Hi friends and farm followers… I hope you’re all doing well! May has been flying by….I can’t believe we’re halfway through another week and closing in on the end of the month already.
Just a quick note to say I won’t be on here much for a while. I’m leaving tomorrow for 3 weeks! I honestly can’t remember the last time I was away that long. For so many years, I never wanted to be far from my boys. Now that we’re empty nesters, you’d think I’d be thrilled to pack up and go.
I am excited for the travel and new experiences, but there’s also a little sadness mixed in. It may sound silly to some but I’m going to miss tending to my gardens and all the food we’re growing. I hate leaving my farm babies for so long, too. And of course I’ll miss my husband, although it gives me comfort knowing he’ll be taking care of everything at home while I’m gone. It’s a lot of extra work on top of his “real” job, but I know he’ll handle it just fine.
I keep thinking about everything that could go wrong but need to stop. I have to remind myself that worrying is senseless and the thief of happiness.
Anyhow, just letting you all know what’s going on in case anyone wonders why I’ve temporarily disappeared. I’ll be back again later next month. Meanwhile, take care!
