I’ve lost another sweet pet. Genevieve’s little buck, Jonesy, broke his neck by getting his head caught in the hay feeder. This happened last Friday while I was at the festival in NC- my kids found him when they got home from school- ugh. Their father was with them, so he very nicely stepped in [...]

I’m just passing through. Last weekend was Rhinebeck- which was beyond wonderful! More on that later, cuz tomorrow early we leave for SAFF. (again, I’ll be with Kid Hollow- if you’re there, come see me). So I’ll have lots to tell later. I just wanted to stop in and tell you all thank you so [...]

Hello, friends of Mindy.
It is Charcoal here, spokesmodel, handdyeing muse, and Facebook page star. I am here for a very sad purpose today.
Mindy asked me to tell you all that her dear bunny companion of nearly a decade, Puff the Magic Rabbit, has passed away to the great organic vegetable garden in the sky. If [...]

If you know, please tell me- I’d really like to know. Actually- come Thursday, I’m going. To Rhinebeck, that is! I will be working at Kid Hollow Farm’s booth- and in general having a great time. So, if you’re there, please stop by and say hello. Hopefully I’ll be back up to regular posting afterwards- [...]

That is the best news! They went home yesterday- I talked to him today and he said it feels good to be home. Now, if his incision keeps healing like it should, he gets to stay put for a few weeks, then he goes back up to Johns Hopkins to do another round of the [...]

Meet Cookies and Cream.
What? You didn’t think I meant human kids, did you? I think the 3 I already have are quite enough for now. No, these are 2 of Pat & Steve’s kids. They weren’t doing so well (parasites. Again. Sigh.) so Pat asked me if they could come here for some tlc. So [...]
My sweet Pikachu

I was going to do a real post tonight, with pretty pictures, lots of goaties (and goatie news) and everything. But a little earlier, as I walked past the hamster cages, I noticed that Pikachu wasn’t sleeping in her nest, and was breathing funny. So I took her out- she was ice cold. I’ve seen [...]
Progress- on all fronts

Most important progress is about Steve. His surgery went well, they got all of the tumor. That doesn’t mean he is home free, there will still be chemo and crap, but this surgery was a big deal. Pat has been posting daily updates, and they all sound wonderfully positive. The surgeon is pleased with his [...]

Steve’s surgery is over. He is in recovery right now. The surgeon was able to get all of the tumor and is feeling very optimistic. He’ll be moved to ICU soon, where Pat will get to see him. Keep sending them all your good thoughts- I imagine recovery will be a long road. Thanks tons!!

This is a huge surgery. They told Pat they expect him out around 4:30ish. They call her in the waiting room from the OR every 2 hours, and the first report was that all was proceeding well.
I know you guys will help think good thoughts for them today. The more thoughts, energy, prayers- however you [...]
