IT'S BEEN A WHILE
I know it's been a while since I posted the last time. I have probably not propperly introduced my twin daughters though. They are not Mateo's kids, but he is taking his role as stepfather very seriously, and loves them like his own.
I haven't posted much as we have been very busy with the curly youngsters, and the girls has been hitting the pre-teen year very hard. They are constantly moody and has a hard time getting along with each other. Not that it worries me much. That's just how teenagers are, and so a pre-teens.
So today, to stop the constant teasing and arguing with each other, we took one twin each. I took Sorine, while Mateo brought Larke out for a hack on two of our adult horses.
Tumblr media
I got to take a single picture of them, as they road out. The mare Larke is riding is a mare we bought from @echointernationaljumpers. They had gotten her from a boarder who had to move back to Australia, and didn't know what to do with her, since they didn't know anything about the western disciplines at all.
So we have taken Jammies (OCS Thats My Jam) in, and even if we don't exactly breed Paints or Quarters we will find a use for her. She can maybe be a part of our curly breeding program in time. Otherwise she can be Larke's horse. My girl has already taken quite a liking to the mare, and talks about her as 'her horse'.
Kids and ponies d:

While Mateo and Larke was out for a hack. I asked Sorine to join me in the arena. She always seems much calmer when riding, so I thought that would do her good. She mostly rides the only adult curly we have at the moment, which is Fosmanta (RRS Fosmanta). She is a sweet mare, though she needs a little more of an experienced rider than Jammies does.
But Sorine is handling her very nicely. She is definitely the one who is the most interested in the technical parts of the riding, while Larke just likes speed and a good hack.
Hopefully we will, in the new year, buy a few cows, so the cow horse training can begin. That's something I have tried a lot when I was young in Texas, and always wanted to implement at my own barn. So that's something for the new year!
We will see if the curlies have any real cow sense when that time comes. Until then we have been allowed to use some of the cattle on a neighboring farm, if we just tells them in good time.
That's about all from us for today!

he wondered if they were finally looking at each other.
commission for @tomcatwambsgans !!! thank you so much for the opportunity to let me run wild (truly bonkers wild. like full creative freedom UGH it feels so good) and pick a scene from the extraordinary romtom fic horse foreplay to work from; i had so much motivation when drawing from a well of SUChH evocative storytelling and wanted to push the visual claustrophobia, the intimacy, and distortion as much as i could in this piece to suit the mood of the fic <333

What kind of animals are on your farm?
cows, chickens, ducks, used to have a silly goose, barn kitties, and cattle doggy
we used to have goats but they escaped too often so my friend takes care of them now lol. and we had pigs when i was little. i miss those buggers but once one escaped when i was playing outside in the dark and i thought it was a monster 🗿 i screamed all the way to the house LMAO. also i was gonna buy a peacock a few months ago but then my mom found out about my secret plans and it didn’t happen lol
as for breeds, the herd is mainly hereford, but in the last few years we’ve also gotten black/red angus, speckle park, highland, and simmental (thank you neighbour’s bull).
i really want some sheep. i’ve always wanted black nose valais, but they’re sooo expensive and breeders are far away. maybe in the spring i’ll get some :] i’ve always wanted since i was a kid.

