playing farm.

I'm helping my cousin house sit at my uncle's farm that's miles away from what city people would call "civilization." This is where I grew up. Although I was never technically a "farm girl," the countryside is home to me. It's been kind of nice to get away from the city and surround myself with nature, limited cell service, and people who genuinely care when they ask how you're doing.

This is the first time I've opened my computer today and it feels liberating to have gone an entire day without it. Turns out there is life beyond the internet. I need to do this more often.

Today has been filled with farm choring, family hanging, dog chasing, dog bathing, more dog chasing, trampoline jumping, Gator riding, and sunset watching by a perfectly still pond.

Plus, there are like twenty cats here. Maybe being a country girl ain't that bad. (Minus the chores... and the dog.)


Now... time for the wine drinking portion of the night.
