It's Been A While: Farm Life Is Never Boring!

It’s been a minute! If you're reading this, I’m sure you’ve noticed the long silence on my blog. But I’m back in the saddle (figuratively, not literally—I’m still avoiding the horse for now)! A lot has changed around here, and I thought it was high time I dust off this old blog and bring you up to speed.

So, let’s start with the big changes. First off, more goats. Yep, I went full-on goat lady. No more sheep, though—they’re off to greener pastures, literally.

But the big loss around here? Our old Pyr, who we had to send over the rainbow bridge. He lived a good life, but it was his time. Our older girl, bless her heart, is now enjoying retirement, and we’ve got two little Pyr pups to fill her paw prints. They’ve got a lot to live up to, but so far, they’re doing well.

But wait, there’s more! I finally did it: I created a farm website. I know, I know—it's been long overdue. I’m not exactly the tech-savvy type, and let’s just say that the internet and I have an understanding: I try not to break it, and it tries not to break me. But with a lot of help from an awesome friend (who, by the way, spent three years learning how to design websites), I managed to get it up and running. It's still a work in progress, but it’s live! So, if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been hiding, check out americanwayfarm.com and see what’s new.

One thing that’ll be a constant on the site is sales of mini-Saanens and mini-Nubians come late spring and summer. So, if you’re into goats (or want to be), keep an eye on the “For Sale” page.

And if purchasing goats isn’t your thing, maybe you should consider getting a few. Trust me, you need them in your life. Have you ever wondered why the phrase “That really got my goat” exists? It's because goats are the true masters of mischief. They’ll eat things they shouldn’t, escape from places they shouldn’t, and basically bring new meaning to the word “aggravation.” But that’s part of the charm. They’re funny, personable, intelligent, and yes—adorable, especially when they’re kids.

I hope to reconnect with some of you who I’ve lost touch with (I know, I’ve been a terrible blogger!). If you’ve unsubscribed, please consider re-subscribing. And if you thought I fell off the face of the earth, leave a comment and say “Howdy!” I’ll do my best to be more consistent, I promise.

And remember—life’s more fun with a few goats around. Or maybe, just more frustrating... either way, it’s never boring.

Happy farm days.
