Uh-Oh!!....I think the word has gotten out thru the BAaa....BAaaa.....vine on just how wonderfully Great ya are as a BB MOM!!.....
I guess ya are not counting sheep at nite to go to sleep....no...wait....well, ya are counting them Literally....all day Long.....poor young'un ya are.....sure Hope things work themselves out for ya....and I bet the assistance on the potter's wheel there sure comes in right Handy I'm sure....

Crud, I bet you're right! Now, WHO TOLD THESE SHEEP?! They're on different farms...

Mom only had 2 cups this morning, now I am just pissed. We added a little whole milk (unfortunately pasteurized) to stretch it for Princess, I think I have some goats milk in the freezer that I'll thaw to add for the next few days too. Hope she does not scour too bad. Maybe mom's production will start to increase. She is already getting 1.5lbs/day of whole grains and sweet feed, but I may need to up the protein. I think I can hear her out on the field right now hollering for more alfalfa...

Nope, I am counting SCREAMING LAMBS every night before I sleep and all day

Someone commented on Facebook that it looked like we had found a new way to spin wool

It's been raining and raining and raining here. The thaw has been up to 70 degrees and now back down to 30 tonight. No freeze for over a week, maybe two. I have got to get my seeds spread over the fields before we lose this frost-seed window.

I had to delay my clay run this week since they were sold out, so now I have to find something to replace my time today--maybe it's a tiny clay animals sort of day.

Pretty much a mud factory over here. Mud and mud and more mud. And also strange puddles and springs rising up in places I wish they wouldn't. Next time someone remind me to build the pig pens at the highest point on the property, not the lowest.

Instead of photos of pig soup, I took one of Princess next to my new pond that appeared overnight.

I would say your ground is beyond saturated.

And by mid summer, we'll be begging for rain.

Its so gross here as well. Every step I took on my route to feed the pigs, I sunk in over an inch of mud. Even the pigs shelter got flooded so they are in the barn right now.
