We are supposed to get rain Thursday. We need it badly, it has been so dry. Naturally I'll be coming back from Corpus Christi dragging a trailer with a horse in it, a 6 hour trip, maybe 7 hours if the weather is bad. I avoid Houston like the plague and take back roads and hit Highway 59 on the...
Friends went home Sunday. They left Ozel here and will be back the first week of December. The hope is that she will come back into heat and consummate her love with Buford. Ridgetop and I came to the conclusion that moving her right before the peak of her cycle threw her out of heat and...
My friend and I tried for days to put the two dogs together for making puppies. They showed a little interest and we got excited!
Our excitement quickly faded away as they got utterly bored with each other and laid down, far apart.
Our claim is the dogs DROVE US TO DRINKING!!
I got the meat processed, vacuum sealed and in the freezer. Wednesday friends brought their female Anatolian that was in heat, to be bred to my male. Leaving her farm and going to a strange place upset her and she just kinda stopped things. She was SUPPOSED to go into ready to breed heat, but...
My neighbor Kyle came over yesterday to help me process 3 lambs. I have never processed lambs, not in 10 years of owning sheep. I always took them to be processed. I just couldn't do it. Kyle put a 22 in the back of their head, one at a time. We put the lamb in the tractor bucket, because we...
I went in the room yesterday afternoon to clean the ceiling fan, that the modem in in. It was all lit up! I ran to my laptop and the internet was on! I'm guessing that the technician was able to fix it at the box out at the road.
I have to say that I have enjoyed the past 2 days of not having...
SIL canceled PT this morning, she didn’t feel good. Ok, I’m back on trying to get something out of my internet provider. The company I was with must have sold out, I get someone with a thick accent that I only half understand. I spent an hour on the phone yesterday and still didn’t get an...
My sister in law had 5 doctor appointments last week. It's a 100 mile round trip from my house to hers, to Lufkin, then back again. I was exhausted. Then on Wednesday, I went to the feed store and got 1,104 pounds of feed in a super bag. I scooped it out into 5 gallon buckets and dumped in six...
39F degrees here this morning. Might not mean much to a lot of y'all, but to me, that is cold!🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶 The sun is out and it will warm up but for me, winter is here!
Today is opening day of deer season. I heard one shot. There are only a couple of people on my road that hunt, plus there are several deer leases nearby. Close enough to hear the gunfire.
I slept late, lazing around slowly sipping coffee. I'm tired, got one load of clothes washed, another in...
Lug nuts still not on the mule. Chris is coming over this morning to put them on, I'll be gone. Taking SIL to doctor for a stress test. She has another appointment for another test in December, trying to get these done before the end of the year while her deductible has been met. She has another...
Coffee is ready. I've got to gulp down my second cup and get outside to do chores, then to pick up SIL for stress test. That will take awhile. I'll have to find something to do besides sit in a waiting room full of people staring at their phones. BORING plus I don't do well just sitting still...
