Maybe. Hard selling in winter here though. And she isn't too little, lol. She's pushing the height limit and she is friendly-ish but not really pet friendly. She is so good on the milk stand though, she would stand there all day and is not at all offended by newbies learning on her (my 11 year old niece proved this! Lol she was not a gentle learner either).

Replacement part is here! I will be warm tonight!

Woohoo for heat! (while I'm running AC...) Somebody somewhere at some time will want your goat... just gotta find the right person at the right time.

I could sell her tomorrow for meat, meat prices are high... But I don't want to sell her for meat!

Gotta finish the goat pen tomorrow. Also going to the hospital to get my GD test over with while my mom's free to watch DD. DH is going to help a friend work on his truck that's been sitting in our driveway for months waiting for parts, so hopefully that will go away this weekend.

Oh no... I wouldn't want to sell her for meat either.

Also going to the hospital to get my GD test over with

Ugh....but it will be good to get it over with!

 

[NH Homesteader]

Test wasn't so bad, hope I passed! If not I have to take the 3 hour test, which would be way worse!

It's cold here, high of 45 today. Have to go finish the goat pen, we're getting them at 10 am. But first DH is carving a My Little Pony pumpkin for DD. We weren't in time for Halloween but she doesn't care!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Glad you got that test done - and really hope you don't have to do the other test... ugh.

I'd take 45 degrees today! It's hot here...will probably set a record and hit 90 or so. What a day to be fencing ugh!

Pumpkin sounds cute! Can't wait for pics of the pumpkin AND the goats (when you get 'em home and settled).

Thought I posted this last night but it's still sitting here ...

Ew not a good fencing day at all! We got the temporary pen set up, minus a tarp over the hoop coop that we'll throw on tomorrow. They shouldn't be there too long so it's a kind of small pen but such is life.

I am so tired, DD and I did like no school work last week and I need some normal. Monday I intend to do cleaning, homeschooling, and organizing things because I feel all out of sorts after running around all week and battling issue after issue.

Aaaand gotta feed the critters and load up to get the girls! Pics later today if my phone cooperates!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

I have left posts stranded myself, lol. Hope today is better for ya! Gotta be exciting to get the new girls today! Phone WILL cooperate...phone WILL cooperate...phone WILL.. LOL.

Ya'll have a safe trip!

 

[NH Homesteader]

Or not... Lost our brakes, back home. Don't think it's a quick fix either. I am NOT having a good week!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Oh crap! That sucks in such a big way.... It's bad enough when something like that happens....it's even worse when you hade a major event to handle. GRRRRRRRRRR!
