The goats and Bessie ate both of the round bales in the past two months. Ted moved them back up the hill yesterday. If I'm feeding them square bales until the next set of round bales gets delivered, it's a lot easier to do so up here. Today's weather was absolutely gorgeous outside. It felt … Continue reading Back up the hill…

A little hokey
My husband says stringing a clothesline across the front porch is more than a little hokey. I told him if he'd sink my clothesline posts, I wouldn't have to do this.

Somebody missed me!
I was out of my office last week all week for testing, and I was gone all day yesterday for a staff meeting. Puppers will not leave my side today. It's all I can do to keep her off my lap so I can get a little work done with my online students! Lol

Remember to run a fan in the open window for an hour so any fumes from the first lighting don't make you sick.

Fixing fences …
...again. We have one goat who gets out a LOT. Luckily, it's the friendly one who thinks all people have snacks just for her so she's easy to put back in. Ted put her in and watched her jump right back over the fence again in a low spot. He's fixing it now. Puppers and … Continue reading Fixing fences …

Getting these pics
Getting pictures of the animals to add to this blog is not the easiest thing in the world to do. Sometimes these animals simply will not cooperate. Sometimes they make silly faces which I know only look silly to me so I don't usually share those. Sometimes they run away move right as I'm snapping … Continue reading Getting these pics
