Hello everyone! I have been enjoying MaryJanes books for a couple of years now and finally am learning to use a computer.I am dyslexic so my spelling is often horrendous ,sorry.We live on just under an acre. My sweetheart and I have just celebrated our 30th anniversary in june.We have 3 boys, 1 girl who is married with a 3 year old son.We are fortunate to enjoy the company of our children because one or more are often staying with us in our cozy home.We have 20 odd chickens R.I.reds, arracaunnas, brammas ect...and a rescued bernease mountain dog by the name of Cally.I love gardening,painting ,crafting, sewing, walking,kyaking,beaching,hamocking and enjoying our yard with our friends.I love to read and there is not a room in the house without books in it.We have never had a microwave and have one TV.I taught childrens games when we lived in Quebec.Bye for now.

hi richere, welcome from arizona. my grandfather came from prince edward, canada to fallriver, mass., where he met my grandma. They had 11 children, my mom is the baby. My mom and dad were born and raised and married in fallriver.. I too was born there and lived in my great grandfather's house until my parents moved to california. The rest is history.....most of the older folks are gone..i still have all the cousins....my great grandfathers house is still in our family..i wish it were mine.. My mom has friends in tiverton....i haven't been home since my twins were born. Hum 35 yrs now......

When I saw Mothergoose from R.I. I had to reply. I'm "Grammagoose"! Nice to know there are farmgirls in Rhode Island who can share the meaningful activities of simple daily life.
Blessings,

I've got an idea, then. Let's spare everyone's sanity and wait until after New Year's, but we'll make arrangements in January. |

Can I come too, Marcy and Ruth? I'm a SAHM, so I don't know what your free time looks like, but I'm home during the day. |

Marcelina~That's great. It will have to wait until after the holidays but we can set something up. It is a bit busy right now but once January comes and it's quiet we can set a date. I have looked for other RI farmgirls but haven't found any.
Blessings,

Hi Ruth,
I would love to have a get together. I have been dying to meet some local farmgirls. I haven't seen many from around here.
Get back to me and we will figure out when and where.
Take care,

Hello Mothergoose, your post struck me for many reasons. First, I have a son who is dyslexic, so you spelling will not bother me at all. Second, I am new too, Hello fellow farmgirls ! Third, I have 4 boys and one precious little girl . I so long to have a farm. My husband and I have our home up for sale so we can be one step closer to owning a small farm. Right now I have a small flock of hens. I too love to garden, sew, and be outdoors.I love to read about truly being a farmgirl. Have a great day ! |
