Gone Country/ Road Kill

View From the New House

So I am a few weeks into my new Country Home and the time has FLOWN by. So I guess I have officially been inducted into country living as I hit some sort of furry animal on the road the other day. I believe it was a ground hog. I wish I could tell you that I hit it on some back country road but I would be lying. I actually hit it on a State Route 104. I was going about 60 MPH along with a bunch of other cars going the same way in a two lane highway. There wasn't much I could do, I swerved a little but couldn't avoid it and then the lady in the car behind me also swerved. Obviously I don't like to kill animals, I am a vegetarian after all, but it does happen. I'v been warned about the deer on my road. I've seen deer three times now in my yard and side yard. Apparently in these parts, many get hit by cars on the road I live on.

The Country Project...

My Facebook Status Tonight:

I am going to write a new book called, "The Country Project, Or why I spent a year trying to countrify myself, silly stories of a suburbanite gone country, and tales of apple orchards, country music, trucks, bon fires and square dancing." We have a close date!!!!! :-)

You've probably noticed I haven't been posting as much since I am up to my ears in boxes. I do like my book idea, for those of you that haven't read it or don't know about it yet, it is a spoof on the already existing book called "The Happiness Project, Or, Why I Spent a Year Trying to Sing in the Morning, Clean My Closets, Fight Right, Read Aristotle, and Generally Have More Fun." This incidentally is a really good book that my book club read.

Gotta run to pack more boxes the country is calling....
