When sweeping up goat and sheep droppings as usual, I spotted something small and shiny in the soil. After cleaning it and examining it closely with a magnifying glass, I saw an inscription; it was a platinum bracelet set with a small diamond. That design is likely an accessory for a young girl; the chain is as fine as a spider's thread. Apparently, people have lived on this land since ancient times, and the house standing here now is the third one to be occupied by a family—ours being the third. I have no idea who dropped it or where they came from. We are not related to them by blood.
I felt as though Mary had given it to me, so I keep it in my jewelry box.

I am trying to expand the area for the goats and sheep, but the soil is hard and the grass won't grow well.
It's terribly hot every day ! Be careful of heatstroke.
