Greetings from Oklahoma,
First off, my name is Cheryl, not Shi-anne (that was the family Border Collie's name). I grew up in a small town in rural Oklahoma, spending summers on the farm. Then I met this good lookin' country boy, who told me he would live in a tent before he'd live in town. My farmgirl faith was sealed.
That was 35 years ago and we are still in the country. We have 3 grown children, 2 boys still at home (11 & 12 yrs.) and 9 grands. We have Alpine dairy goats, rabbits, chickens, 2 hogs (Ham & Bacon), 2 dogs and a growing herd of cats. We garden and raise blackberries.
I was overwhelmed when I rec'd my MJ'sF magazine. I felt like I had just rec'd an IV of "grace, grit, & gumption" with a healthy dose of creative juices thrown in. Then I come to the website and there really are more gals living like me (and loving it!). Awesome!
It is going to be so much fun getting to know ya'll!

Welcome Cheryl! You will definately find tons of kindred spirits here. I thought that no one thought the way I did or understood how comforting and charming farmlife is. But here is a whole world of farmgirls just like me, whether they farm in the city, the country, or their hearts! It's a wonderful feeling to know I can log on to my farmgirl family. I'm at home here and I know you will be too. |

I have to admit, it is a larger/faster paced forum than the ones I have been on before. I keep loosing my posts! :-) Lots of interesting stuff going on, though. It will take me a while to get in the swing.
Thanks for all the nice welcomes!
