Tuesday Frustration
I’ve been trying to get my latest Minute Movie up and going… doing the exact same steps I’ve done before… and somehow it just isn’t going to work. I even tried to upload it to Youtube instead… No go. After only a few hours of sleep due to this cough… I’m not in the mood…
Anyweigh
Dog gone it! I made you a Minute Movie today… then got interrupted and didn’t realize til JUST NOW, I forgot to upload it to Vimeo. Rats. Well, then… Let’s *talk* about calves. We’ve always weighed our heifer calves… they’re in the shed, they’re handy, and we’ve had a scale in there FOREVER. Time was…
Have Milk…
You know that house that everyone in the neighborhood used to like to go visit… just because there was always fresh cookies for everyone? Yeah. #044… she’s like that. **** March 9, 2011 Wordless Wednesday – “Soaking Up the Sunshine” March 9, 2010 Twisted March 9, 2009 Photographer/Artist/Friend (who, by the way, just…
Say “Hi!”
While I had plenty of things to work on in the house, today was gorgeous, so I abandoned ship and went and took you some baby pictures! We have over 30 babies so far… each one irresistible. Only two are baldies. Baldies get names. The guys call this one Dot. So… I’m calling this one……
Calf Cam Spying
I sit here, spying on my son… The Calf Cam is in great form. The baldy cow had a baldy calf… and I LOVE baldy calves! To me, there’s more chance for “character”… or at least a name! Every other calf that’s pure black is just… black. Hard to tell one from the other. (Well,…
Un-onslaught
I keep waiting for it to “HIT”. The rush of baby calves. The flow of amniotic fluid… the grunts of labor… the slimywetcuterthansnot black babies that (hopefully) slip into this world… the steam that rises from their backs… the first shake of a head and blow of a nose… the mother’s soft “meh” accompanied by…
Heifer Checkin’
For a change, I did the ten o’clock shift with the heifers tonight. Daniel is gone, and for the price of two kisses, I told him I’d could probably manage to cover for him. He gave me a peck on each cheek… so I ended up hours later… bundling up at 10 pm, heading out…
Fruit Blizzard
While the road report for the state of Wyoming looked like this today… and outside my door looked like this today… I somehow found it within myself to stay inside. I’ve put in my time being out in blech like this… I found things to do. I printed off more blog entries. I cleaned my…
Here’s Looking at You!
In between cleaning and cooking… I browsed my seed catalogs… and made my decisions. Though my garden is non-existent at this point in time… I will get my act together. Even if it means calling in Vernon and his tractors to rip up the spot for me! Back in the day, M. had a wonderful…
I Interrupt This Lesson… For Ranchlife
Ooops. Yeah, the sewing machine never made it out of my basement. Due to the breakdown of some equipment… I was called into action today. We grained the peewee calves… And fed some cows. And chopped some ice. Why, yes, I *DO* live on a ranch… thanks for the reminder! **** February 17, 2011 …
Minute Movie: Bull Sale
The trip back from Nebraska was long… The interstate was agreeable for driving if you were a lone car… unfortunately, that’s not the case on I-25, and the blowing snow whiteout condition would envelope you whenever another vehicle was nearby. It stunk. Bleh. I was extremely glad Vernon was driving (as he did heading down……
