Good Morning!--Chat thread

[Thewife]

It's pouring down rain!
Tried to tell the boy that it's a good day to be out pulling weeds!
He laughed at me?


Amy,
If the boy does not have to work the day you have the vet out, we can be there to give you hand, but we never know if he's working until his boss calls bright and early in the morning!
So, I can't say positively we can be there.

My swimming lessons ended today. I was in level 2 at the beginning of the swimming lessons this year, with no clue how to swim! Now I know how to do the front stroke, back stroke, finning and somewhat the breast stroke. I found out that I would move up to level 3 next year.

Congrats, KuteKitten! I remember swimming lessons...I still love to swim! It's a very good skill to have, and opens up a new way to have fun with your friends!

thewife, the appointment (with Dr. Sparling from Chehalis) is for "around 11" on Wednesday. Amy (allensacres) is going to try and help me if she can, too...and if not, I know Dr. Sparling is a very patient man (unlike the other vet we've had out), so he won't give me a hard time if I don't have the situation completely under control (and can you ever, really, with cattle?).

No, you can't ever really have everything under complete control with cattle. About the time you think you do, something goes awry.

A patient vet is a good one. He/she isn't apt to be rushing through things but, taking time enough to make sure the job is done right.

I just hauled almost a whole bale of alfalfa to the garden!
We pulled it out of the "new to us" baler, it's been in there for a couple of years, didn't think feeding it was a very good idea!
Should I use it as a mulch or throw it in my compost tub and let it rot?


Way to go Kute Kitten!
Your way ahead of me, about all I can do is dog paddle!

Amy, I will try to be there!
If the boy has to work, I won't have a rig, but the nephew might!
The boy would be better for strength if needed, the nephew is kinda as useless as I am!

 

[Farmer Kitty]

You can use it as mulch.

It's great that you guys can physically come together to help each other out!

Good morning everybody!

I have come to the conclusion, I am a bit weirder than I thought!
Today we are going to the dump and shoe shopping!
The shoe shopping thing is way over due! I know I really need to get something to support my foot and ankles better, but I hate shopping!
Now, I am excited about going to the dump!
Been filling bags all week, from the barn, Hubbys shop(shhh), and everywhere inbetween!
If we didn't have to go shoe shopping, I would say it's going to be a good day!


Thanks Kitty, I've never heard of anybody using alfalfa as mulch!
Probably because it's a spendy way to go?
