How you make the mundane feel magical! Not that I think your life is mundane, by any means, but you transform the everyday into something else, the lighting of a fire, the swimming grey light of dawn, the trudge through mud, the hefting and delivery of feeds... I am transported, every time. Thank you for such beautiful reflections on moving through this dark cold time. I think Brigid's fiery arrow of Imbas has lodged in you! ⚡️
Oh thank you Ali, this really means a lot, I sometimes fear the mundane is very boring, but makes up such large parts of life that sometimes it’s all I’ve got to write about, so it’s good to hear you enjoy reading it!
All the best to you and your flock. I hope the birth(s) are safe. Stay warm as you can and thank you for your poignant posts. Your posts bring a different and welcome world into mine. Thank you!😊
Poignant is not the word I should have used because it is rather negative. Moving would be much closer to what I meant. Nothing negative or sad about your writing about your life on the land. Sorry if I came across wrong!

Everything you write is fascinating, and you have such a beautiful writing style. What you do is unique here on Substack.
Beautiful words. All the best in the dark days. I am wishing I had fresh milk, still months away for me.
Thank you Melissa. It was completely unplanned but I’m seeing the benefit of staggered kidding for milk throughout the year!
Beautiful, Carly. To put such ordinary, everyday moments of life into such lovely words is a skill indeed.
Thank you, Joel.

Not at all! I thought poignant was quite a compliment :)
