WIND last night.   BIG.   all night.   RAIN all night.    When i woke,  i expected to see evidence

Out There

There was none,  of  the WIND,  just the Rain.  Wet.   But everything was in its place.  The wind chimes,  that had sung Storm songs  all night,  just there,  still.   A plastic adirondack chair down by Nogal's forest overturned.   I'd been skeptical,  but the Feed thing that Jenny had built for Sunny Ray and Jack….it stood and the feed was dry.   New configuration of Doe Goat Shelter,  inside,  Dry.   Talkie's place,  in the Kidding House….dry.  

Because Talkie is in her Evac crate and so,  closed in,  i need to be UP and OUT  a good 2 hours earlier than i'd like to….set her free into the day.  Which is turning out to be Good.   Who would have guessed…not me.  Since i am Out there,  i continue.  Looking,  walking,  Seeing.

The Rain freed me to go back.   Back to Cloth.  I finished Tina's prayer.    This took the Body of the day.  It was good.  Very Good

    I am so happy for your very good day. It’s been awhile for you. I’m also happy for Talkie. To sleep safe and dry in a traveling crate is most important for a chicken who lays food for you. Happy chicken, happy life? And that helps you sleep through the night too. Love you and your whole life.

    it’s all a part of the All. I go out and offer Corn Chex to her. Better than the ritz cracker. She follows along, corn chex to corn chex on, into the New Place.
    the Rain this week marks the End of this year’s Fire Season. It’s what we have, where we live. Others have different things.
    The bed is made. We sleep. Tomorrow, we begin again.

    Same here, I would linger inside but the chooks have to be let out, fed and watered. And one of the new chooks, Phyllis, is loud and demanding and ready!! I so love to read of your daily routine.

    Will Talkie eventually go in and out on her own? Not that getting out and about early is a bad thing but I totally get the whole lazy morning concept. Tina’s prayer .. the colors woven together like our cyber family will be a everyday reminder to practice gratitude. I certainly have much to be grateful for this year .. the move topping a long list. Happy Thanksgiving Grace!!

    Receiving…receiving the joy of family and friends, the bounty of good food on our table today, knowing that some of what is on the table, herbs, onions, garlic, multicolored corn, was grown in our garden.
    Receiving…the bounty from Gaia; woke up this morning to a snow covered landscape. As I write this snowflakes continue to gently fall to the ground, enveloping us in a soft silence that for me, is perfect for this day. Love to you grace, to La Familia, to all who share life with you on the Hill.

    i don’t know. this eve, she was eyeing the Tree. If she started to go up, i’m not sure i could lure her back
    down.
    Maybe in time?, but she is used to her own freedom.
