Howdy, just downed my coffee, only took an hour and a half. Thought it might be nice weather this morning when it said it was 30 out. It turns out in a place like this, you might want to check the windchill. And in fact the temp is currently 28, with a windspeed of 29. Fun game we like to play when the windspeed gets higher than the temp.
Y'all have a great day and enjoy the weather!

My day was started with heavy fog. Had coffee and waited for some lift to see to do chores. Went to town for a sensor for my truck -- hopefully the cure. 🤣 Will arrive tomorrow morning. Went on to work. Truck behaved well until last store and had a little hiccup starting. Said a few naughty words 😡 it started. Ran fine. Storms rolling in as predicted. Sky full of big, dark clouds. Had to get home.

Hurried to feed and found a new set of twins :love one black, one white doeling's. Experienced mom had both dried and fed! Gotta love it. Penned them for night, bottled my one guy, and rains plummeted us. Ran in, offed wet clothes and ate. Turned on TV.

Hefty winds, more rain and gone almost as fast as it came. 😲. News showed a lot of bad stuff had whipped on by the farm. Quick tornado about 15 miles SE of me. Went back out to close coops and in for night. Long day and I'm ready for some serious sleep.

Tomorrow I'll play with new kids, milk some colostrum to freeze and wait for auto parts to arrive so I can go get. Then need to install, probably 1-1.5 hr ? After that I'll change out of mechanic clothes and get to work. Off for weekend and can hardly wait! o_O:old

@Jesusfreak101 glad you got a picture! We know after 5 min with kids it won't be that way long.:lol::love

:caf up way too early but, slept so well...it'll be ok. Can't wait for daylight so I can go love on those new kids. This weekend I need to organize for milking to start as I have several does I want to milk share with kids, to keep production up. After weaning, they're full time milkers. :). Last year didn't really milk much and dried everyone off.

Off to a good start today! It finally stopped raining. We had about 2" overnight. Seems we might even get a peek at the sun today! We have a River Flood Warning until Saturday at 0400, but we are far enough away that it won't be a problem for us. Just localized flooding that we can avoid on different roads.

Having a cup of coffee while I plan out the next several days. Yesterday, the first set of 2 dogs went to the vet for their yearly exam. Today the other 2 go to the Vet.

I have to order some hay from Agway and go pick it up. I need to drive an hour north to a feed store that carries a specific brand that my breeder feeds her goats. Then I can slowly transition our new goats to another feed.

I have to move our professional dog kennels into the garage because our goats are coming before our barn. Just the way it worked out but it will be fine. Goats and barn are expected the week after Easter.

We are anticipating visitors one day next week in the middle of the madness. My FIL's parents are coming up to visit them, and they want to all take a day trip up here so the parents can meet their Great Grandson. Hopefully they give me at least one days notice 🙏.

Then next weekend is Easter, and the same in-laws are coming up to have a meal with us. I'm tired just thinking about it! Hallelujah where's the coffee? 😂
