A girl (longing for the country), and her beloved goats
Just some ramblings from my life. I am a hair dresser, aspiring dog groomer, goat raiser and a country girl at heart.

So not expected
Well I arrived to work safely thankfully but the roads were not treated because this precipitation was suppose to be rain!

Feeling like a kid again!
So Im leaving work and mom calls asking when I will be home. Why I ask? "Your father wants to go see the fireworks in Camden, want to come?" I hold back my shrill of delight and say I will be right home. HEHE I love fireworks!
So we hit lots of traffic and the first couple min we watched them from the road in our vehicle.
Philadelphia, PA skyline from Camden NJ
I think this is the Ben Franklin Bridge

feeling of accomplishment
Oh how I love an organized room
My mom gave me the nightstand (use to be in the livingroom and previous to that it was my dad's childhood nightstand)
So I was able to move the roundish thing to the otherside of the room and be useful to get things off my dresser.
My dresser is now clear of goat meds and the like so I can easily access jewery and maybe just maybe wear some.....

Oh Gloomy Days
I know we all get these moments/days/years that make us feel as if life is happening without our permission and say. Because well it is.
Two animals are leaving my ownership here shortly that I had no plans of ever releasing and its kind of bitter sweet. I know its for the best and I am grateful for the new homes they will be getting but its still hard to part with an animal you have put a lot of time and heart into.
In the year 2010 I have had to part with more then I feel is my share to part with. Its been a stretching experience and not one I want to repeat for any reason at all. Im more callus to the world and what it throws my way. I guess thats that cynical me talking but its hard to "talk over top of" when it shouts so loudly in my head.
Had my first case of real bloat here today - scary stuff. Grateful to my friend Ashley and my vet Dr. Bergmann who gave me sound advise to help pull her through. Hopefully in time she will be back to her old self.
Angie is still battling some chronic issue and it has me baffled. If I just only knew what causes her bouts of sickness I would feel so much better about attacking it and making her better. The vet has been out and I feel its like I am doing everything possible yet its not enough.
Thankfully the other 3 seem perfectly healthy with no issues at all. They notice that SP and Angie havent been themselves so that puts them a bit out of whack but otherwise the 3 are doing well.
I have 1 sold doe due in March 2 due in April and 1 due in May. A bit spread out I know but I guess God knows best.
I am going to try to get into the Christmas Spirit as it is that time of year.....maybe a swift nudge in the rear will do the trick, well with goats we know thats a possibility ;)

cleaning pens
Ok got the camera working
Couple weeks ago we cut down some dying trees. The pines with needles still green were given to the goats
Today Caleb and I removed the piles of cleaned off branches.
Angie helped by eating the branches that were uncovered on the bottom of the pile :)
Dude just wants to be noticed -- and yes I do, cant help but notice the smell :P
My little baby growing up :) <3
