When life on the homestead takes an unexpected turn, it can shake you to your core. In this heartfelt episode, I share the emotional journey of the past two weeks with my beloved cow, Dixie. What began as an ordinary day spiraled into a life-or-death fight as severe mastitis set in and escalated in less than 18 hours. With her pregnancy at risk and her life hanging in the balance, we faced fear, prayerful desperation, and a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness.

Now that Dixie is on the mend—and her calf still thriving—I’m reflecting on the lessons I learned about acting quickly, leaning on my faith, and holding onto hope for her full recovery. Whether you’re a fellow homesteader, an animal lover, or someone in need of encouragement during a hard season, this episode is a testament to resilience, gratitude, and trust in God’s plan.

This week on the homestead, things didn’t quite go according to plan. Our AI attempt with the cow didn’t take, the chickens are dealing with mites and lice (again), and my batch of meat bird chicks arrived short a few fluffballs. But that’s farm life — unpredictable, gritty, and still beautiful in its own way. In this episode, I’m sharing the highs, the lows, and how I’m choosing to stay grounded and grateful, even when the to-do list turns into a “try again next week” list. Whether you’re farming, dreaming of it, or just in a season of life where nothing is going to plan — this one’s for you.
