I sit here watching the snow fly…AGAIN. There’s a fierce wind blowing it sideways. Deep. Heavy. Sigh.
Yes, the farmers need the moisture. I’m all for the farmers getting their precipitation. But why oh why does it have to be in the form of snow on April 22nd??? (I am such a whiner.)
When the flakes began falling, I started writing this long boring post about how weather became really important now that the chickens and Doink and Brandy have come to live here at Happy Mama Acre.
Blah, blah, blah. I should get over myself. Because I’m human, and I can. It’s snow. Big deal.
Doink? Not so much. The snow affects him on a deeply emotional level.
Some things you just can’t make up. This is one of them. 🙂

Thank you so much. You will never know how much I need that laugh today.
That’s so funny. I needed a laugh too. If only I could have recorded the squeal he was making… 🙂 He’s a good communicator, that pig!
Love it! Love your good sense of humour:) That’s what makes life interesting:)

Long-suffering Brandy… 🙂
This post is so cute right down to the goat sticking its head out the door. I am sorry for your snow. We had our AC on over the weekend but it has cooled back off. Total opposites.
I take comfort that my Very Excellent Husband has proclaimed there will no more snow!
I was reading this thinking how like our Coco the CuKoo Chihuahua Doink is, but then I totally cracked up when I saw the last shot with Brandy popping out. 🙂
