Enter: The Tin Mom

Heather says I have to post something about what is going on.  So that is what I am doing. She is quite the taskmaster.

This morning I started to dry Quisi off.  We have too much milk and I need to reduce the work before the girls and I go on Heather's campus visit and leave the boys in charge.  Quisi is one unhappy camper.  I feel so bad for her!  But, she quit eating on the stand.   She inhales her grain when she is asserting her authority over the other goats, but only stands and lets me milk her when she isn't fighting to be the queen. She became the logical one to dry off.

Over the weekend, the kids and I built 150 hive frames for the 15 hives of bees we should receive next week.  Heather is supposed to get the pics posted.  If she doesn't do it soon, I will nag her.  Rand is painting the hives tonight.  We are planning for lots of honey next year.  Yum.

Okay.  I have a book I want to read tonight, so I will post more later - besides, pictures paint a thousand words - so I will make Heather post some pics of all the fun we are having here with goat babies and bee hives and deciding on college.  Never a dull moment.

Maybe this will get easier with practice.  I hope.

God bless.
