| Jan, That is exactly how I feel about the fair. The rest I couldn't care less about. Although the scones and elephants are definately a draw too! |

Karen, I think you win! As for me, I prefer quilt catalogs but hey, variety is the spice of life.

As you are cleaning the water tank.Your steer decides his saliva is your new hair gel and his tongue is the applicator.And you run to show your hubby.

When you know how to open a feed bag!!! Took me a while to figure out how to pull the stitching so it just lets go. No more scissors for me!!

Hey Farm Girls!
When you go into town to the grocery store and the guy in the next lane is driving a tractor and pulling a haywagon loaded with bales and boys riding on top!!!

verbina, there is a trick to it, well sorta. It's making sure you start from the correct side. If the side with the smooth, even stitching is the front, you start to pull from the right side.
Missy, manure on my shoe really doesn't bother me anymore! I hate having to change my shoes just to go collect the eggs but I know others smell the manure on my shoes way more than I do!
Call me old fashioned. |

You know you're a farm girl when for 6 weeks you get up at 1am to go feed the orphan foal in the barn and again at 5am and 9am and 1pm and 5pm and 9pm...

when your daughters friend comes over to pick her up and it's on horseback and she leaves out the front window!
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

When you are excitedly telling your city friends about your chicken tractor and they ask "Do they make tractors for chickens?"
visualise a tiny John Deere here.

I have just read the 4 pages of posts and have tears rolling down my face from laughing so hard. Y'all are totally wacked!
...when you're thrilled to get a Tractor Supply or Home Depot gift card from hubby (half the fun is picking out your own stuff!)
...when your city friends and their kids refer to you as "the chicken lady"
...when you love the look on someone's face when you tell them that eggs come out of the same hole the poop does
...when you have tough soles on your feet that could walk on gravel....probably because they have walked on gravel!!
...when your idea of gun control is helping your kids learn how to stay steady while eyeing the target
...when you'd rather go for a romp in the hay than in the bed....literally!

When you walk out the door and call
"Where's my Girlzies!! " and all the hens come running and flapping to say hello!

When you go to visit your daughter and have to stop at the hen house and goat pen to say "hi" to the animals before going in the house.
