I totally forgot I had hay to put up. I mean those rounds were just laying there in the field, out of sight, not saying a word. I remembered today though and blew the cobwebs (literally) off the tractor 🙄. After checking oils, it started right up 👍 and I was able to get the hay put up. It's not like anyone would steal my hay, but it's nice to have them up by the barn where they should be.

Jesus is Lord and Christ 🙏❤️🇺🇸

Heavy rain last night, so wet morning. No farm work. Met a friend for lunch and had a nice visit. Got home, checked animals, water, etc, found one who was due to kid, in barn. She'd had her own fireworks and presented me with 3 doelings! 👍☺️One of my full blood Boers. Another is due, keeping a watch on her. Watched parts of a TV special, Macy's I think -- it was a musical with a lot of the Motown music. Loved that. Went out and checked on the mom& new kids ... Full bellies. I had put a small night light out there earlier, help her see all of them🤫 they're in a stall for a couple days to bond and be sure all 3 get to nurse. So far, so good. Chores are done until morning...time for bed.

Hope everyone had a good 4th of July!

Having coffee. Pot is hot and fresh, help yourself.
Beyond usual chores, haven't thought what today will bring. Oh, there's plenty to consider, I'm sure.🙃

Coffee, awaken fully, prioritize needs. 👍

Not on the roof today. Waiting on radiant heat barrier to come in today. Going to town in a bit to buy 2x4s for lath to screw metal roofing to. Will pick up metal on Friday. Having a roof party on Saturday! Y’all come!
You know I would, if you weren't so far away.

@baymule WAY too hot for a roof today. Only 91 and a feel like 97 here -- wanted to sit in the water tubs I had to dump the warm water and refill with cold! Sweating like I was writing a bad check! 😅

Everyone good, has water, shade, grass....new kids have full tummies, mom hay, grain, water! I'm INSIDE...AC blowing 👍. Making some cheese in a short while. Took hay lady 3 dz fresh eggs. Good!!!! More gone.... 😁 I don't really care about anything on my lists right now :old:lol: it can wait.
