Waiting on daylight. Not thrilled with body wake ups but, to bed at 9, up at 4. Had 11 hr work day yesterday, chores at each end and 1/2 hr drive. Right to sleep when I hit the bed!

Waking to a warm 50, dropping to 40 and rain for sure. 40s days all week 20s nights and that's actually pretty normal temps for now. Foggy out there now!! Back to work today. Rain off/on all week. And a goat due "any day" first of season. A lot more due starting 10 days out. Lilly has kid movement so optimistic for her delivery. Hoping she's 3 weeks out, for more udder healing. Field bred over 2 week of dates.

TV news shows TX is having winter today. . Cold and ice. You guys stay home, off roads. Be safe.

I’ve and snow staying north of me. I’m now close enough to the Gulf coast now that I am spared SOME of the ice storms. It’s cold and wet, but above freezing.

Black coffee this morning, used last of heavy cream. I thought Monday was my last therapy day, but Wednesday is. I may go to store and look for alternative coffee cream, although black coffee isn’t bad.

Tired of rain, tired of wet cold. Sheep are muddy, dogs are particular where they put their feet. I layer up to meet the wet cold and come back in like a soggy piece of bread. I start the morning already looking forward to a hot shower in the evening and done. I feel sorry for Buford the puppy. Even though he has one of the drier places, it’s still wet. I pile hay up but ground is saturated.

Whine, complain, and gripe.

Inky delivered twin doelings, both black.
Dark out, they're black -- no pics.

Everyone up and nursed. Does both cleaned out. I cleaned it up. Moms fed & more hay/water. Milked out 3 pints colostrum for vet. Huge, full udders. Both are milkers. And -- Lilly shows no issues on stitched side. You can really see the Boer noses on these boys . The girl has lot of spots as she dries. Good start. Everything went smooth.

Thank goodness that Lilly is not showing problems on the stitched side. That's a pretty good day considering you were afraid of losing her kids from the injury and "fixing it"....
