Getting cup #2. A rooster was on my porch, raising cain...went shoo & shut up, my gaze sees 6 goaties across Rd in mans hay field 😱. Just came in from calling them home and back into a field. Now -- out to find the new escape, then repairs :he

It's too early for this!! And, it's wet out, overnight 🌧️

@Baymule :lol:

A top bar had come off a fence stretch. Fixed it, not a big issue to do. They were going into a field that does have a big space with NO fence -- spot between new & old, where a tree needs to be removed. 🤷

Actually there's a goat auction today & I had planned to take 3 or 4 but didn't get separated yesterday -- rain! BUT looking at FB page, I see a total goat herd dispersal there today of 90-100 😱. Not my kind of of day!! Prices will not be especially good, so I'll pass. Glad I saw that!!! Wasn't posted yesterday morning.

Coffee and yogurt today. All the dogs have serious zoomies. I came in, having been injured in zoomie incidents in the past. I’m glad they feel good. My 75 hard exercise plan was terminated by a trip to the ER for an infected spider bite. What followed was a comedy of errors that included four liters of iv fluids I didn’t know i needed, a lot of doxycycline, an anxious nurse, then blood pressure readings almost off the scale, multiple meds administered to correct pressure and some guy named Dave (doctor? emt? janitor?) who meandered in and out making observations such as “Hmm. Why’d they give you This?” and “You don’t seem to like hospitals, huh?”
I told him after that alien abduction I never felt the same about them. Hours had elapsed. I rose to leave. Nurse told me that she and doctor would be in trouble allowing me to go. Hmm. Went home, Hubbs fed the sheep, I fed him some dinner and blew the froth off a couple hoping I wouldn’t crash from the low pressure meds. Felt fine all week, restarted 75 hard yesterday.
Addendum- research and a conversation with my paramedic brother indicates that iv fluids often raise blood pressure especially when added too quickly. Doxycycline also can raise blood pressure especially in large amounts.

Since this is the Coffee thread - how about my trip to the pottery show and of course what I brought home. Totally predictable :lol: mugs in the dishwasher now soon to be used. Sheep - well I can't resist since it kinda looks like one of the new ewes.

I want the middle one!!

Is the sheep pottery or metal?? And, is it new or vintage? I have never seen anything like it.

Coffee is ready. Its another foggy white out. Not supposed to rain today or for the next 10 days. I need to worm lambs again, saw a tapeworm segment in one of the lambs poop. Maybe tomorrow. Church this morning, I'll ride my mule, have friends follow me home and take me back to get my car.

Foggy here, too. Humidity 97?😳🤷 Rain last night. Supposed to get another 1"+ today 😞. So dreary. Hot. Wet. Annoying. Not needed. Not happy. Looks like rain begins after lunch, lingering into night time. Forgot to pick up chick feed during Fri errands. Guess I'll go get that & a bag of cat food before it starts.

Even coffee doesn't help much. Another day inside.
