I’m THE WEST VIRGINIA WOMAN, host of The Holstein House Podcast, proprietor of Holstein House B&B. Happily married since 17Mar21. I enjoy food prep and storage, gardening, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks

Good morning all y'all! We didn't stay up late so up at regular time. Morning chores underway. Chance of snow today, high only 41*F/5*C.

What's for breakfast?

Well, another day, another dollar

After I've sung and hollered

Oh, it's my way of living

And I can't change a thing

Another town is drawing near

Oh, baby, I wish you were here

But the only way I can see you, darlin'

Is in my dreams

It's a highway song

You sing it on and on

On and on

Well, the hurt you leave behind

It's the hurt that's on your mind

Oh, and last night's show took its toll on me

Well, the city lights fly by me

As I lay my body in my bed

Oh, and dreams of you dance through my head

It's a highway song

You sing it on and on

On and on

Highway song

Is as lonely as the road I'm on

It's those big wheels are ready to roll

We've been flyin' high and so low

Lord, and all this madness, ain't as crazy as it seems

Everywhere they stop and stare

I'm just a stranger on this road

Oh, I stand alone

Only in my dream

Highway song

You sing it on and on

On and on

Highway song

Is as lonely as the road I'm on (well, highway song)

Highway song

You sing it on and on

On and on

Highway song

Is as lonely as the road I'm on, oh-oh, on

GM #nostr wherever you are. 😁

And you! It’s been a good one but now I am exhausted. Been cooking since 06:00 , dinner was at 15:00, a bit late lOL. Family only left an hour ago.

Good morning all y’all! Merry Christmas from Holstein House!

Good morning all y’all! I woke up still sleepy this morning. Waiting on the sun to rise enough to get the girls’ feed and water out. I need to be about 1/2 hour ahead of normal Sunday routine today.

Are you working any this week? With Christmas falling on Wednesday there are a lot of people taking off.

Tomorrow is our Christmas Sunday worship service. I'm not an official member of the worship team, but sort of a substitute. Anyway, I'll be soloing "O Holy Night." I just hope I can pull it off. These inhalers are murder on my vocal chords.

MIL’s blanket is finished. For most people it would be a throw. MIL is not even 5ft tall. 😊 #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #Christmas

Such a blessing to help with the food pantry at City Of Hope Fellowship again today!

Now to work on MIL’s tie blanket. She loves chickens and hopefully this will be a comfort for her in the nursing home.

Good morning all y'all! Food pantry day. This one will be a challenge. There is no place to let folks get out of the weather and it's going to be very cold, windy, and maybe wet. Probably going to be a lot of people complaining. I think I have a respiratory thing, courtesy of the grand nephew. Ugg.

Good morning all y’all! It is cold out this morning! Right now it’s 37°F/2.8°C on the Holstein House front porch, in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia, USA! Emergency help packing food boxes for tomorrow. Two key people are sick so grand-nephew and I helping out in a couple hours.

Also, I need to tidy this porcelain doll up for a sweet girl. I find conflicting info on how ro tame the hair. Some say a fabric softener/water mix and comb, others say baby shampoo/water mix.

If you have done this, what worked best in your opinion!

#holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #Christmas #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Coming together. I won’t use everything for Christmas Eve dinner but it will be ready.

I may have a table linen problem. LOL

Trying to find all my Christmas placemats and the drawers screamed for help. 🤣

Sitting in JoAnn Fabric parking lot. Stopped on a whim to see if they have fleece with chickens that I can make a tie blanket for my mother in law.

Boom!

Good morning all y'all! Been doing some catch-up reading this morning so running a little behind on routine tasks. Christmas is quickly approaching. I have most things taken care of. Still need stocking candies, and trinkets. Warmer today, but lots of rain.

What does your week before Christmas look like?

#holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

It’s hard to make out but finally have the outdoor Christmas greenery done. #Christmas #HolsteinHouse #wv #usa #bnb #nostr #grownostr

Three dozen #duck eggs clean and ready for the carton! Expecting #chickens to kick in soon. Young girls are a week or two away from starting. Older girls won’t be far behind, just not as frequent.

MIL will be going to the Danville nursing home sometime tomorrow. That’s close to 45 mins from us. I hate it, but we are not trained in the care of someone with memory loss.

Swung by the farmers market to pickup some pine swags and spotted this “outdoor eating area.” Our local market is a fru-fru market that all the progressives love.

Oddly, I am almost always the only one shopping with reusable shopping bags. 🤔
