My Morning...

• Got up on time at 3:30. :)
• Put the coffee on, grabbed a can of Mountain Dew and headed to the barn.
• Arrived at the barn just after the birth of Halo's twins (1 doeling & 1 buckling)
• Moved Halo and the twins to the other barn.
• Went to milk barn and prepared everything for milking.
• Milked 18 does by hand.
• Prepared milk for all of the babies.
• Went to kid barn and fed 30 babies.
• You would think eating is a natural survival instinct, but one pen of babies is just not getting it. Had to bottle feed each one individually (on my lap).
• Milked down the new momma and made sure her babies had colostrum in their tummies.
• Went back to the doe barn, checked everyone one last time and opened the door to the pasture.
• Chrys started washing up from milking and feeding babies so I went to the house.
• Walked in the door and looked at the clock.......running 25 minutes late!
• Oh well...........take down the cheese that was draining and salted and seasoned (a new flavor I'm trying), put it in the press and then the fridge.
• Chrys comes in so I ask him to drain the other batch of cheese I had going.
• Jump in the shower.
• Put on my make-up and do my hair (this kind of "beauty" doesn't just happen...LOL).
• Get dressed.
• Head out the door.
• Had to stop and get gas because I was to tired last night to do it.
• My daddy and 2 neighbors were at the gas station and all wanted to visit.
• Ran into the store to grab me something to eat for breakfast.
• Got to work and clocked in..........ON TIME! :)

Now I can rest a little bit until 4:00 then it is time to head home and start all over again.......I LOVE MY LIFE! :)
