life on the farm

I've spent a few days alone at the house when I haven't been filling out applications and going to job interviews. Today is one of those days. I finally landed two jobs: one as a beauty adviser for Clarins in Macy's and the other at Bath and Body Works. Bring on the employee discounts and freebie's! Anyways, I start one tomorrow and the other next week so today I'm left at the farm all by my lonesome. I like it this way and days like this will be missed. Days of solitude and tranquility with nothing but the braying of a donkey and the meow of a cat. There are actually 3 donkeys and approximately 10 cats but who's counting. I've grown fond of all of them and their sounds.

I'm liking life on the farm thus far. It is an escape from day to day struggles and anxieties not to mention the stress of an upcoming wedding. I'm not stressing but I know some people who are. We are some fourteen days away from the pending nuptials of my lovely sister Jessica to the always charming Brandon Kerns. We have a few loose ends that need to be tied quickly, but never fear. It will all come together. I can't believe it is only two weeks away. So exciting.

Right now I am altering my bridesmaid dress, and enjoying the sounds of Mr. Big and Ziva stomping at the bothersome flies, and this adorable orange and white cat (whom I shall name Garfield) begging to be let inside. Just another peaceful day in my new life. God is so good!

  1. Oh Tanya I love this! The orange and white cat is Crash and he would love to live with you. He doesn't get along with my cats, which there are only "6", Just sayin!! lol and he is a charactor. clean as can be and so loveable and playful. just dont let him scratch mom's couch. The farm seems to like you too. we will get together and you can ride Pete very safe and gently. You just opened my eyes to how wonderful it is here. Thank you GOD!