Some of those doctors make hating oat milk their entire personality. I hate them. Cannot pretend to find them funny or like i give a shit. Fucking pretentious assholes
#also my colleague (the girl i had my shift with) is the exact opposite of me in all aspects. asked me if I'd ever worked in customer service#because i couldn't care less about being fake friendly to assholes and don't care if they like the service or not#like bitch those people don't have any other choice but drink our fucking coffee it's not like I'm competing with anyone#or like they pay us in any way. i get paid for doing the dumb work i have to do not for stroking some dumb ass doctors' egos#they come out of their rooms once an hour to get coffee and we have the cups on the table and i wouldn't even Think of#HANDING them the cups and smiling sweetly at them and asking 'coffee? tea?? :))'#I'll just assume these grown adults will get their stupid coffee or tea when they want some. it's not like they don't know where it is#(and i AM friendly and smile when someone is coming in our direction but why the fuck do you need to get so disgustingly friendly with them#if someone held up a cup asking if i.want some coffee I'd leave immediately even if i came just for coffee. it's creepy)#anyway. she's nice. I'm not.#there's normal people who will get their coffee and maybe ask if the milk in the little jug is cow milk to which I'll happily reply 'yes#:)'. then there's the other people who see the oat milk and make it clear they are the most insufferable people on the planet#(and i pity their patients so much. not much to choose from i guess but if i had that as a doctor I'd happily just die)#like everyone who took oatmilk could do it without making a fuss about the cow milk on the table. the cow milk lovers could never#'the oat milk is in front of the actual milk. this is unacceptable. i hate such healthy bullshit' lol okay#'OAT milk?? I'll leave this to the horses! THANK GOD you have actual milk!'#my favorite was the one who really took personal offense with its sheer presence. as if it had killed half of his patients lmao#'we had 50 patients with xyz problem. ALL of them drink oat milk. they cannot see the connection. it's really unhealthy'#at this point i just said i didn't care and stopped paying attention and he started complaining to his doctor colleague about how#oat milk is advertised to be healthy and how it's actually the opposite and i just find that very funny compared to the first comment#from that one guy who doesn't like such healthy bullshit. you guys need to find a consensus on the oatmilk issue i think. no one takes you#seriously if you contradict yourself like this. also i couldn't care less about the healthiness of the milk alternative of my choice. bitch.#next week I'll end up killing someone. i hope they all die from their cow milk. (but not the ones who took cow milk and didn't say anything#about the oat milk. they can continue living as they didn't annoy me)#void screams#some of these doctors were actually quite nice (most of them even). one even brought an applicant to us telling her to get some coffee#(which we are not allowed to give to applicants. but i don't care. I'd rather they get something than some of the asshole jury members#who hate oat milk (which is not the issue. the issue is them making it everybody else's issue that they don't like oat milk))

i think the most annoying fucking thing about people getting on scout's ass for having mud in their pastures is that i have seen and dealt with large hoofed ungulates during peak rainy season and they just do not seem to fucking get that mud is inevitable with big beasts like cows or horses and that theres pretty much nothing you can do if said big beasts decide to go out and stand in it instead of using the shelter you give them

The constant struggle of needing to continue my trimax reread so I can get working on the next ITNL chapter vs the wish to keep playing stardew valley
I started this new game not even a week ago but I'm midway thru the first fall and already married to Sebastian. And so it goes 😂
#speculation nation#im naming all my farm animals after trigun characters. vash and wolfwood are chickens.#milly and meryl are cows. and i just got 2 ducks that i named livio and razlo.#AND im gonna name my dinosaur zazie. bc it just makes sense.#thinking of making midvalley and hoppered goats. elendira & dominique as sheep.#sheryl and lina as rabbits. probably kaite too. hell lets make all the kids rabbits#idk who im gonna do for the pigs. it feels a little mean given the connotation of calling someone a pig.#might break the trigun streak and name my pigs after shrek and fiona. as i have in previous games.#who am i missing. luida as a sheep. brad as a goat. omg knives as a void chicken.#I SHOULDVE NAMED MY HORSE REM!!!! oh well too late. i named my horse after my horse-coded oc Lana#and my cat is named Sammy. after my special orange boy 🥺🥺🥺#fuck who are the other ghgs. omg monev would work as a pig actually. big guy.#then theres e.g.mine. kinda wanna ignore him bc his name's stupid.#i dont want an animal named e.g.mine 😭😭😭😭#omfg rai-dei. what the fuck should rai-dei be. none of the animals feel like a rai-dei. maybe i'll make him a duck.#theres leonof... ugh. i dont want a leonof. or a ninelives. fuck those guys.#oh my god how could i almost forget legato??? maybe i'll make him a 2nd void chicken. OH WAIT NO#HE COULD BE ONE OF THOSE BLUE CHICKENS!!! THATS PERFECT!!!!#idk im still working on upgrading my barn and coop so this isnt happening in full for a while still#but i am Thinking About It........#u can see how well my manga reading is going lmao. oh well. at least im having fun.

how even 140 acres in one family for 60 years can develop its own myths
The rumor of a baby buried somewhere in the woods
If you sing near the old lane of the farm that used to be on the hill, the mean old former owner will kill you because he hated singing.
The Haunted Tree, which has a chain embedded in it, hollow tree which keeps living for decades-- if you knock on the tree and listen to it 3 times, and don't hear anything the 3rd time, the tree will swallow you up.
And of course the stories from when mom was a kid on the farm, and stories from when we stayed on the farm with our cousins....
