Wow....Rubies....precious jewels....Am I that ?.....I am thankful for a husband that thinks so and treats me like I am HIS precious jewel..... I am thankful that HE: Encourages me... when I am discouraged......... Cries with me... when I am sad......... Dances with me... when I am happy........ Prays with me ...when I lose my way....... Polishes me ... when I feel dull...... Am I blessed ?....YES Do I feel treasured ?.....YES  Am I spoiled ? ........afraid so.........
