We had a gully-washer this afternoon, too! I didn't think we had any rain in the forecast, but Sammy (one of my Shelties) said otherwise and he is never wrong. About two hours before, he started pacing and then became not just Velcro dog, but Gorilla Glue dog, lol! He did not lie, either.
You deserve it! Wish someone could treat you like that alla the time!
I love this, Granny!
Good to see you, Cherry, we've missed you!Hi y’all. Can’t keep up with the rest of BYC so imma hop in here first (though I am hopelessly behind here too). Been real busy lately and honestly just trying to take care of my mental health. I finished freshman year as top 4th in my grade of 150+ students, so I guess its safe to say it paid off. Honestly didn’t know they still did grade ranking though…doesn’t seem very healthy to promote that kind of competition. Otherwise, I’m officially ON my summer break, though I'm certain the break part of it got left behind.
It’s getting hot over here, so I have several fans covering the animals. Hammie is toward the lighter side of fair weight, but we got another week to go until fair. Goats are bagging up real quick, and I need to give them some selenium soon. Chickens are doing good, no more broodies-which is practically a miracle in itself!! Also means that I can start selling them off soon. I’ve been enjoying the barn owls around here too. It’s their nesting season and a family of barn owls is occupying a little birdhouse at the edge of the property. I try not to bother them, but since I go on night walks, I sometimes bring my camera and practice night photography. I would love to become a veterinary practitioner with extensive training in avian practice. I am absolutely OBSESSED with birds...though can't say I'm not obsessed with all the other animals!
Think I will spend most of my summer doing next years curriculum again. Seems that last summer's studies have helped me this year. I try to tell myself that a harder today sets a foundation for an easier tomorrow. That being said, I probably won’t be on BYC as much, just wanted to update so you guys don’t think I fell off the face of the earth!! Oh and I did some research and found out I actually have a neighbor who’s an equine/livestock vet. Will reach out to her in the coming few weeks. Probably would be nice to have her on call for the goat kiddings anyway.
Here's Kiki's dna stuff from embark. Turns out she is mostly poodle and chihuahua with little to no terrier. Sorta shocking! View attachment 3164304
Her health is looking promising. Hope my baby can be with me when that DVM degree hits my hand. View attachment 3164305
I'm rambling, aren't I? Well, I've missed yall.
Ramble all you want! When you get that DVM degree, be sure you come back and let us know so we can throw you a virtual party! Sounds like you're well on your way! 
Well of course he does well! Look who he has for a sister, hehee! Congrats to him and you both!
I got one feather so far...
