    I got a call yesterday from the office manager at the tax office I've worked in for the past 6 years and she wants me to come back to work. I told her I was a little apprehensive about starting back to work since Isabella arrived, but she's offered me a pretty good raise AND more hours. Also...

    Somehow I miscalculated when my 2 Boer does were due. I had it in my mind they were due mid-January. But, accordingly to what I have on the calendar when I witnessed Pee Dee's attempts, they were bred around Sept. 8th and 15th. So, they would be due somewhere around Feb. 5th and 12th. Hmm. So...

    Scab at CD&T Injection Site - Problem?

    Some CD/T vaccinations do that. Most of the time you can avoid the abscess by rubbing the injection area for a few minutes after giving it.

    We have 4 raised bed gardens to work with, plus several large terracotta pots. She'll be 6 months old in April, which is when our garden peas will be ready. Other stuff will be coming off in the summer and fall, such as the squash and carrots. This is what the garden looked like in the spring...

    cesarean on dead cow possible?

    Any chance that the induction would cause her enough stress for her to die in the process?

    Agreed! I can really tell a difference in the taste of tomatoes of any homegrown variety when compared to some from the grocery store. The grocery store types seem... dry?

    Today I plan on getting a jump start on getting our tax stuff together. That's always a fun job. :rolleyes: In 2012, I plan on taking inventory at least once a month so it's not such a chore at the end of the year. In the meantime, I plan on looking through all of these seed catalogs I've...

    Thanks, everybody! That's our little girl, Isabella. She was awake and smiling at the puppies, so we decided to put them down in the floor together. She loved it! Since she smells like milk, the puppies were licking her and wiggling next to her. Who needs stuffed animals when you have real ones? :P

    The GP puppies are 2 weeks old today and they all have their ears and eyes open! They lift their heads to look when I come into their pen - it won't be long and they will be running to meet me at the gate. Piper is still doing fantastic and is eating 6 POUNDS of food a day, plus scrambled eggs...

    What do Great Pyreneese protect?

    Ours do as well. GP's are rather hardheaded and DO require training. Folks think they can just throw them in with their livestock and they will be ok.

    The weather was in the upper 70s here for the past 3 days. Last night we had a cold front come through plus a full moon. I also had today jotted down as Piper's due date. I figure with those 3 things, she would have the puppies within the next few days. She decided to start pushing at 11:45 last...
