It's WORLD DAIRY EXPO time! No I won't being going... not that when I do go I ever have a good time. I'm much to stressed to enjoy things like this. But someday I hope that I'll be able to enjoy things without worrying about what is going on, on the home front.
At least I can watch the shows LIVE via their web casts. :) So there for it's cheaper than having to be there and I'm not stressed out! I can hardly wait for Saturday night to come. The champ will be crowned for another year. I so wish that I had a cow, or two, maybe three, four... oh heck a whole herd... several strings there... nothing like being greedy is there. OH to dream...
Also we've had our 4th!!!!! heifer in a row. I knew I was missing somebody last night, but I just couldn't find her. So I thought I had over looked her and she was find. Well Bernice... was hiding well and little Bets was found tonight. She has the same personality as her mother... CRAZY. She's alive and well... and today that's all that matters.
Other news... I've started painting the milk barn. All I'll say is... it's going to be BRIGHT! :)

Long Day...
It was just one of those days. A good day (sorta). It went something like this.
Woke up early... ugh... browsed a bit, got dressed, couldn't find my shoes. Go out... to the barn... all the goats are going NUTS!!! Sparky is nuts, calves are nuts, Kodie is thinking about being nuts. Me... well I have a fit of carnality in the truck getting a cow up who had been MIA for day. After that I do go just a tiny bit nuts, in chasing two horrible buckling who have come of age. That should be a chapter in a book... What they DON'T tell you about buck...
Had breakfast... UL came and we started working on freeing the logging chain from underneath of the bush hog. Don't ask... It finally came, all be it in two pieces! Praise the Lord.
Mom started bushing hogging, I tried to finish mowing, only to run out of gas. Finally did finish mowing the yard, and caught the two horrible bucks and took them to their new home. :) NO I didn't kill them... yes I thought about. NOOOOO not really. Well... if you only knew!
Evening chores... seemed to drag on and ON and ON. One cow calving (heifer BTW), one Crimson going slower than molasses in January and wanting to find her baby (who is in the barn safe and sound and has been for a few days now).
Finally in and ready for bed. Good night all...

Change...
Yes I've changed back grounds again. If I can changes things up I LOVE TO DO IT! At least it's something I can control. There's not much else these days that can be. :)
Finally to have
Our internet working again. It seems as though I have a limit on the amount that they say I'm downloading. In almost 2 years I've never had a problem with this (heck... I never knew there was such a limit). That is until a week ago.
Evidently someone, is hacking into my signal, causing my usage to go out of bounds and for me to basically be locked out of the internet for 24 hours. Oh they say your not... but when it takes 45 minutes for YAHOO to load... well you get my drift. This really ticks my corset strings. So now I'll have to start turning off the router at night (it's happening at around 12-2 AM and of course my FREE time doesn't start until 2-7 EST and I'm CST).
I declare if it isn't one thing it's another. Happy Monday y'all.

I look to the hills...
From whence cometh my help...
Tempest here is indeed praying in goat terms. Weaning is hard to deal with when your just an itter baby goat. Who is just a sweet heart... when she's sleeping and not bawling her little head off.
