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
