Thank you for the welcome!
Lessie I'm about 3hrs from Kansas City. I live just outside a very small town in southeast Kansas in the Flint Hills.
A little more about me. Well, I'm actually an Okie who fell in love and moved to Kansas. I finally finished my degree in Special Education back in December and moved to Kansas this past summer and am currently Substitute teaching. I live on a small cattle ranch that we call "the farm," but we have no crops. Hehe. (Not Everything around here makes sense, but there's almost always something to laugh about!) We have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 5 kittens, and around 75 mamma cows w/ any number of calves throughout the year. We also have any number of kittens throught the year. So the running joke is that we raise kittens and calves. :)
And Marcy, I was going to complain about the cold but seeing how your from Rhode Island I'll keep my trap shut. I'd be an ice cube if I was up there!
Hope the Holiday season has been as enjoyable and as stress free as it can be for everyone!
<3 Tommie |

P.s. I've been playing around with the spelling of my name ( weird I know) and I've decided that I will stick with Hannah for good. Sorry I got you all confused. Hugs!! |

Welcome tommie,
You'll love getting to know the farmgirls. I have. I lived in Paola, KS for a few years and then we moved to Spokane, WA. (Ice cube weather lately.) Love your cattle and kitten farm!
Look forward to getting to know you Marianne |

Thank you ladies for the welcome. I'm feel'n the love!
Marianne, KS is ice cube weather enough for me. I did live a year in Connecticut. I don't know what I was thinking. Driving by the bank and seeing -2 as the temp (not the wind chill) confirmed my speculation that I was crazy! Sending warm thoughts your way.
Grace, gabby is good! Right up my alley. Living out here in the middle of nowhere, I don't get to be gabby (to people, rather than animals) near enough. :)
Reina, hidee-ho neighbor. :) I have a feeling your right about finding kindred spirits. This place has such a homey feel to it. I don't have a sister, but I think that may change soon. Can't wait!
Thanks y'all Tommie

Tommie, Marianne & I are 'country neighbors' (we just live a couple miles apart)..and she as well as I have lived in KS... So we truly can say, "I don't think we're in Kansas any more, Toto"...lolol! I swear I don't recall Winter in KS to be that cold,,,course I was 16 when we moved. Oh & as goofey teens would do,,, we would hose the sidewalk down at night so that come morning it would be a "eco-green" Slip-n-Slid!... it never occured to us that other people used the sidewalk besides us..uh duh! But it was a heck of a lot of fun getting a good running start & slid across the ice!

OhMyGosh Grace, that is hilarious!!! And my opinion of winter in KS being cold may be scewed a little since I really really really dislike the cold. So it probably doesn't feel so bad for those with thicker skin than me...which is just about everybody. :)
Thank you Diane and a Howdy to you! I have to say, I'm chilled do the bone just reading 17 degrees. Brrr! Its 34 here with a high of 42. It'll get colder before the winter ends, but this is cold enough for me. And I love your taglines. The Raggedy Ann one...priceless!
I just have to say, y'all are awesome. :)
