This is Dallas pulling a goat from Lisa Marie. She ended up with 2 Martin and Luther. lol

they were born on MLK day

Chee-burger Chee-burger Chee-burger

Well here I am again. I seem to let the days get away from me. I have been able to get back to selling on Ebay. Trying to hook up with the Avon lady so I can sell that as well.
Been a busy wild week.
Monday Dallas, Chloe and I all woke up with the flu. I did not get out of bed until Tuesday. So you can guess what the house looked and smelled like. Dallas and Chloe are still sick with fever and a new sinus infection . Bailee's bday was Tuesday. She had a good day.
Elosie the cow had a baby. I wanted to name him Supper. But Wayne started calling him cheeseburger. ( BEcause we will eat him)
So the name chee burger has been born. You know you have to say it like John Belushi did on SNL. I feed the cows today hollaring their names and it was so funny. Here chee burger chee burger chee burger. lol
We have had the last of the goat kids as well.... One of the neighborhood men had stopped Wayne and asked if I could come and look at one of his goats. ( this was last Sat)
Who in their right mind would ask me to come look at a goat? Anyway, I got there and saw a very young very overdue nannie goat. I had to stick my hand you know where and find a baby.
I have never done this on my own and usually only have to hold the goats head still.
To make a long story short. She had broke her water 2 days prior to me coming over and the first baby was already in the canal but couldnt get out cause he was butt first. Not even feet first.
So i had to push him back into her so i could find his legs ( this was no easy process due to the fact that the second baby was already in the canal as well. and no less back feet first)
I finally ( after an hour) got the first 2 out, they were dead. So sad. I asked the man if i could check her for one more. He was like... nah there is no more in there... But guess what ... there was.
I went back in. way in... felt around and found a head and pulled that one out.. It was alive woo hoo. woo hoo. We went back and checked on them the next day and they were doing better.
What a feeling...... everyone should get to do that

Now for today.... Chip is sick again.... Have I told you he eats everything. I had to take him to dr this morning... They admitted him , he is still there on i.v and meds. He has some kind of infection that has thrown his white blood cell count way up. Wayne was like put him down.. but that was easier said then done. The vet took pity on me and is not charing me for the stay. Bless his heart. Chip will be 1 on Feb 2 if he makes it.
Guess how you get this infection? By eating something you shouldnt.... suprise..... Somthing dead, or afterbirth most likely. How knows. But for now he is still there.
And he refuses to go poddy anywhere but home. Just like a man... So he will be full of it when we pick him up tomorrow.

So see. i told you it has been a wild week. and it aint over yet
talk to you soon

Its been so long

Hey all

Seems to have been awhile since I was able to post last. The computer is horrible... This dial up and driving me crazy and it looks like I wont ever be able to anything else about it.
Lets see .... what has been happening...
Well Dallas had friends over ... but only after Wayne brought up a rooom full of boxes for me to unpack and put away. Did I tell you I have to wash EVERYTHING that comes in here. I know the electric company is loving me.
I managed to get the house clean in time. Now Chloe is having friends over and the bank guy is coming over in the morning. So I get to mop again . woo hoo...
O and the goats are kidding. Have been for a week. They are sooooo cute . I will have to get some pics posted ....

Let me tell you what happened the other night... I was in the bedroom around 11 or so at night. Wayne wasnt at home yet, the kids were in bed. I was getting ready for a bath ( woo hoo a bath)
and i hear scratching on the window.... I stand there in my room ... listening.... there it is again... scratch scratch scratch. I slowly walk in to the family room. There is no light switch here so i am walking in the dark around all the boxes of stuff that had been in the shed for 2 years...
You see in my mind I see a big ole fat rat trying to escape the house... I at this point scared silly that the rat will turn around and eat me. Alive, screaming, and bleeding all over my freshly painted walls. I reach out to turn on the light... but wait I am fearing a rat is there waiting for me.. On goes the light...

The cat George was hanging from the window sill by one finger nail. stuck... swinging...
i could have pinched his head off...

anyhoo.... i think thats it.....
i hope to be back tomorrow

see you then

I'm a Moomy

Hello again
It seems like it has been a while since I was here
It has been very busy around here. We have been moving the furniture in and now I have started to unpack. Man we have a lot of junk. And do I mean junk. I have a few stacks. I have trash ( have already been to dump twice) a freecycle stack, a yard sale stack and then there is what we keep. Hasn't been really hard to part with stuff. You know it has been 2 years since we have laid eyes on this stuff and I think we have forgotten about most of it.

Now to the news of me being a Moomy.... hubby went out today and picked up 3 cows. What you say, Cows? Yes, 3 cows. 2 large ones 1 baby and the large one are preganant. All 3 are girls, I think one is 8 years old, ones is 5 years old and the little one is 2 months.
Have you every stood next to a cow? They smell and they are quite large. They are sure aint goats. Chip just wants to run them . They dont much care for him.

I did email my Avon lady. So I awaiting her response. If it is meant for me to sell again She will get back with me.

Mom came up today and made me work. :) Well I didnt really want to do the school room but I did. It is done for the most part. I will have take a pic and post it. The girls will start in the new School Room on Monday. I will also start back on Ebay Monday evening. Just like a Job I have to do it every night.

Oh Wayne found a guy at work who is selling his pool table, so we are going to look at it tomorrow after church. The house is slowly coming around. Now if I could just find some stools for the kitchen.

all righty . i have bored you enough for today. I will try to get the pic of the school room up asap

talk to you later
