Good afternoon all! 
It's a decently day today so far. 87* currently. Might stay under 90* today. Maybe.
Been working on putting together my vitamins and supplements in prep for my next run home. Sometimes making them seems to take minutes. Sometimes it seems to drag on. Still have a couple to make but I'll do it tomorrow maybe. Working on getting things together so once I'm sure I can go I won't have much to do to get out of here.
All the calves nursed this morning. I love that her response to "stop" nursing is to lay down. That's pretty funny. I'm good with it right now. Keeps the two older calves from overeating as much. Need to do a scour check here in a bit and see if anyone has an upset tummy. I saw this morning that the two heathens started nursing her after she laid down.
Persistent little brats. They didn't seem to nurse long but they did get some so they may be over eating a little bit. Going to turn out the previous heifer and her two calves now that she's off duty for the two newest grafts. That will be a good bit off the feed bill for a while. She'll probably get reduced in grain too. The grass has nutrition at the moment. Won't for long but we'll take every break we can get. I think when I get back home I'll try and find some feed to bring back to CA since I'll have an empty trailer. Maybe save some $ on feed for the remainder of the time we're here. I am happy to say the tax lady said we can write off the fuel expenses for taking the ranching stuff to MO. That's a bit of a relief. We can't write off the non ranch trips fuel but we can write off any ranch related trips fuel. 
We'll take it.
Still waiting to hear from the tax lady. I'm not looking forward to what she's going to have to say. Oh well. It will be done and I can stop thinking about it and get onto moving.
Well I need to get eggs on to boil so I can make DH his deviled eggs. I was supposed to make them yesterday but the cow happened and that took priority.
Y'all have a fantastic evening!
