living on a farm...

...i'm used to...
...hearing and smelling these every time i walk outside. chasing them back into the pasture when they somehow get out. and throwing them hay occasionally....feeding these compost from the kitchen, and taking them to the butcher house. and then filling my freezer with their meat....moving this around the yard and tying it up to eat down the grass. and finding it's poop pellets everywhere....hanging out these to dry in the fresh air and sunshine....getting after this when she barks and taking care of her when she gives birth....finding these in my bedroom! i never screamed so loud when i walked in my room and found this. lucky for me, farmer cam was over to catch it and put it back outside. mele and i had a great time laughing about this.
good times.
