About Me

January 2022 - it seems like it has been awhile since I have updated my profile...so here it goes...

Hi! My name is Jill... I am a Wanna be World Traveler...baby-stepping across the globe! The yucky pandemic really put a damper on our โ€œnewly retiredโ€ goals of doing a lot of travel...but, my husband and I are now both fully vaccinated and we look forward to getting back in the world again soon!

When we are not traveling ...my husband and I live in a sweet 1938 Cape Cod in the heart of Louisville, Kentucky, that we have affectionately named, โ€œOrpington Cottageโ€. It has a warm rustic European farm feel.

We grow our own herbs and vegetables, compost, try to reduce our footprint, reuse, recycle, and enjoy our own farm-fresh eggs with our backyard laying hens (we have 1 Buff Orpington and 2 Lavender Orpingtons and 2 Lavender Lace Orpingtons!). Not only do they lay the best tasting eggs on earth...but they are also the sweetest lap hens you could ever wish for!

MY AMBERLEIGH LIFE:

On Swapbot, in a group called โ€œAt Home With The Georgettesโ€, I represent a Regency/Georgian Era Character named: Priscilla Anne Ackley and husband her, Elmer James Ackley, owners and proprietors of Ackley Dairy Farm supplying eggs and milk to the village and surrounding area. We keep a special journal for our swaps pertaining to this period. You can find more information about this group in the above Blog Link near the top of this page.

SOME OTHER FUN FACTS ABOUT ME:

  • I have a Swap Group on Swapbot that I started in 2019 it is called : 5Heart Swappers - come and find us...or private message me to join if you meet our groupโ€™s criteria.

  • I am a mom of one human child, Ashley ๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿผ (female, 25) living with us here in Louisville, KY with her gorgeous Pomsky, Odin....they had been living in Dublin, Ireland for almost 4 years and now they are living their best lives with a new job and new home close to us!

  • I am a mom of two feline children, Charley๐Ÿ˜บ (male, 17) and Clementine ๐Ÿˆ (female, 6)

  • I am a mom of five feathered children, Leota Mae ๐Ÿ“(Buff Orpington) (d), Matilda Jane ๐Ÿ“(Buff Orpington), Violet Grace ๐Ÿ“(Lavender Orpington), Petunia Sue ๐Ÿ“(Lavender Orpington) (d), and Opal Marie ๐Ÿ“(Lavender Orpington), Alberta Anna (Lavender Lace Orpington), Gertrude Kate ๐Ÿ“ (Lavender Lace Orpington) (d), and Dolores Agnes (Lola)๐Ÿ“ (Lavender Lace Orpington).

Comment: My dear Mrs. Ackley, What an exquisite flower! And your unusual pet, Matilda Jane, brings back wonderful memories of my own sweet, gentle hens, I used to have. Beautiful Matilda Jane evokes sentiments of a happy time in my life. I wish I could hold her and pet her. I will be submitting my entries for the fete on the morrow, if time and duties permit. Most sincerely, Ellen Emberhope of Foxgrove Cottage, Amberleigh
