So sorry about your friend, Bibi, my sympathies.
Relieved to say that so far there are no newborn calves in our herd as the snow flies relentlessly and blocking the view to our back field. Yesterday I set up emergency facilities for such an untimely event. Surprised I am not nursing a headache after dragging gates to set up a makeshift stall in the horses' lean to. The cows have waited this long, surely two more days they can hold out. LOL.
It is a full blown blizzard out there and I will be routinely going out to check on them to be sure not to miss a newborn.
Last night I went to dinner with a girlfriend and then went over to another friend's house together to see her newborn puppies!!! So SWEET! Of course they're border collie puppies, six of them. Momma "Ivy" and her six pups are doing well. I brought Breeze along because her male dog, "Flash" also a bc, and Breeze never got to have their play date and meet when they were puppies themselves. Breeze is now fixed so I wasn't too worried about them meeting. OMGosh it was funny - she and Flash ran circles and half circles running and chasing one another like their little butts were on fire. Hilarious!!!
Today I will be cleaning and perhaps a little scrapping in between housework and herdwork.
Have a great day Cherries! Stay dry and warm today!
