I've been thinking about a blog post for a while now, but no ideas have hit me. It's hard to write when not inspired by something or someone, but I have heard and read that a person shouldn't wait for the perfect moment, instead just write. I suppose that's what I need to do about my blog.
I have gotten into the mood for taxidermy once again and have now done two mice. Victor (named after the mouse trap he's in) was my first mouse ever to do, and I learned a bit to improve my skills while working with him. Lethargic (named after the word meaning tired or without energy) was my second one. He is larger and was a tad bit easier to do. When shopping at an antique mall near by, I found a tiny brass bed and since I already had the mouse, I bought the bed for it to sleep in. I thought both Victor and Lethargic turned out pretty nice, considering they are mice, anyway.

We had some snow/sleet last week and very cold weather, but it's been in the 50's since then. Now it's cold once again and damp. It's nice to live in a place with all four seasons! Personally, I am really ready for spring. I miss the green grass, red buds on our two red bud trees, the planting of gardens, and wild flowers. After a winter of cold weather and snow, it'll be nice to go outside without layers of clothes. I am sure our ranch life will get more exciting to read about when we start doing more cattle work.
Here's a pretty picture to end with. It was taken in September. : )
