Coffee anyone ?

Well, I just turned this morning's leftover coffee into iced coffee. I put sugar, cream and ice, stir it up, feet up, kicked back in recliner.

Not a fan of cold coffee but too often that's how I end up drinking mine.

I buy it at Starbucks, so why not mix me one up at home.

Morning all. Officially one week out from surgery. This is driving me nuts. Im going crazy just sitting here. DS3 is doing an amazing job of taking care of the chores but it bugs me when I can't even feed the animals.
Anyway, The ducklings are growing like weeds. Chickens are laying like mad and Im getting the gardem planned out. Around here we plant on mother's day.

It won't be long and you will be back at your regular routine. Sometimes you just gotta suck it up and do what has to be done, no matter how crazy it makes you. LOL

I normally like my coffee hot and straight up. BUT I have had a couple cold coffee that are ok. That is the only time I do like cream and just a touch of sugar in the coffee. Maybe drink a couple during the summer. They are "better" on a hot, hot day! TX has that covered, right Bay?

Had 5 broodies and now, I see 6. Poor RIR had a lovely nest in a corner, mounted feed tub. I noticed this week that a hen had been adding eggs when the RIR left for a daily "business" break. Tonight I go out and see the RIR sit on the top board at the front wall of the stall, making little moaning noises. What's up with that? Walked over to check if something had happened as she was all huddled on the nest this morning and there on the nest, the hen who had been laying those eggs!!! No time to settle this right then -- I had milking to do. So...in AM I will need to be the "hen cop" and move everyone around. Including the two RIRs in the goat barn sharing a nest & 4 eggs. They will each get a new clutch and those 4 will go in with the hen who is setting 4 eggs & a golf ball. It's that time of year!

One goat doe is being milked & feeding twins Always an over producer. I noticed a full sister is going to need to be milked starting tomorrow, also with twins. I held off for a week on this last one but, just huge amounts and I do use them for milking on a regular basis, kids are fat and beginning to nibble grass, etc. It's all good. Only 1X day for a couple weeks, then 2X. Just a lot more chore time that's hard to find when I'm working jobs 50-60 hrs a week this time of year. Juggle!! That's why my computer time is

2:30 AM . Gotta go to bed! Up at 6.

@Mini Horses you need more rest that that! Yesterday we ran errands, starting with going to the other side of Canton to get a mini tiller. I've been looking at them, they start about $300 and up. Found this one for $30. It hasn't been run in 2 years. We took it straight to our friend, Robert. he's going to put new fuel lines on it, clean the carburator and all that good stuff. Then he gets to use it too.
