Good Morning!--Chat thread

You didn't break anything? Isn't that extremely noteworthy?

Between the cold weather, rain, and now break downs I don't think we are ever going to get first cut done. On the other hand the oats are off. They didn't do well though. At least we're not the only ones still doing first cut. Seems everyone else is still at it too.

Yep, me not breaking anything is almost scary! I am kinda afraid to even start round 2!
I might have him put on the brush-hog for me tomorrow! I didn't even make it across the field last year! This year I have 2 brush-hogs to break!

To be honest, I kinda feel guilty getting our first round done when we did! Our hay looks real good this year and it seems like everybody else is having our rain and my breakdowns!

dont feel bad im still waiting on the custom baler to show up.but the truth is he gets in no hurry to bale the hay.an since its so dry dont know if its going to make enough hay.an hope for rain so we can get a fall cutting.if not i know where i can get hay.but thats a 30mi haul.

Good morning,

It's raining and blowing here which is good because we need it! The bull's courting Bridgit this a.m. - day 21 in her cycle is tomorrow, so that's excellent. Calves are through bawling and seem to be settling into their new digs without their mothers. In all, it was a successful weekend. The only bummer is I heard back from that guy who thought he wanted to buy T-Bone and he doesn't like our price. I emailed him back to see what he had in mind so I can see how much lower it is than ours (and ours is $400 less than two other local Highland bull calves currently listed for sale). :*(

Good morning everybody!

Decided I'm taking today off!
So, I went back to bed after Hubby left!
Now I have to feed the critters, pay some bills, water some plants, do some laundry, vacuum the house and find the kitchen!
Don't really sound like much of a day off does it?

Amy, glad your calves are finally quieting down!

Morning!

Finished my morning choirs, going to sit a spell, maybe take a tiny nap before heading back outside. Hope everyone has a great day!

Should have stayed in bed!!! I slept in (7:30), had to unload the water tank, DS got shocked from the pump (DS is okay), DH had taken my car and took my purse with it-running late so decide to get donuts-only have a credit card (cause DH took purse) for a 6 dollar purchase of donuts-they don't take that card so can't get donuts-notice that I had left the hubs locked on DH's pickup when driving in to town(DH would not be pleased)-get purse, have to go to McD's for breakfast-so late that they are by then on dinner menu-finish neighbors chores-come home to work on barn roof-DH took the only tape measure with him AND my house is a sty!!!!!

(I guess really not that bad, but seriously!!!!!)

Just had my "second-last" driver's in-car lesson yesterday evening; found that I'm improving quite a lot...since hey, practicing makes the lessons go smoother don't they? My instructor and I agreed that I needed to take an extra lesson or two so that I can pass; a lot of stuff to cover in only 10 hours of in-car lesson time!

Too windy today to do much; but it was warm enough to do some weeding in the garden, provided the wind made sure I got a lot of dirt in my sandals!

I took some beautiful sunset photos last night so I might post some on here in a little while.
