Saturday was typical at the store. Hardly any activity until about 10:30 then people stacked in there until about 12:30. That afternoon, Duke and I decided to worm, vaccinate and band a set of 5-6 weeks old. I know that some like to band at 4 weeks and others like to wait until 8 weeks. I kind of go with when the goats are ready, and at least 5 weeks old. I do check the signs, but sometimes, that just doesn’t fit.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, I sorted some does to put with Rumour. Somehow, out of nowhere, I got zapped on the forearm by a wasp. Oh great. Here we go again. I finished that project and began another–cleaning out the upstairs part of the big red barn. Decades of hay debris, rat turds and other crap that needed to go to a burn pit. There is a small room in the corner of the barn that was orginally the cream seperator room when this barn served as a milking parlor. I was on the roof of this room, throwing stuff down and sweeping the roof off. Suddenly, crack, ouch, ooh, that kind of hurt. The rafter that I was standing on broke. On the way down, I caught my shoulder on the next rafter and slowed my descent. Even though it hurts like hell, it is probably a good thing I caught myself as I probably would have broke the floor and ended up in the basement of the barn. <\/p>\n
Anyways, the barn is clean. Rumour should see some action this week and the weekend is over. Have a good day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
