Today marks the 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, which began the American Revolution. Our nation was founded on resistance to arbitrary authority and monarchical power. We built a democracy in the face of impossible odds. We must continue to protect it.

Went on an adventure today & brought home a new buckling to diversify our small herd! He’ll become our herd sire when he’s big enough, but for now he seems to be falling in just fine with our other boys 🥰 Now we just need to name him! 🤔 #milkgoats #diversifiedfarm #nigeriandwarfgoats #sohandsome

The first posy in a thimble I made, to lift my mood during the pandemic. The flowers are all real. When humans look at plants (even on a screen as here) we recover from stress 60% more quickly & the relaxation response is triggered in our brains. Zoom in if you're strung out🌿

Time for an alpaca break! 🦙 Please remember to take some time to disconnect, pet your floofs, and get some sunshine if possible. As long as we have the will to fight there is hope.

The world is on fire & I’ll burn out if all I do is focus on it. There’s no tallying or escaping the horrors, but how about 3 good things? I’ll start: 1) The fruit trees are blossoming 2) I made pasta for dinner, it was delicious 3) Bo the Cat is 18 & the very best Snuggle Bunny Your turn ✨

I'm really just trying to find my way back to center, I'll do well to remember that life is a marathon, not a sprint.
