The demo was slow going as it was bitter cold and snowing and folks just don't wanna walk downtown in those conditions. I got the opportunity to educate a few folks and made a few sales, so it wasn't a loss by any means. Plus I have to volunteer time in the store every month so my time went toward that as well.
Today has been one of those days that you need a do over.
Rollie (rabbit) had babies this morning. 4 of them and as of tonight there are no survivors. It was her first litter, so hopefully next time will go better. They were born on the wire and it's bitter cold today.
K cut herself this evening...right on the webbing between the thumb and forefinger of her writing hand. Had to go to the ER for stitches - 2 of them, which she wasn't a bit happy about.

She's having such a struggle just getting dressed this morning. You never realize how much you use your thumb and forefinger unless you cannot use it.
I'm sitting here listening to Scottie bouncing off the walls (quite literally). The moment he hears people in the morning he wants his ba.

poor K - hugs and more hugs. My boy stepped on a nail this weekend - it didn't go deep, but did draw blood. He's up to date on his shots, so we didn't go to the er and as of this morning you can't even tell. In fact, that same night when I was washing him in the bath he said snatched his foot from me and yelled "No, no, no, not my foot - it hurts!!" Well, come to find out, the nail went in the other foot Tell K that girls handle things waaaay better than boys any day!!

As I sit here typing this, Boingo is in the laundry room cuddling with Scottie. He loves that little goat and Scottie loves him just as much. I worry about Boingo when Scottie must go outside in a few weeks. He got depressed when Beanie died, I'm afraid he'll do the same when Scottie is taken away. They are so sweet together, but I just cannot have a house goat.
I have to work at Harvest this afternoon and will be taking in some Valentine's Hot Chocolate Stick Bouquets to sell. The wrapping on the sticks is done to make them look like roses. In case I didn't say before, I have to volunteer 8 hours in the store each month to have my products sold there. I do it in 2 hour blocks on Fridays.

How are the Hot Chocolate Stick Bouquets made? I'd be interested to try something like that for Valentine gifts for Logan's teachers.elevan said:

My recipe for hot chocolate sticks is a secret but you could do a simpler version of them.
Take big campfire marshmallows and dip them in chocolate. Put a stick in them and let them dry. Wrap them in pink or red cellophane bags and twist tie them, then turn the bag ends up to create the rose. I have a pic on my farm facebook page. Then place them in jars that are decorated with ribbon or tie them to a foam wreath that's wrapped in ribbon.

I'm about to just give up. The kids shut up the coop last night and shut Cinni (our best chicken mama) in the door last nite...literally her neck was shut in the door. I am so mad, so disgusted and so fed up. If one thing goes right, 2 more go wrong. What an awful way to die.
