Today we welcomed April, the Polish rabbit to our farm. April is 7 weeks old, and will be a house rabbit.

Over the weekend we did a thing and these two Navajo-Churro ewes joined our farm. Winston is on the right, and Dorothy is on the left.

I just read this in a post my niece sent me on IG. How cool would it be to haul out the coffee maker and some mugs and set “office hours” so local peeps could stop by for a visit? Something to think on anyways.

How about you? Would you do something similar?

Feels like it most of this winter so far. About the time it dehydrates, here comes more rain or snow.

I don’t know why I was thinking about this, but years ago somebody asked me to volunteer last minute and I said “I’m sorry I can’t today, I’ve got too many chores.” They acted genuinely confused that I couldn’t just leave the farm unexpectedly to do what they needed. They even tried to convince me that it would be fine cuz I could just farm later. So I learned with those people it’s best to use “real job” speak when saying you can’t do something.

“I was up all night with a farrowing pig” becomes “I had to work the night shift”.

“I’ve got chores planned from sunup to sundown” becomes “I’m working a double”.

“I’m training a puppy” becomes “I’m training a new coworker”.

“I’ve got baby bunnies due” becomes “I’m expecting an important delivery”.

“I’m planting the garden” becomes “I’m restocking inventory”.

I know you don’t have to actually tell people why you can’t do something, but doing it this way usually stops them immediately from trying to convince you further. Everyone inherently understands that most people can’t just leave their job whenever they want but they don’t see farming as a real job. When you use real job speak though, their brain just moves on to the next person they can ask. They don’t even seem to remember that you work from home and are your own boss. I’ve literally never had anyone question me after I say these things. So saves me time and much annoyance. 😂
