No rest for the wicked goat farmers...lol.
Today's schedule, providing the rain doesn't bugger us up:
Feed, milk, etc.
10:00 - disbud 3 kids for a customer.
10:30 - go get 110 bales of hay (hopefully - if it's raining we will still go load the trailer under the seller's covered barn, then come back for it when the rain's stopped.)
Noonish - If we can get it all this morning, then we're taking our 'help' to eat at my fav. Mexican joint.
2:00 - go disbud 8 kids for one of our helpers
5:00 - the Toggs are leaving (happy dance)
5:30 - last baby Flemish is leaving
Also somewhere in there I'm supposed to try and pick up 6 boxes of girl scout cookies....and a guy's coming to get a bottle of B vitiamin...
I'm really glad we were able to get everything done, that the weather cooperated for the most part, because DH should be going back to work in March and we'd have only been able to work on it on the weekends, and it would have turned into an all-summer-long project.
Tomorrow we have people coming over to watch the super bowl. I'm working Monday and Tuesday....
If it's nice Weds., I'm probably going to start on my greenhouse.

Reading your journal always makes me feel like a slacker. 
Great job on the new buildings. Hope the weather cooperates with you. Have a good weekend and relax a while.

It's snowing.... :/
The 10:00 disbudding got postponed b/c of the roads, and I'm going to *try* to contact the hay guy and one of our helpers and try to go for the hay at 10am, looks like we have a smallllll windown where it's going to be 'dry' on the radar.
I hate fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants stuff, I'm a 'plan it to the last detail' type of person....ugh.

I read your other post and was thinking man the weather sure is different down by you if you have rain because we have like 3 inches of snow already. I didn't even know it was supposed to snow. It feels pretty warm out so I don't think this snow will last. well good luck with everything. I am going to miss my crotch loving little Missy togg goat. Just kidding I am sure you are super excited to see them go. I hope you have more babies soon. Now that I am done I need someone else to have babies. I just can't wait till march to see what Levi and Freckles have. I bet Freckles is starting to look really good. I bet she would do good at a show here soon. That's going by the picture you showed me before Josh got her. Well have a great day.

Both your weather reports sound weird to me. Here in northeast, PA is is bright, sunny and has been near 50 for 4 days in a row and supposed to be that way for another 2 or 3 days. Of course that means we have mud, mud and more mud.

Just wait because you always get what we have just a day late. I didn't think we were supposed to get any snow either. I don't think it will last to long though. Hopefully tomorrow will be warm again LOL.

We got snow overnight and it is still snowing. Luckily light stuff. Probably will end up with 2" at most. But it is wet and heavy so I'm glad minimal shoveling will need to be done.RPC said:
Now they are saying that the Colorado snow is heading our way. It will be interesting to see what we end up with from that one. I'm praying not much snow. I don't mind the cold but don't like heavy wet snow.
