Warm start 46, going to 57+ Just finished morning feed chores. Lugging 100# of hay is not getting any easier from experience! Nope, still a hefty cuss to do. Then 25# of feed, fighting goats.
Now -- off to work. 🫤 Coffee in hand! 😊
I was canning last night, so now have 14 pints of chicken breast covering a counter top. I'll leave it for about a week...recheck seals, then to pantry. Caught a sale I couldn't refuse and we all know grocery prices are going up. 😞 Garden will be important this year. So many empty canning...
Hey--its been 27 years now. Some days I'll be doing a mundane thing and a memory hits like a torpedo. Love never dies. @GLENMAR you are not alone here.🥰 We really do understand. You'll adapt. You'll learn. You'll endure. You'll remember :hugs it's ok. And I've got some "boxes" of...
I have hay string in red, blue & orange. Some of these trailer loads have 21 bale "bundles" and they use a really heavy twine, it's also blue usually. Once some was white. About 3-4X thickness of the bale string and it's about 35' long 😁 real good stuff there!
We're really odd for items to...
You said lamb was "cleaned up" well. So she may have cleaned up the placenta, too. 🤷 If retained shed prob be showing some spicy signs by now. I'd keep her in a few more days to be sure.
Last of my 3dy weekend. Chores shortly and double check some fence changes from yesterday. It's a damp cold out there this morning, after rains last night. Low 40s but a good wind going on. That makes it go thru ya. Warm inside -- inviting 😁 I've got coffee to finish before I suit up and...
Minis. Go back to breeder and ask for a full sized doe, at a very reduced price, since she sold these as full and are not. If she's worth her word, she'll help you out. They can still breed the full size does -- on occasion the height difference can be a issue but, the generally figure it...
??? Really?
My mother was told to decaf -- due to meds -- but actually it's been found that coffee has many healthy benefits. So a lot of decaf instructions have waned, unless counter active for some drugs. They might want to look harder at slowing the drugs!
Rains coming today. Reporters say we need it, suppose so but, not in total agreement. It's coming anyway. Only 3/4" but all day so it'll be heavy sprinkles for hours! 😵💫 Chores done. Guess it's inside for today. Laundry done up yesterday -- leaves the dreaded "cleaning"... Or a nice nap 🤫
Car repaired.....had shut down on way home from work. Had it towed home next morning. I felt it had to do with heater -- which had stopped heating 2 wks prior.
Soooo...today DS checked it out. Yes, heater issue resolved also. The hose going to it had split, liquids draining. Because it...
It gets the job done!! Used & free are perfect. Another re-purposer here. I've had some successes at various auctions where the bldg materials weren't an item many bidders wanted....obviously not farm auctions 😂
Barn clean outs to garden....I never need to buy fertilizers. Save seeds...
Happy that Layne got Max set up. May be temporary but, such a relief for you. Stress doesn't help you back pain! Plus he's right there to see & touch.🥰
