Good Morning!--Chat thread

Bronco Hollow,

As a migraine suffer I know how they can be. I hope once they get your BP under control your headaches go away!

Have a good time on the pontoon!

Good morning again!

I might have gone back to bed after Hubby left on some Elk scouting thing!

We've been having thunder storms rumbling the house all morning, I would not mind it, if I could at least see some pretty lightning!

Hubby put my "new to me" brush hog on the tractor last night, I think I am gonna chance the dounpours and go give it a try!

Don't get to wet! I raked the last of the first cut hay this morning and DH is out round baling it. We have a slight chance of rain this evening.

 

[Farmer Kitty]

It's raining. We desperately need the rain as we are in a moderate drought but, it could have held off until DH finished baling!

Sorry Kitty!

Of course it rained while I was doing my chores! Not enough to water anything, just enough large droplets to soak the top of my head? It's so warm out, I was dry before I was done!

Followed one of my broodies to her nest, she's setting on air!
Had a duck come out with a few new babies!
Yeaterday we spotted a mama wild turkey with babies!

Just sent the boy out to open and close gates!
Gonna go see how my brush hog works!
(and hopefully not break it)

 

[Thewife]

Guess what!
Yep, I broke it! (just the shear bolt I hope)
Hubby will be so pleased!
At least I made it all the way across the field this time!
I barely made it halfway across last year, before I broke Mr X's brush hog!

 

[Farmer Kitty]

That didn't take you long. Shear bolts are minor so here's hoping it's just a shear bolt!

Had an interesting milking. One of the heifers (Sour Tart)is in heat. So DH and Kute Kitten go out and bring her in. She ended up between two cows where I was milking and interrupting milking. Darn heifers seem to do that to me on a regular basis. So, they get a halter on her and walk her into a stantion. But, I let cows go out as I milk them. Two (Nikki and Sparkels) of them were in heat. They were turned out at the same time and wanted to ride each other down the walk. I get them out and they are going in circles out there when Sour Tart decides she's going to complain. So, back in come Nikki and Sparkles with Sparkles riding Nikki. I grabbed the whip and cracked it in the air just as Nikki is going to ride Sour Tart and Sparkles was going to jump Nikki. Just what I don't need. Poor heifer locked up and two cows riding on the cement! At least the cows went back outside when I air cracked the whip. I think I need hazard pay for tonight's milking!

Good morning everybody!

Hubby put the other brush hog on the tractor, so I'm gonna try not to break that one today!
All "I" broke was the shear bolt on the other one! Seems something ain't right with some do hicky, so he needs to do something to the whatchamacallit!


Kitty, sounds like yesterdays milking was fun!(NOT) I know cows in heat can be dangerous with or without a bull!
I had a couple of cows ridiing each other a little too close to my brand new, barely had it a month truck! They dented the hood, cracked the grill and dented the bumper!

 

[Farmer Kitty]

Good luck with the brush hog today!

How very not nice of those cows to hurt your new truck!

Kute Kitten is having a bad morning-migraine again.

hey thewife! good luck today

basically i can break any tool or mechanical device known to man. pretty much my hubby follows me around fixing everything i break. i'm not kidding. one day he was trailing me when i was mowing. and yes something - i think it was the do-hickey - fell off. he is a very patient man.....

golly where is everyone hiding the hay right now? called two of my hay guys this morning and neither will have any until late next week. guess i'd better get out there and cut some of that clover by hand for those silly goats. of course they wont get out there and browse themselves, but if i go and cut it and put it in the feeder they will eat it. sheesh!

happy monday everyone!
