Hey ya'll...
I'm Abbey,
Abbey Normal ........ aw c'mon.... it's funny!
ok, I'm Gini. I'm from Alabama, but call Broadway, NC home now.
I have 2 little girls that I had late in life. My daughter Rachel who just turned 7 came just as I turned 40, Rebekah came at 33 weeks... 2 days before I turned 42. Sadly I never got to hold her when she was "just born"... I died on the table and was dead when they took her.... but from what I hear, I'm doing ok for a dead lady! It was 7 days before I got to see her... being in a coma really will put a cramp in your cuddling your newborn!
I have an awesome husband. He's a pro photographer and full time Biblical student. He also loves animals as I do... we have 3 boxers and a choodle.... ok, back in my day that dog would have been "uh oh, somebody jumped the fence".... now they are called "hybreds"... ok, yea.... but she is sweet... ugly as dirt... just imagine a spanish and french accent combined.... and the wild hair to go with it! But as my husband said when we only had the 3 boxers.... "honey, there is enough love in our home for one more".... oh how the floodgates were open wide then!
We have 3 alpacas... I shear their fiber for spinning into yarn. They are lovely, but BIG.... so I'm swapping them with a woman in Western NC who raises angora goats for them. We have 2 (maybe 3) stray kitties... 1 is getting more used to the sight of me and won't run as much, but can't touch... no clue if a boy or girl... the other... Catthrine (Cat for short) is a lovely tabby calico and spends the night (every nite) inside in her "appartment (a small dog kennel with the door locked on her sooofffttt blankies)... she will bang on the door at night if I don't come get her "on time" fuss all the way thru the kitchen and go sit in her "appartment" till I shut the door... such a sweet girl.
now my chickens.
our neighbors are of different culture, I try not to judge, in spite of finding cock fighting highly distastfull (and I've called the cops so much they know my voice)... so I realized that I had been adopted by a roo and 5 hens.... now I'm still sporting my beautiful roo but only 3 hens. In spite of Chester being chicken napped night before last... he must have fought hard to get back home to me... and brought back 3 of his faithful ladies. Hubs and I are building him and the girls a nice SAFE coop... to keep our neighbors from climbing over our fence and chicken-napping my babies again...... maybe when I do see them all outside, I'll go clean my sniper rifle within their sights.... grrrrr.... just hate a theif!
I'm a soapmaker by trade. I run my business from home. This allows my schedule to be very flexible and allow locals to come over to "shop" from my kitchen. I've ventured into making lotions and lip balms and spin yarn from many different fiber sources.
anyway... dat's me...in a nutshell.... or just a nut...
so, any of ya'll near me? I live just outside of Sanford NC!
