Home again, home again, jiggidy jig!


On the farm with the padres and all the beautiful pups and kittens. Papa got his "girls" yesterday...the long awaited bees! I painted one of the hives so they wouldn't be confused as to which one they belonged to. He says they'll probably argue over who gets to live in the one with the rooster on it. Then I photographed his moment of glory! I got to wear a bee suit and get smoked down so they wouldn't be incredibly attracted to my sweetness. The buzzing is incredibly zen-like. Oh what a world! Frannie was the only one that got stung. Poor pup. We're hoping she learned to harness her mischevious qualities.


Mom and I went to goodwill or "the GW" as she calls it and I found some amazing vintage moccasins that zip up the back! And they're long enough for these kentucky hooves! Imagine that! We're going back today because we only had about ten minutes. Besides, the pops would love to go. He's as much of an Amelda Marcos as I am.



I came home to kale soup with crunchy kale chips to sprinkle on top! Then we had various ice-creams (each of us had our own flavor, how cute!) and watched movies. Last night we watched disc one of "Unbearable Ligthness of Being" and today disc two. That movie wore us out but it was incredible. The music makes me so nervous. And I think we'll all adopt an Eastern European accent for the day. Who knew Daniel Day Lewis was so handsome? I never thought I'd opt for facial hairlessness, but I really liked the chisled clean-shaven thing. Then we watched "Lars and the Real Girl" which we thought would satiate the chick flick craving but was actually artistic and quite heart-breaking.

Mr.Robin just brought Mrs.Robin a worm and I got to watch the babies eagerly guzzle it down. She looks so beautiful with the rain in perfect little drops on her back.

Mmmm the country!
