Coffee anyone ?

Suspect you might not get picked...drowned rats rarely are. But, how'd it go, fashionista?

They only sent one group up to the court. The rest of us sat around for a couple hours and then they sent us home. Off the hook for a year now -- I think the boots are my lucky charm.

I see where the OK Brand sheep and goat wire I’ve been using is now gone up to $450 per roll. Local store has 8 rolls at the last “old” price of $420. Guess who won’t be running over there to buy them all? Will these prices EVER go down? Or will the price finally quit going up and level off, the “new” forever price? February 2022, price was $250 per roll, had just gone up $20.

Yikes on the fencing cost. Makes me glad that I told DH to hang on to the roll we had left from fencing last year and the pile of t posts too.
Sadly I don't see any prices coming down. At least not in our lifetime. At least not down to any price that would be lower. With alfalfa at $31 for a 3 strand bale I don't see it ever being the old $15/bale that I was paying Jan 2020.

Once up, prices rarely come back down -- not enough anyway. We adjust as much as we can. Not fun.

I have gotten some "free" seeding from my hay. When I feed in good weather, in pastures that are down from dormancy, I toss pads in various areas. There's some seed head that finds dirt. The little bit of waste hay covers it, goats fertilize it and grass grows! It is some waste -- but no more than dropping from feeders In barn ... Which becomes bedding at least I get over seeding outside..

It's coffee and "?". A little damp & chilly out, overcast. Need to turn on some bright lights inside to motivate! . I have a not so neat stack of "to do lists" to choose. First feed, then milk.

Chris camo over yesterday evening and put a sensor on the mule. It needed a mounting bracket. Said he had one at home and he’ll be back this morning to finish up. I’m excited! I sure need that mule for fencing. It’s a long walk to carry tools otherwise.

He set 2 bales of hay for me. I knew he was coming so I baked a batch of chocolate chip cookies to send home with him for the kids.

Got taxes stuff turned in to the CPA, now she can figure it all out.

Rain, wind and cold again today. Supposed to be the last of it and then another comes in next Wed.
With all the rain, and totally overcast days there's no way I could have existed in the PNW, glad we didn't take that plunge.
On the plus side, the fig trees are leafing out.

Looking out your window to see about 20 goats in the yard will sure change the order of your daily chore plans! They come to a feed can but, also to my opening the door and walking off the porch!!! Woohoo escapees return. I was a little late today???

Everyone back in -- gate hinge fixed -- and walked fence line. Never a dull moment. I'm just glad I was already dressed hey, now only last half of a day to deal with.

At least the sun has come out.

I was doing a Clarkson's Farm search on here. I saw it mentioned a few times. We watched both seasons on Prime, and LOVED LOVED the show. Yes, lots of people were Donkey's A's, but it was entertaining and a tiny bit educational. Too bad JC badmouthed Meghan in a very horrible way, leading to A firing his show. I sure hope the contracts in place will allow Season three to be shown in the US.

I've watched several episodes. It was entertaining, but I kept wondering how much was 'mugging' for the cameras. I mean - even with the dumb stuff I do every day, some of his escapades might have been beyond me (I hope)

I LOVE that show. When I first saw it I don't think I ever laughed that hard. I love that he's brining ag to the tv screen in a very real way.
Yup heard about the scuff up and ?? about season 3 (which is being filmed or has been already). With the popularity I would hope to believe that season 3 will air.
