Popped in just because today and saw that it was my ten year anniversary on BYH. When I first made this account I was 12 and I remember I was at my dad’s apartment sitting at the kitchen table.
Man I’m 22 now so much has changed. I wonder what my younger self would think if she saw everything...
I also wanna add one thing I’ve observed is that pigs only really try to escape if there is something they are lacking in their current environment. Thats what mine used to do at least until they were given what they needed. Now they are fat happy and havent tried to escape in a long time as far...
Visited the pigs for the first time in over a year. They all look amazing and living large!
Lucy remembers me no matter how long it has been. She was napping as seen in the picture above so i went over to her slowly talking and letting her know it was me. At first she seemed annoyed, like...
Also I had to share this photo I took of Shaddy today. Yall cant tell me he isnt an earth angel. Something about this picture truly captured his essence.
My mom actually got super into gardening last summer however I was not in the right place during that time. I find working in nature very grounding(shocking) so I’m thinking of helping her tend to everything this year. Or at least trying. Last summer she grew a lot of flowers as well. We had a...
Hi friends I just wanted to pop in and give a small update
I feel like I am starting to have more good days even tho this whole healing thing is full of ups and downs. I’ll be ok for a few days and then fall back into disassociating for a few days then have some days when its half and half. I...
I’ve been stalking this thread for the past couple weeks and I just wanted to say that you have some really pretty lambs this year. I’m sorry to hear of your losses but its just part of the process sometimes. I’m in love with the one ram lamb, he is such a cutie!
As the others have said say something and call the proper people. This is disgusting and cannot be tolerated. I experienced something similar several years ago and I can say the best thing you can do for those animals is report him. There is 0 excuses for this type of neglect.
Visited the old farm today for the first time since I left. The property has a new owner no more animals but lots of plans for the future.
A lot of my trauma around the farm revolved around the hoarding and neglect of the previous owners animals. It was a relief to see with my own eyes that no...
So we were trying to decide where to go for our family vacation. Since I’ve had had a rough year I really wanted to see them. Plus I have a friend a lil further south who I’ve known since I was 13 but we have never met in person. So today I finally get to meet her for the first time. And then we...
After almost two years I finally got to see my babies again. For those that don’t know I am from NJ and my sheep and alpacas moved to NC. One way its about 10 hours so getting the chance to get out and see them wasnt as simple as a day trip. Ive been wanting to visit for so long but due to work...
Thank for the concern guys. I’m in a therpay program right now after things got really rough back in July. The biggest thing for me was the stuff kinda came back all at once and I was so overwhelmed. It was kinda one of those situations where I’ve processed a lot of what happened on a surface...
Its been almost 8 months since I’ve seen the hogs, but I went and visited them last week. This here is queen Lu herself.
As for me I wish I could say I’m doing well but that would be a lie. Turns out repressing three years worth of trauma is bound to cause some issues further down the line...
