BYC Café

Yeah, my husband loves his girls! Every one having (or just had) a calf comes in to dry off, bond, get out of the elements etc. Also, you don't have to worry about one that hasn't calved trying to claim the newborn.

How many are you expecting this year, Meg?

How many are you expecting this year, Meg?

105 were expected this year. We had some sickness go through here a couple months ago that put a hurtin' on a few of our heifers. The vet tried to send a sample to find out what it was and the lab in Oklahoma was shut down due to covid.

Well, the ones that made it are looking good, Meg!

Good evening Cafe.
I've made a pot of tea for those who have been awake a while.
It's -4C here now and forcast to reach -6C overnight. We are also expecting snow on Friday apparently.
But, the sun shone today enough to feel the heat and it stayed dry. Add to this Nicola Sturgen (head of Scottish assembly) said there is no way Donald Trump is going to be allowed into Scotland on the 19th of Jan and he'll have to play golf elsewhere and the world doesn't seem so bad.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready. Another extra large pot.
Bad news on the tests for DH. He has a very high probability of having prostate cancer. He is going in for a biopsy on 1/15. We have to find out what type it is before knowing what the treatment will be.
One day prior to learning this, my sister arrived from Texas full of, I mean FULL, of her own drama. I haven't spoken to her for about 3.5 years, haven't seen her for about 20. I'm extremely sympathetic to her but cannot deal with the drama. She needs to be in counseling. She and I are completely different on many fronts and a close relationship is unlikely. We've never been close and disagree on nearly everything. She is now living with my mother.
Happy New Year...

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear about DH, Tonya. Somehow I missed this whole page. I hope they find nothing, but if they do, praying that it's treatable. Big hugs from many miles away.

Is counseling something your sister would be receptive to? I hope her drama doesn't turn to full blown trouble for your mother or you.

She thinks everyone else needs counseling.
I stopped to pick up the tax bills to pay for mom and sister was the only one there. I tried to grab and dash but it didn't work. She's all fired up about useless nephew. Go to the back of the line, woman!!
That household is a powder keg with a very short fuse and I think it's going to ignite soon and blow sky high.
NOT
MY
PROBLEM!!!
Mom wanted her there. She got what she wanted. Leave me out of it!
