Proof that house cleaning is Bad!

October 11, 2013

11 Oct

Most people Spring clean their homes……I Fall clean my home! Sad to admit, but it’s just the lifestyle we live: from about June to September, we don’t really live in our house. It’s mainly a dumping ground for the 5 seconds your inside in between jobs outside. Ok we also shower, sleep and eat there on occassion, but really don’t inhabit our house. Working sun up to sun down doesn’t leave much time in the way of real house cleaning, so it’s sits and waits until the waether turns and we are back to living in our house.

At this point I usually look around in horror, because you can’t continue to ignore a 4 month mess that includes a mountain of laundry this time (our washer broke down) along with the usual 6″ of dust from having the windows open and cobwebs in every corner!

Usually I begrudge the Fall cleaning and only really do it because at some point other people like to see us and that means inviting them into your home. Yep, I am a shame cleaner, I can get way more one in ten minutes before somebody shows up then I want to on a regular basis all week! But this year, I think it’s pregnancy hormones and nesting kicking in, I really wanted to get it done and organize a little better!

So I went at it full force this week, seriously digging in and getting sh*t done! Pretty darn proud of myself, until I got sick last night! Apparently overdid and now I have a nice cold. Complete and total proof that house cleaning is bad!

So instead of putting off my blogging to clean my house, I will now dig in and get some posts done about awesome farmie stuff! 

Your welcome for the tip and warning! 😉

Dairy Farmer, Wife, Mama; I am passionate about my lifestyle and Guernsey Ladies.

When you’ve had the warmest January ever on record When you’ve had the warmest January ever on record and the grass starts growing…you turn the milk cows out to pasture! Looking like this dry spell should hold and they’ll get to enjoy some days on grass in the sunshine. Now we just wait to see if Winter ever does decide to show up!
Goodbye November, thankful for so much this year. Goodbye November, thankful for so much this year. Especially sights like this 😍
Good morning, cows, sun and Friday! Some days just Good morning, cows, sun and Friday! Some days just dawn with so much beauty you can’t help but stop and appreciate. Find the beauty in today, it’s everywhere 💛
Sharing the news with the Ladies behind the flavor Sharing the news with the Ladies behind the flavor when their milk is expertly crafted into gold medal award winning cheese 🥇🧀 Congratulations to Sarah and the whole crew at @briarrosecheese
Whew it was a hot one today! 🥵 So how do the Ladie Whew it was a hot one today! 🥵 So how do the Ladies stay cool? During the day they enjoy the comfort and shade of their barn. Once it starts to cool off they head back out to pasture for the evening to enjoy it in more favorable temperatures. Nobody wants to bake under the hot sun!

Another small group of heifer calves to register that are looking for their names. Must be the year of the bulls, and out of the ordinary we have one bull for you to name this round. Reminder that the first letter must match the mother’s names below. For the bull first letter much match and preferably end in Man. For example this family has already had a Lawman and other bull names over the years include - Mountianman, Fireman, Jaeger, VIP, Sergeant, Verdict, Monument, Sputnik. So give me your best for: SplurgeLocoGinaLoretta (needs a name beginning with G)LuluMae - Bull ... See MoreSee Less
