    Java. the end.

    :frow I can't believe that Rory doesn't mind rain. There is NO way my goats would stay out in the rain for anything. They are such babies. :lol: I'm very thankful not to get the 6" of rain that Copley got. Our barns would have flooded for sure and I had to tear down our stall setup in one of...

    Savingdogs-Saving the chickens

    Why not milk them before you go? Then you can stay as long as you want and milk when you get home. So that means milking 3 times that day.

    Java. the end.

    sorry about your peppers. This has been one bad year for gardens. The rain has been missing us and we are thrilled to get some rain right now. All the bad stuff is missing us and we are getting a nice downpour. I hope it doesn't rain too much for you.

    Vinyl--peel and stick

    What about ceiling tiles instead of the peel and stick? Do one of the tin ones and that would probably look pretty nice. I would think it would be fairly easy to install. If you would choose wallpaper, I would make sure it is sanatise (sp?). That sticks on well and is extremely easy to clean.

    Rebecca's journal-may be time to restart this

    You can always buy more animals. Putting them up for sale now probably isn't a bad idea. Then you can take your time and if you choose to move, then you don't have to try and sell them at the last minute. Plus they do need care and right now you probably need as little on your plate as possible...

    Have you ever considered giving up on being SS?...Spoke too soon???

    There is certainly no harm in taking a break. This year DH has been working on a project at work that is causing him to work a lot. I also got a part time job and working on shutting down the alpaca business. So we had to scale back majorly and take a year that stuff was just not going to be...

    Rebecca's journal-may be time to restart this

    Sorry you are going through this. I don't think I would call his mom though. If things get worse down the road, it could cause you more problems. Is living at the other place something that would be good for you? Is the trailer a good one to live in?

    Why are you stocking some items?

    Bartering is why we stocked up on some of the things that we did. Many people won't want to go without toothpaste, soap, shampoo, snack items, etc.

    Java. the end.

    Last year I got some chicks from TSC that were from Mt Healthy. I finally figured out that they were Leghorn mutts. I didn't mind since no one knew what they were anyway and they are great layers but if you are looking for purebreeds, that really isn't right to pass off something as a purebreed.

    Free's kidding journal 2011: Plum's death wish p 42

    That is great that you were able to sell all the kids. Now on to other things. :D

    JUSTUSNAK...Summer coming to an end!?

    Nice looking girl. Until her boys are off of her, it will be hard to tell just how much milk she has. Kids keep them pretty empty.

    Gourmet Mint Double Chocolate Ice Cream

    How much mint extract do you end up with in a quart jar? Do you strain it out when done? How long do you let it sit? Could you use a pint jar or something instead? I have lots of chocolate mint that I'm really wanting to make mint extract from.

    Any other ideas for a major sunburn?

    I don't know if they even make it anymore but Noxema used to work great for sunburns.

    goat drying up suddenly! New Update!

    I have found that with one kid, you can easily milk twice a day with kid nursing full time and still get a good amount of milk. Hopefully production will go back up for you.

    Kids or No Kids? How did you know?

    We chose not to have children because we were older when we got married and didn't want to be retirement age when a child graduated from high school. Later on we did try the adoption route to adopt an older child. We really thought it was God's Will and had done a lot of praying and talking to...

    glenolam's madness - April passed away

    MTG works great on regrowing hair and taking care of skin issues. I keep a bottle of it around all the time and you can just get it at TSC.

    glenolam's madness - April passed away

    No, no other symptoms. The regular treatment is antibiotics like Polyflex or Exceed (by injection) and Hibiclens to put on the udder (can't remember the ingredient in Hibiclens that you are really after). But the Hibiclens stopped working for me and I got desperate and just tried the Camelid...

    glenolam's madness - April passed away

    It looks like a bunch of bad pimples. If left alone, they will eventually ooze pus out.
