Mushy post of the month......

Today is a good day.  I am constantly reminded that my life is full of people that I love and am inspired by in so many ways.  My dad, my mom, my husband, a very special friend that amazes me with the ability to overcome so much.  (you know who you are)  My son, that writes an unexpected note on his check that he sends to repay me,  and little note makes my day.  So many little things in my life that give me joy, there's not enough room on this blog to list them all.  My faith in God has seen me through so much in my life and continues to be such a big part of who I am.  When things become more than I can bear, I simply hand it over..........(ok, admittedly, I have trouble handing it over) and this peace settles over me.  
Life has tried to knock me down at times, but it's got me to this place in my life and made me who I am today, and I'm a pretty ok person, so I wouldn't change a thing.  
So.........that..........is success!!!!  

Here's to the rest of my "pretty ok" friends and loved ones!!!  Brace yourself, we are going to be successful together.  
Toodles for now.

Can you spot the ewe that isn't 100% Shetland????

Just another lazy day at the ranchola.  Toodles for now.
That which angers us, controls us.

My point exactly......

There is simply no way that I could sum up why I breed Shetland sheep any better than Rich Johnson did in his recent post on his blog.    There are 2 other fellow bloggers that have linked to his blog, and I see no reason why I shouldn't follow their lead.



A huge THANK YOU to Rich Johnson at
for writing such an elegant article.
