Pendergrass Ranch - Big changes!

He is so funny! I bet he was claiming them for himself! He is such a pig, every time I'm in the kitchen, he is under my feet, swatting at me, biting my legs. He wants to eat!

Drew is picking up 5 rabbits that someone is giving to me to process. I've never done rabbits! Kind of scared

Processed our first rabbits. Went pretty well I think. One did squeak but I think it might have been a reflex. They were big california/NZ bucks and a doe. I saved the skins to try to make some mad bomber hats

Worst week I have had in a long time.

Drew broke the truck so I have had to use the scooter to get to work. Riding that thing in 30 degrees at 55 mph is not fun. Today is started raining and that is not safe. The starter on the scooter doesn't work so I have to kick start it literally 20 minutes before it starts up. Then if it dies, I'm in for another 10 or 20. Really not having a good week. On top of it, the goats were out when I got home, thankfully they were just eating grass in the neighbors orchard and ran right back through the fence to me.

I literally feel like crying, I am so exhausted and mentally spent.

It will get better

I called my mom to talk to her and that is exactly what she said. I'm just waiting for Drew to get home so he can help me fix the gate that has now blown open. This wind is incredible. I am so glad I got home before it started up.

OH I love weekends. We are SO BUSY ALL THE TIME!.

So the truck broke, ordered the part, fixed it wednesday. Then Wednesday the car started leaking so Drew had to take it apart. Today we ran to another town to pick up two suffolk ewes that a guy had a shoot because one had a hard lambing and the other couldn't lamb for some reason. He was a really sweet older guy with a couple acres and a ton of different animals. His sheep were GORGEOUS!. He had one little black ram lamb that survived from one of the ewes and he brought him out to show me. I am HOOKED. He was the cutest little guy i've ever seen LOL. I really want sheep now. I told the guy that if he wanted to sell him...to let me know

Then we drove to Drews shop so he could weld the leaking pipe up.

Tomorrow I will be putting together my garden boxes and start ordering seeds
