Well the name Tuesday is more fitting, because she was born on a Tues.

Ah a jokester too...I was thinking of the Adam's Family movie at the time and their daughter is named Wednesday but the cria isn't creapy yet, lol.

I was going to suggest Cinnamon.

Marlow, I almost named her mom that.
Well the Wife and I talked about names last night and decided we liked Daisy.
Clove and Daisy got their shots today and are doing fine. Daisy likes to prance in the creeks shallows in the mid day sun.
The crazy barn cat was sent off to a nearby farmer that we don't like as is accidently killed one of our former dogs but he has a rat problem and the cat will help.

Long day or it felt like it. Finished replacing boarding on side of the cattle barn. Back bothering me again, ugh. Enjoying Butter Cups milk and cream. Family likes it too. Selling all my Angus off at decent price.

Well Doctor says to rest for a week and take pain meds as needed. Should be interesting. Going to have the neighbor kid come over after school and milk Butter Cup and do feeding chores, wife is still doing morning milking, which she oddly enjoys. She says its the quiet of the morning and the animals are much calmer, which is true. Before I rested I put a full alfalfa bale in for the bucks, should last them a week as they have some grass too. Cows still have loads of grass so they don't need anything except some salt blocks. Just having him check on Clove and Daisy once a day, other wise they should be fine. Starting to add hay for the Goats so the kid will do that and just check on all the other livestock, feeding chickens, collecting eggs, refill waterers, etc.

It is nice that you have someone that will do that. The kids around here are lazy and I would never be able to count on any of them to do things.

I hope your back gets better soon. I know what an inconvenience it is when there are so many farm chores to do.

 

[77Herford]

So bored.

 

[daisychick]

Sorry about your back and your boredom. It is complete chaos at my house, with crazy daycare kids, dogs escaping the yard and running around eating chicken feed and throwing it up on the back step, and other fun activities. So I guess just be thankful it is peaceful and quiet at your house.

Sorry about your back 77.

I'm glad you have someone to help out though.
