Today I hate rams
After this fun and games I trimmed all the goats hooves, gave them all Corid (it arrived yesterday), and wormed them all too. A couple of the older ones are a little thin, but otherwise everyone looks good. I finished with this at 2:00 and needed to eat- I hadn’t had anything but a cup of coffee. After a quick lunch the no-freeze faucet had unfrozen so I could get water for the critters. Freezing temperatures here mean a lot more work with getting water to the critters and gates frozen in the mud, but it also is easier walking since the mud and puddles are frozen.
After this I shoveled last years compost into the wheel barrow and carted it to the garden beds. This was repeated 11 times. I intend to increase my garden this year as we ran out of veggies already from last year’s garden. Finally the sun set, and I was wore out. I took a Lush Blue Skies bubble bath and feel much better.
And I’ve had problems with my FF faucet at the barn this year too. Now I can’t get the handle up, even on warmer days…and have bee hauling wter from the house. My DH isn’t offerring help neither as he doesn’t want to brave the wind chills. I try to keep in mind that part of my family is spending time at the beach right now in NZ…you ready for a trip Down Under?
