Last Summer on the Farm...

The bed is in the room. So is everything else. I should take a picture. Our rechargeable batteries are uncharged and I fear the phone's pictures will never find their way out, so I'll just describe it for now. My main conclusion is that the room is so much bigger than I thought it was. I thought the bed would take up more than half the room, but it's probably just a third. The room is a nice minty green color, although the sample calls it "Weathered Copper."


I'm talking about our new abode, in case someone needs caught up. We recently moved to a farm in Colocord, Oklahoma, to live with our friend Naomi's parents, for approximately 1 year, since Jesse's job assignment is now in Siloam Springs. Breathe....


Which is what it feels a lot easier to do, now that I can go be in my own room for the first time since we've been here...well, we could be in it, but it was void of a 'proper' ceiling, floor, or anything else when we first came (again, pictures would have helped). Just uninhabitable. But with an amazing view. Which is why I asked if we could have that room in the first place. I went in, it was obviously the 'extra' room, without a floor and only a few patches of drywall on the walls, and full of items meant for the impending garage sale. But all I could see was the perfect view of the pasture and the little goats right out there, less than 20 feet away. I think I have mentioned these goats before, but I really do remain impressed with their presence. Today I had a goat encounter, actually.
