Happy Late Thanksgiving to every one of you!!!!
For the first time in 11months, I am a headache free! I am so thankful to have this under control... A lot of it was stress but also, I been taking, MSM, MCT OIL POWDER, Collagen, and eating a more balanced diet.

With that not holding me back I am so happy!!! 4 Nights ago I had no pain at ALL... I ran around the house with my siblings playing tag for the first time in 11months of no Pain!!! I was almost crying!!

What in the world is going on around here??? November and no snow. It is the 40s and cloudy.
Oh, and Stella wasn't bred. So now she is due for kids on April 5th, Maybell April 9th, and Dasiy March 23rd.

The bridge never did wash out but came close several more times over that week. Our friends ended up having to evacuate there home. Thankfully there home end up being fine. They did loose most there chickens and there got pretty destroyed.

This week we start work on the inside of the house!
We are finishing the half bath and then we start in the kitchen, dining room, and living room.

I've owned Molly for a year... So blessed to have her!!! Molly Wog Frog. She sleeps outside now and comes in for part of the day but she doesn't really like staying indoors as much anymore.

I have to get ready to go to Thanksgiving dinner with family so more later...

I wish I had held Bella this morning when she slipped thru the gate when letting milk goats in and out, I wish I would have watched her more, I wish I had taken more pictures, I wished I had kept her by my side and never let her in with the other does, I could go on but she is gone and there is nothing I can do but hope it was quick and not to painful.

Bella I loved you so much even tho I only knew you for 3months. I so longed to watch you grow up and become a milk goat. I held you for hours crying when grandpa died and many painful days after, I loved when you would look up at me with those eyes that read "I'm hungry", the many times you jumped on the counter tops and dining room table knocking my school books and dishes everywhere... I wish you could of made more memories! But I will cherish all the ones we did.

I went out to the barn when I didn't hear bellas cries to greet me I knew something was wrong... Zimmy saw you with your head down stretched out and hooves out... I hoped maybe you pulling a scare on me but as he went to touch you and not even a flinch I knew you were gone... You were still a bit warm but had been dead for at least an hour... I'm devastated!

Everyone I will post more on what I think happened but not right now... I'm just to sad. :hit
