Hark!! Me thinks I hear two in the kitchen right now.

Teva got two little Lamancha bucks yesterday. Cute little fellas too.

Did Teva get them from Jerry of Blanchard auction fame? I got my LaMancha bucklings at the Blanchard auction last week. Jerry said that he should have 4 female LaMancha bottle babies in the auction next week. There was only one doeling last week.

She got them from a lady by Lake Thunderbird, At birth one weighed 7 pounds and the other one was 10 pounds. The 10 pounder already had visible horn buds. Their mom was giving seven pounds of milk after 1 week and she was still picking up a little every day.

Sound advice. Sometimes it's hard for young couples to make a decision like that. Too often, they want all the things that their parents have, they just want it now rather than waiting and working for it. When I was in college I had a friend who, between he and his wife, had about $1500 per month in car payments and about that in a mortgage payment. The problem was that they were both only working part time, and were banking on all the money they would make after graduation. They were buried up to their necks in debt before they were 21 years old. That's no way to start a life.

Was that the Friends of the Library sale this evening? I never would have thought about finding books like that there. I can't go to book sales. I already have boxes of books in the barn, under the bed, multiple bookshelves of books........

Yep sure was, I had a great time, got lots of book on cassette because I have a box of paperbacks at home. I thought the goat/duck books would be good for POOPS.....Think of a different idea than the basket I normally do. I got a book on living on a few acres too...I am going to start it first.

You should have seen the look on Hubby's face when I was the successful bidder and announced that I wanted two of the little LaMancha bucklings. We have been married long enough that he knew I would be bidding on them when I sat in the very first row at the auction and asked a lot of questions about the origin and feeding of the goats. He was trying to pretend that we really were there just to "watch" the goat auction since that was the excuse I gave him for sticking around, but he knew we would be taking one home.

If I had time, I would. Right now this is the only non-school non-work project on my plate (besides buying & modifying a shed for a coop) and I just don't have the time/energy to make something.

I should also mention it's really not a matter of "time/energy" per se. It's the deadline. It adds stress to a project, at least to me, and causes me to not want to work on ANY project at all, since I'm not working on the project with a deadline.

I'm just trying to make sure I don't fail. It's difficult to remember all the stuff I have to remember.
