Roll Farms - Herdstock is over, and I'm feeling hung over, lol

[Roll farms]

Yes, the truck's home....Jeff's in love w/ it. I keep catching him looking out the window, staring at it. Young love is so cute!

I feel so badly for the people lost in these storms, but am grateful they spared us.
We were hit by an F1 tornado 6 yrs ago and it was awful. Everyone says, "It was "only" an F1."
Yes, I'm glad it wasn't worse, but I sure as heck don't ever want to see another F1 either.

We pretty much took today off (aside from feeding / milking / etc.), we went to eat Mexican w/ our friend, then came home and the only constructive thing I did was heat treat a batch of colostrum.

Then we watched, "Beer for My Horses" It was ok, but I usually don't do 'dumb male comedy' type movies. I like 'muscular male blows stuff up' movies.

Now we're gonna go feed the babies, take a bath, and go to bed...I'm tired.

FTLOG, we had kids on Thursday, a buck and doe twin set of Nubians. I finally have my 'keeper' kid.

Roger....Watch out for those flying trampolines....
If Levi gets much wider..........Of course, she was pretty wide when she got bred so, it's probably a single or twins.
REALLY lookin' forward to Freckle's Freeney babies due March 31st.

To him liking his new truck. Even more for you taking the day off. That's good to hear. Hope you and your DH enjoy feeding the babes, taking a bath, and can get some good sleep. And that's for the "keeper" kid.

 

[ThreeBoysChicks]

So which one is the keeper?

 

[RPC]

She was a wide load when she was bred. I can not wait to see what she has. Watch her spit out a single boring traditional, after all this waiting and excitement. I would just look at her and snarl. I am also excited to see what Freckles and Freeney have I wish they were all due sooner lol. When is Austin due to kid? I am guessing you have a week or 2 off before any babies now. Wow I am full of questions today sorry.

 

[SmallFarmGirl]

Well, here she is.

She loves me today, I'm her onliest friend.

Cute! My heart melted!

3BC, the keeper is a blue Nubian, her pic's in my "March kidding thread".

Roger, Austin's due date is unknown....sometime in March.
Next "known" due date is March 16th (Levi)...but who knows...some could go before then.

I'm annoyed / waiting for a customer. I asked at 10 am if she'd try to be here by 5pm, b/c I was going to have a long day and wanted to be showered, supper done, and in my jammies by 6pm.

Still waiting.....

Today we disbudded kids for some folks, sold some rabbits, (and we have a new litter of Flemish) and got / put up a new load of straw.
I also washed / sterilized 25 milk jugs.
The folks who bought one of Risque's boys called today, upset....he died some time last night. They said he was fine when they fed him dinner, then dead this morning.
I'm thinking it's a fluke, if he wasn't acting 'off' then I can't see any reason for him to die unexpectedly. So that's a bummer.
Discovered some seriously mysterious stuff going on w/ one of the new Nubian's udders (see 'everything else goats') that I'm stressing over.

I wanna go take a bath.....

You just can't relax when you're waiting on someone to show up. And her 'I can come there when I want to" attitude is starting to grate on my nerves.

And, because I love showing her off....here's a new Valentine shot....

 

[fortheloveofgoats]

Oh my gosh what an amazing baby you have. Sorry to hear about the lady not showing up when she was a supposed to. I hope that she shows up soon, everything is ok with the nipple on the goat, and hopefully thing's get figured out with why the goat died. That sure is horrible. I just don't get why people try to take advantage of people, and especially such a nice sweet person like you. I hope for the best for you.

Well, she just left.

I handed her the milk and she asked if I'm ok. I said I've had a loooong, looong day and I'm just really ready to sit / relax.
(meanwhile my idiot dogs are lunging at windows and growling and acting retarded, so I screamed at them to SHUT UP).

She probably thinks I'm a doodiehead now but dang....7 days a week I'm 'on call' for people....by 6 pm on Sunday I should be able to be done unless it's an emergency.

Or...maybe I'm just a doodiehead.

I have had moments like that with the dogs being retarded. I thought I was alone on that one. No you are not a doodiehead. You are a normal human being, and you need to have some time to yourself. Have a great rest of the day. Hope you can relax.

From one doodiehead to another
