Happy day and thanks for tuning in to Ranch Raised!
You don’t need me to tell you that there is a lot going on in the world. And to be completely honest I probably don’t know the half of it. We do not have cable TV. That was a pretty easy budget cut that I made for our family years ago. My husband does the majority of the feeding in the pick up or tractor with the radio, while I am usually doing the odds and ends and all the barn chores, which is beautifully quiet and peaceful. Living where we do, it becomes really easy to feel insulated from the big ole world out there, and maybe that is a conscience decision we make!
I know that for my own mental health, it does me no good to consume world, heck even national, news from a fire hose. I know that to be a productive, mentally healthy adult I need to get outside, let the sunshine hit my face, the cool spring breeze slap me around a little bit, and on top of all of that, I need to see the baby calves going from being born to bouncing around in a matter of hours. And that is how I live my days, with my feet on the ground and my mind in the middle.
So, what I am trying to say is, I really don’t know much about what is going on, off of the Jones Ranch. I still know one thing to be true, filling the bellies of the ones you love and spending time with them “breaking bread” is worth the time and effort. Oh, get outside for some fresh air! There are parks to explore, adventures to be had, and memories to make in the big outdoors!
