Hope there’s not a personal story in that one! Lol. Hey, it’s been eight years and every imaginable cure or relief pretty much has been tried. Between sowing fields right next to our house or the constant humidity and mold. My fam just can’t breathe. Any suggestions they’ll try, but nothing...

Alright, so much to do so little time. Started school, going for nursing. Have to get in the program, which means finish CNA, classes start sooner than I’d like to think about right now. I’m doing a full semester of the classes that are required but aren’t nursing right now; chem, psych...

Alright. Got a more definite moving date. About two years from now. Why, you may ask? I realized that real estate was not for me. So, like any sane person, I decided to become a nurse. Surprisingly, I’m not hating college just yet, thought I would. In any case, NC is way easier to get into a...

Don’t forget about jello. It might appease your toddler, but it’s more liquid than not, so might be safe.

Yes, I can buy those at the feed store. I’ll do what I have to do, But I really wish there was a non-permanently altering identification for my animals ya know. And no local cattle barn. Nearest livestock auction is a couple hours away, and they don’t even do cattle on the regular. Would that...

How do I get those papers? We’ve bought all our goats with cash handed on time of sale, mostly from local farmers who have probably never kept records. Not shady, just a small town(used to be) where everyone knows everyone and only so many people have goats. Then, there’s the born here. No ear...

It’s all about fun, when they’re outside it’s fun to go after mice. When they’re inside it’s more entertaining to watch you do it!

You can always use some iodine to clean it off. That’s pretty much my answer for everything though.

My sincere apologies. I meant no offense or to take a serious situation too lightly. I do suspect we have very similar feelings towards those who hurt others, and not particularly nice ones.

Hey, the kids get free Spanish lessons!

Oh my gosh no! It can’t already be seed starting time! 😃

I’m right between two feed stores. Yikes it gets a little crazy, where chicken feed should be is castration tools and where needles are there’s actually hay. I think I have to just stick to one to keep my sanity.

Romans 8:28 And He will work all things together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose.

Truly! What’s funny is my neighbors pony used to love the snow and cold, would kick up her heels like crazy. After she hit around thirty this year she is nearly shelter sour. Barely leaves on cold days and will only kinda peek her head out when it’s raining. During the snow I don’t know if I’ve...

Y’all are lucky to have animals that don’t mind the cold. I have one goat who keeps trying to get in the house behind the dogs. She is not a fan of wet, cold or otherwise. The others just look betrayed that I’m allowing the nature thermostat do this to them.

I so want a pack goat! As far as halters you might be able to find someone or learn how to tie a rope halter. You can also make your own, the supplies will probably be at hobby lobby, and webbing isn’t as hard to sew as it looks. That is, if your other options don’t work.

Over 1,000 miles, probably closer to 2,000. Depending on where we find a house. Texas is the top but Arizona isn’t out of the running. Lot of unknowns. About 3 days of travel straight, we usually take a little longer though.

A whole new adventure in itself. We don’t have a livestock vet. The nearest one doesn’t like to (when I say don’t like I mean they don’t) take on new patients either. That may have changed recently, so I’ll have to call around. The best bet is to wait for the once or twice a year the mobile vet...

My family and I have actually lived in central TX for about 7 years off and on. It is far better than here because it doesn’t have the mold problems or as much grass. If you know a better place for allergies, that doesn’t get cold, I’m all ears. To my advantage, my goats are middle aged to...
