10 Things I'm Still Not Used To About Living In The Country...

The things I am still not use to about living in the country; 

1.) Manure on fields- I search my house high and low for dog poop before realizing it's the neighbours field. 

2.) Garbage burning- I find myself checking appliances and lamps to ensure there is no fire only to realize a neighbour is burning garbage.

3.) Sundays- Nothing is open, and if it is, it's not open past 4pm.

4.) Pizza- You can drive 15 minutes each way for mediocre pizza, or get delivery (Fri.& Sat. only) for a $20 fee. Bummer!

5.) Thai food- The local(ish) restaurants serve every dish mild- weird! 

6.) Gas- Don't even think about going home with less than a quarter tank of gas; bad idea! 

7.) Cats- Don't let every barn cat that wanders onto your porch inside.

8.) Mudrooms- They will have mud in them, it's unavoidable.

9.) How dark it gets at night- I still use a flash light if I need to go to the washroom or a kids room in the middle of the night. 

10.) Snakes- I don't care how small the snake is the way they move is creepy and I do not appreciate their nest next to my garden. 



This is pretty sweet though!
