I'm so sorry. These setbacks are frustrating but you've got a great attitude. Keep that up & you'll weather all the storms (pun intended@Margali its been a busy time trying to clean up after the stormthe hay shed was completely uncovered when we woke up yesterday, all the hay I had just purchased last Thursday was soaked all around the top and sides.Both the tarp over the cattle panels and the tarp to cover the hay were blown off. Snickers’ shelter is busted, most of the yard is still a soggy muddy mess, and we lost electricity for a few hours. It’s been a bit frustrating for me, but I understand this is just a part of owning livestock and learning how to put things together better the second or third time around. I’m grateful the flock did well through it since we don’t have a barn to bring them into, also the hay dried up pretty quickly after the sun came out and with it still being pretty windy. We’re supposed to get more rain on Saturday

) that homesteading will toss at you. If you've got nice weather for the next few days, you might be able to save some of the hay by busting the bales & spreading them out to dry faster.
