Yeah, hubby doesn't realize what a chore it will be to take care of a herd of meat goats and yes, we have some people that are requesting it now but what is gonna happen when we have to front the money to start a herd and how much can we get for a meat goat that has been slaughtered? We can get...
Wednesday....so today I am feeding the rabbits and notice a ruckus in the pen where I have the 3 in together....the black buck is trying to breed the red doe. :barnie So, I am gonna keep watching them and mark my calendar and palpate her later on. I don't mind having more litters but I just...
I heard a gentleman say he used fishing line to keep the deer out. They bump into it at night and can't figure out what it is so they avoid it. He runs it every 8 inches about 4 ft tall around the garden and they won't jump it cause they can't see it.
Well....after a lukewarm response to the buck rag yesterday Aliana is back to her normal self this morning. I checked her all day yesterday and she was interested in the rag, lots of tail flagging but she was very quiet and had no discharge or swollen vulva...she seemed a little restless but...
Really....maybe it was $9 a pint....store bought honey that is listed as "raw honey" is $9 for what looks like a quart jar but I'm sure I'm probably wrong about the price....I hope so at least! :P
Well, today is the day to check Aliana....it will be one week today from when she was bred. She...
That dog is too cute! I can't wait for our first snow causeour bassett Frawg has never seen snow...she's so goofy I can just imagine what she'll do with it. :lol:
My least favorite is dusting, hands down. I would rather scrub toilets than dust. I get sick every time I dust the house so I just let it get bad enough until hubby does it. :D
Next on the list is mopping....it hurts my shoulders and back. I just got a steam mop and the kids are fighting over...
I agree with the sneaking and lying issue. We are big on telling the truth. Kids nowadays get away with too much and Aly is doing them a favor by punishing them and making them see that their actions have consequences. They won't appreciate it now but they'll be better for it later.
My kids...
Okay....so yesterday we had meltdown over addition. Killing me. After a week of no structured activities due to the holiday, guests, and my back injury, reality hit hard today. My son LOST IT. He ended up apologizing in tears and I agreed to let him pick what pages of math problems he wanted to...
Well, the neighbor brought over her old rabbit cage and I was excited cause it had a water bottle in it....yeah, broken...dang. The holland lop, which is a boy incidentally, is much happier in her cage than he was in my critter catcher. He seems pretty nice, definitely someone's pet at one time...
Nice! I refuse to buy the kids a DS. We had a wii and sold it. I refused to pay $50 per game for the thing.
Congrats on the appliances! We have a side by side fridge that came with the house and I hate it! The next one we get is going to be a top/bottom one. I want a new washer/dryer combo but...
Hi guys....so today we got 18 meat rabbits. :th
I also sold my kids' smart cycle for $60 so now I have feed for said rabbits.
We have someone that wants 5 of the rabbits butchered in 2 weeks so at least 5 of the babies are spoken for. We are currently trying to sex them all and figure out...
It seems like every time a holiday rolls around family is pulled in different directions so we are really trying to focus on just us and our kids and if anyone wants to see us then they can come here.
That being said, we have a lot to be thankful for this year and I am grateful every day for...
Went to the doctor....all is well, wants to put me in physical therapy to be on the safe side so I'm calling him next week to set that up.
Aliana went into heat Wednesday, confirming my suspicions of a miscarriage a couple weeks back. Took her to the breeder and had her bred again and now...
thanks guys...I'm feeling better but the prednisone is making me jittery and last night I didn't get much sleep. I go to the dr in a few minutes so hopefully it won't be too bad!
I hope they don't end up on that MTV show Ridiculousness! If you have never watched that show you should! It is like America's funniest home videos for adults.....hilarious!!!
