I am beginning to understand why some mothers in the wild animal kingdom eat their young... Principal informed me this morning that B is about to be thrown off the bus for 3 days. For what? Eating on the bus this morning! Where did he get the food? Cause he didn't have anything on him when he got on. I was informed that this particular issue has been ongoing with both boys. 
I had to turn off his student id so that he cannot eat a second breakfast at school...and now I have to strip search him and threaten him to not get food from other kids on the bus!?!
This is getting really trying.

Lilly is still keeping me in suspense. But she's getting wider and wider and her ligs are loose. Udder is starting, but I don't expect to see much there until right before she kids.
Goldie might sneak one in there too. I didn't think she was pregnant but she's looking like she might be. There is a slim possibility that if she is then it could be Speedy's kid(s)...that would be joyous since we lost him not that long ago. If the timeline falls right and it's Speedy's we'll be keeping a buckling if there is one.

We weighed all the goats this morning. Dosed out Di-Methox to all under 2 years old. The only 2 who took without any hassle were Snickers and Little boy. Then when I got to the pen Goldie is in to dose Maggie, Goldie was trying to bit me and the dosing syringe as I was dosing Maggie. Goldie LOVES to take medicine and was disappointed that she didn't get any. 
Then we went to collect eggs. B put them all in the basket and then I put the whole basket into one of the top nest boxes as I usually do while we gave out feed / hay / water to everyone. Then we noticed one of the hens had a problem with her toe...it was swollen horribly. So DH went back to grab the hen and the egg basket and yelled for me that he needed help. Cinnamon had gotten into the nest box with the basket and removed all of the eggs and was sitting on them. So I took the eggs back, DH grabbed the Hen and we headed for the house.
After inspection of the toe we decided to remove the toenail that was half gone for whatever reason anyway. She is now all cleaned up and feeling better.
eta: I have a question for you all...Why do we genderize our colors? Why is it ok for a girl to wear blue but we have a problem with boys who wear pink? Isn't a color, just a color? And if it makes us happy to wear that color, why not?

I remember the 80's. Boys and men wore pink all the time. I remember my Dad had a pink sock tie and even had a couple of pink shirts that he wore with his suits. Believe me, my Dad is a man's man...

Tough guys wear pink. My female dog has a blue collar... And she is still a girl.elevan said:
Not sure why we genderize (is that even a word?) colors. Just kind of happened I guess?
In my opinion, people should wear whatever color clothing they want. Don't ever live your life for somebody else.

Where I used to work, we had an engineer who'd come in to work on his Harley, take his chaps and leather jacket off, and be wearing a pink sweater underneath.
He said 10 yrs in the Marines made him real secure in his manhood....clothes color didn't matter.
And his wife washed his fav. white sweater w/ red socks....

HIGH FIVE to y'all! Why did I pose the pink question?
Well...
My 7 year old boy, K's favorite color is pink. And I see nothing wrong with letting him express himself by wearing it....at home or at school if he likes. No frills or dresses and if the clothes were any other color they would be for boys or girls. But my boy is extremely happy wearing pink and playing construction with his bulldozers.
Color is color and has no gender unless we add one to it.
