My birthday comes this Friday, and the Farm Family keeps asking what's on my list.
But how can I ask for anything? I have a Big Red Barn. What else could a gal possibly want? I consider myself to be just about one of the most spoiled gals around.
I mean, just take a look at this. It was one of the guys' most recent projects.
Ta-da! Running water in the barn.
I know. Don't hate me too much. :)

Okay. This might have just about put the rest of us over the edge. A big red barn WITH running water in it?? I am picturing next winter in the midst of a big blizzard, you in the barn for morning chores, a radio softly playing happy music in the background, lots of contented and warm munching, peeping, clucking, baa-ing, oinking, mooing (?), and neighing (?) critters splurping fresh, clean water just drawn from that handy-dandy faucet RIGHT IN THE BARN! Sounds like heaven to me. (And you deserve it!)
ReplyDeleteYou suck. Really, really suck. I hate you.
ReplyDelete(Uncontrollable sobbing and banging head against the keyboard)
I'm sorry, I don't hate you. You don't suck.
(Looks outside at the 5 gallon buckets she uses to haul water every day, several times a day)
(More sobbing)
Well Happy Birthday to you! I love practical gifts like water ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's a perfect gift!!! At our previous place, I had to haul water up from the creek...in a bucket...multiple times to water the cows, goats, and sheep!
ReplyDeleteIt is the simple things...and sending you a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Since I was a child, I've not liked coming in out of the yard/garden/barn to go to the bathroom. Are they putting in a potty for you as well? Happy Bday.
ReplyDeleteWe have running water in two barns, but our billy goat broke one nozzle. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteOoh! Very nice, and yes, you are so blessed. :) Happiest of happy birthdays to you!!!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness I like you too much to even dislike you a little for your Big Red Barn, with water, no less! That is an amazing present!
ReplyDeleteWell now, how cool is that?!? I hope you have a GREAT birthday! :)
ReplyDeleteThat would be so wonderful to have running water in the barn. I have barn envy.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, tomorrow!!!
ReplyDeleteFriday? That's my birthday, too!! Yay! I want a cabin already built for me in the middle of the woods. Running water would be a plus. :) But pipe dreams being what they are, I'm hoping for a homemade card from my son at least. And good weather. Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteThat is probably the single most fantastic thing you could get! Congratulations!!! -And Happy Birthday!
