Danny Boy is such a pretty goat, I love his colors. Yesterday sounds like a wild day, leaving a lead line on him today was a good idea. It has been raining off and on here today too. I had the sheep in the garden, doing fall clean up and put them up right before it started raining.

That is a nasty gash on your arm, but knowing you, Ms. Nurse, you will have it all better in no time.

That's a funny picture of your DH in the dog kennel, whilst the goats frolic. Caption this: Hey girls! I got him locked up! Wanna fool around?

Take care of that arm especially in the environment we work in. I was never much for shots but we make sure to get tetanus shots periodically.

Just a thought... you may want to keep a sharp eye out as you may need to go out and hold the girls in position so Dannyboy can figure out his part in the performance. No guarantee that either will figure out the proper place "on stage" when the show begins.

That’s a thought . . . I’m not sure how it is going to play out. He absolutely knows what to do! As soon as we put him in with the big girls, he tried to mount Angelica, and shot his wad. The important thing is to get him high enough. I suspect that when the girls are ready, they will back up to him, wherever he is.

That was my biggest concern as I walked toward the house,after it happened. I did a quick run down of all my options. I finally decided on the betadine, because before and during surgery, we always scrubbed and saturated the area with betadine, because that kills all sorts of fungi, viruses and bateria. After I painted the deep scratch with betadine and let it dry and put the steri-strip on the cut, I used a q-tip to spread my own, high powered healing, antibiotic ointment on the cut and then along the deep scratch, and covered with a non-stick pad. Finally I wrapped the whole arm with rolled gauze. Hopefully, that should keep the infection away.

I’ll say another prayer for your arm! That’s drastic!

Somehow "Owie" just doesn't describe that injury! Sure hope it heals up clean and quick.

This morning I did a dressing change, and there is no infection. However, scrubbing with Betadine, putting another butterfly closure and putting more antibiotic ointment stimulated the area, and now it really aches.

No infection is what we wanted to hear.
