Is it just me or was May both the longest and shortest month ever?  I unfortunately took a short sabbatical from the farm to finish up and celebrate graduating with a bachelors of science from Texas Woman’s University.  While the good news is that I am officially smart, (according to American education standards) I sure missed the daily farm life and grew tired of my desk and computer.  If nothing else, I grew to appreciate my farmgirl life even more, and I think that farmer Michael might even appreciate all his farmgirl does around the farm a little more, because he had to pick up my slack.

I don’t even know where to start with all the “free time” I am going to have.  I am so lucky to be able to jump right into a full time job that I am so passionate about and I have so many plans for!  Just the top of my list are; clean up the jungle our green house has become, plan a volunteer day, and organize a few kids programs.   Michael and I got a short little vacation to celebrate my graduation and we are both now rested and ready to dive into summer (and all that summer entails on a farm) head first!  We sure appreciate everyone’s patience as I was missing in action from Homestead Farms, but beware; I am now employed and armed as a full time farmgirl!
