Coffee anyone ?

Morning everyone.
@Duckfarmerpa1 check with your health department, they are the ones here in Indiana that enforce the cottage laws. I hope you got your kits.
@Mini Horses hoping you weren't up for nothing.

Not sure what a cottage law is? I email a lady at dept of agriculture...we’ll see where it gets me

Texas has a whole lot easier cottage law......who has a commercial kitchen? Lab testing? Gheesh.

Lots of luck, you're gonna need it.

Oh, thanks a ton! Wonder why my state is different...goofy!!

So, my ipad just gave me a weather update...not rain....freezing rain starts at 7:24....ugh....wish us luck

The weather newscasters are warning everybody about the storms coming tonight. They have been talking this up since Monday. I have to laugh, they all say to hide in the basement. WTH? A basement? In Texas? Do these morons not know what geographical location they are in? Nobody has a basement here, the water table is too high for that. A lot of houses are built off the ground on blocks, depending on the weight of the building to hold it down. And they said if you are in a mobile home, LEAVE! Really? This Doublewide Diva ain't going anywhere and if I did, where? This storm stretches from one end of Texas up to the whole durned country, so just where am I leaving to that ain't hours and hours away? Dummies.

Oh and now they are touting emergency kits, water, batteries, radio, 3 day supply of food and water, change of clothes, work gloves, a week's supply of medication, shelter in place, don't get in your car and try to outrun a tornado and if you are in a mobile home, get in your car and try to outrun a tornado. Or get in a ditch or low place, my doesn't THAT sound attractive! We have a gully that exits out property, with towering trees on both sides, we do live Behind The Pine Curtain here, ya' know. So we run out in the pounding rain and 80 MPH winds to the gully, the tornado passes over and we look like a porky-PINE with a ga-zillion pine toothpicks embedded in our hides? Maybe we can just sit in our doublewide and get transported to the Land of Oz. Now where did I put those ruby slippers?

 

[Mini Horses]

you need a good cup! Got kids yet?

2:00 no kids -- went to bed. 6:30 no kids. That's fine. She's still isolated herself on outside of run-in, under big overhang area. Didn't go in & check her but, at 2: only light swelling & she wasn't gonna get a lig check. Will do that at feeding in about half hr or so. All others laying in shed. It's good. Everyone is quiet.

Me? I had pot ready to just turn on & brew so it was ready when I came back in. Smelled great. Drinking some now. Ahhh...sinfully good! Now I can relax. Hey, even got 4hr of Zzzz. No need to complain.

It's only 34 out & going to mid 60s. Tomorrow & Sun are our 70s days. Ooops. Still great weather if she is ready. 2nd freshening. Looks like twins will happen again.

Now I can enjoy coffee, feed, take the possum away & relocate it on way to TSC. Get back, unload, check everyone, shower & head to work. Goat auction tomorrow.

Ok..it seems as if sell eggs, even out of my sister in laws store, doesnot require a lisence....but, to make salted eggs, I need the cottage law lisence...it’s $35...a lot of paperwork. I’m going to try the recipe and see if it’s even worth it first..someone on the the BYC forum said they read it’s pretty difficult. Plus... I have to see if they’re tasty too..?? But, thank you sooo much for the info...I might have gotten myself into trouble if I’d have tried to sell them without a. License ....

Yay!!! Now the new is giving tips for driving in the rain! I got a better idea! Just STAY HOME and wait for the tornado!

Trip to TSC not happened … going soon.

Put out hay, goaties came to feed....except one who was apparently waiting for them to clear the barn, in she goes.

I quickly set up fresh bedding in birthing corner...shooed her in and she delivered almost immediately.

9:06 a buck & 9:11 a doe.
She's cleaning and talking to them. I need to get to TSC !! All is well. I expect a couple more will kid within a week or two from their looks.

 

[frustratedearthmother]

YAY for babies and an easy delivery! Woo Hoo! I've got months to go before I get new little ones...
