AUG 31??? WELL THERE GOES THE "THIS SUMMER I AM GOIONG TO ........" PROJECTS.
VERY CLOSELY RELATED IN THEORY TO " 77? WHAT HAPENED TO -- BEFORE I'M 40 I WILL......"
THERE ARE THINGS I AM STILL LEARNING.... LIKE IF YOU DON'T GET ENOUGH SLEEP, THE FIRST THING TO GO IS YOUR CREATIVITY, THE SECOND IS PHYSICAL ENERGY... WHILE I WAS UP WAITING FOR THE DONKEYS, I THOUGHT I COULD AT LEAST GET SOME WRITING DONE..
WRONG... COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHICH END OF THE PEN TO PUT TO PAPER.
NOT ONLY HVE I A GREAT DEAL OF WRITING TO DO-- ......THE PIG IS A SHAMBLES--- THAT PIG IS NICE ADDITION -- IT IS APPAULING TO HAVE A PEALING PINK PIG-- IT IS THE CASE OF I AM MINUS ONE PIECE OF KNOWLEDGE THAT KEEPS ME FORM PROCEEDING WITH PUTTING THE PINK BACK ON THE PIG.. SHE HAS A FAULTY EAR THAT NEEDS SOME KIND OF REPAIR- AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MEND A PIG'S FIBERGLASS EAR SO WE CAN PAINT IT AND HAVE IT BE A MORE SIGNIFICANT PART OF OUR "DONATIONS" AS A PIGGY BANK..
BASIC PROBLEM -- "THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO DO I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START...... IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT STARTING..." THAT MAY BE TRUE ... HOW ABOUT OVERWHELMED?????
I CAN TRY AND PRIORITIZE TODAY... I THINK ALL THE USUAL IS RUNNING WELL EXCEPT WE ARE OUT OF AMOXACILLIN-- WHINC I HVE ORDERED FROM GEROGE,. SO MY NEXT IS... THE DONKEYS. THEY ARE NOT IN BAD SHAPE... THIN BUT NOT SKELETONS-- PROBLEM IS THERE IS A BABY-- IN PROBABLY THE BEST SHPE OIF THE 5.... BUT MY PROBLEM IS.... WHEN WE UNLOADED THEM , WHAT WQS SUPPOSED TO BE TEH MOTHER WALKED RIGHT OFF THE TRAILER AND LEFT THE BABY BEHIND... NOT NORMAL AT ALL..AND THERE IS A SECOND "TEENAGE" YOUNG DONKEY ALSO..... WE HAVE WATCHED-- AND THE BABY IS TRYING TO NURSE FROM THIS MOM-- BUT SO IS THIS TEENAGER-- AND I TRIED TO SQUIRT MILK AND DID NOT GET MUCH ANYWAY... THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF SCENERIOS - BUT A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY IS THAT THIS IS NOT THE MOTHER OF THAT BABY.. THE OTHER CLUE IS THE TEENAGE DONKEY DOES NOT LOOK TO BE A YEAR OLD---- AND THE GESTATION PERIOD OF DONKEYS IS 12 MONTHS... COULD BE NIETHER ONE IS THE CHILD OF THIS MOM--- WHO'S MILK BAG IS EITHER DEPLETED FROM BOTH TRYING TO NURSE- OR EMPTY IN THE FIRST PLACE... THE BABY IS IN GOOD SHAPE-- WHICH -- IF HE WAS WITH HIS REAL MOTHER UNTIL HE GOT SEPARATED TO GET ON THE TRIALER, HE WOULD BE...
REMEMBER I LEFT SOME OF ANN'S CORN WITH BRYAN..I SAID THEN.. IT IS ALWAYS NICE O STAY ON THE GOOD SIDE OF YOUR VETERNARIAN.... AND BRYAN IS TEH HORSE/DONKEY VET-- SO I HAVE EMAILED HIM- AND HE SAID HE WOULD BE IN TOUCH AFTER 8 AM TODAY.
IN THE MEANTIME-- THE BABY IS EATING A LITTLE HAY--- NURSING A BIT ON THIS MOTHER WITH UNKNOWN PRODUCTION...AND GRACE BOUGHT A CALF NURSING NIPPLE AT THE COOP AND TRIED TO GIVE HIM SOME GOATS MILK LAST NIGHT THE NIPPLE GOES ON A SODA BOTTLE-- AND GRACE IS THE EXPERT ON GETTING YOUNG CALVES TO NURSE FROM A BOTTLE... SO SHE TRIED...GOT A LITTLE IN...
I WORRY ABOUT HIS FLUID INTAKE IF HE IS NOT GETTING MILK FROM HER--- LORD KNOWS WE HAVE FLUIDS IF BRYAN THINKS IT NECESSARY.
I KNOW WE JUST HAVE TO STAY AHEAD OF THIS-- THE BABY IS IN GOOD SHAPE RIGHT NOW.... BUT HE IS NOT GOING TO STAY THAT WAY IF HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO EVEN DRINK WATER FROM A PAIL...
AND MEGAN IS SICK....
OTHER THAN THAT THINGS ARE NORMAL
HA !
