Coffee anyone ?

Ugh. Dead ewe this morning. Wedged her head in the bars of a hay feeder with “the ingenuity of the suicidal” quoting Gene Logsdon. Her lamb is old enough to wean thankfully. Caddo went on a four hour walkabout. I saw him periodically but he was gone by the time I could reach him. He’s grounded. Moses is doing well. He’s steering clear of the lambs. The Racka lambs are growing fast. Horns are just starting and appear to be substantial and wide set. I’ve been looking for other Rackas but no luck. No luck with shearers either. Hubbs and I will just have to roll up our sleeves. I have a great deal of respect for people who processed wool before electric shears.

I was awake before the 5:25am alarm, but not by much, so I guess I'm getting back into work hours and routine.

I'm sleeping through the night most of the time.

Little rain starting up....cold rain. Maybe 1/2" coming overnight. Never got to 40 today and that's after 68 & sun yesterday! rollercoaster time.

Coffee is ready. I’ll be working on the hoop coop today. I need to go to town and buy a few things, hinges and such. And a tarp for it.

At work, making more progress this week on "catch up". It's as if a bit of brain fog has lifted, good!


Cold and rainy, doubt I will be working on the coop today once I get home.


Maybe tonight I'll create a waterer...I have a 5 gallon bucket and the cups. I've got feeding ports, too, could make a feeder as well.
