A Waiting Wednesday

16 Mar

After our cold start to Tuesday, the temperatures warmed up.

All that snow melted

By afternoon it was really windy and about sixty degrees.  And this was the only decent day over all of spring break to give birth.

I took the sweater off Melba.

And so I waited.

And by the end of the day, zero goats had gone into labor.

Purl (and she is not stuck)

But I did manage to trim a couple of sets of hooves.

Caroline got more probiotics.  She is not doing well at all.

I did some housecleaning.

I picked up all the cardboard Salem has shredded.

I did some more knitting.  And of course, I wrote this blog post.

I didn’t have pink in the right weight, so the next one is camouflage.

And the sun set.

And I waited and hoped that someone would go into labor before the rain and cold came on Thursday.

Friday’s Photo Dump

Well, here we are at another weekend.  I can’t believe how quickly time flies.  Next week is already our spring conference week, which makes the farm work a lot more challenging, but we’ll survive.  I’ll spend this weekend trying to get everything ready to make the work easier.
