Cows, animals and Me Me Me
Well today is Monday.. whoopdeedooodahhhhh. That was quite interesting writing that.. ok not really. We now have five calves and they all seem to be doing fine. I am not a country girl by no means but it keeps me busy when I am feeling down or depressed. I think that when you get out into the mother nature stuff it helps alot.. Its just when we are depressed, pushing ourselves to do anything is a chore. Especially when it comes with pain. My back hurts, my neck hurts my feet hurt blah blah blah blah...Back to the nature thing. It is finally getting warmer here in Utah but they say that there is more snow headed here. By warm I mean like 50degrees, but blue skies. My fish pond has finally unthawed and I still have way to many goldfish for the size of the pond. I called last year to the pet stores but they would not take them. I think this year I will find some cute glass bowls and put a couple in them and give them out to all the neighbor kids that come by with a little bag of food. We didnt use to have neighbors but now there is a whole new community of houses going up around everywhere. I think I have atleast 150 fish in a pond that is about 10 feet by 5 feet. They are ofcourse orange mostly but some are albino and some are black and some are black and orange. They are quite nice to watch.Trouble the kitty has still not had her babies and the bf has left out of town for Las Vegas, NV until Thursday ( not that he knows anything about birthin babies ) I just hope that she doesnt have them while he is gone. Coco the poodle dog will miss Al horribly as he takes her out every morning and afternoon, before and after work, to be his new cow dog since Baby has passed away. It seems real funny to see a big grown man driving out to check out his cows with a poodle dressed in her dresses or coat. He makes her climb on the back of the chair everyday to put it on and she does it willingly. Its pretty hilarious. He says when he drives by the other farmer, when Im not with him, he makes her duck down so he doesnt get made fun of.. Ya gotta love it.. Well thats enough for now..This is my story and Im sticking to it.. lmao.Oh yea, Sober..

Congratulations on the calves. Quite a zoo you got there. I love all them animals! Hope you feel some relief from all those pains! maybe a good soak in a hot bath...
Take care!
Your home sounds fun and INTRTESTING
That\'s a good idea to give some fish away to the neighbor kids. That\'s sweet. I\'d love to see a pic of your poodle in a dress, that\'s hilarious!
I had a cat that had kitties and waited till we came back home to have them
I had to help her pull one out as it was still born...not a pretty sight and she knew that something was wrong, hey mom\'s know!! your place sounds
great....wish I could take one of the fishies ..my kids would love it
You are a hoot...I love the poodle story. I just got a toy poodle. I named her Sugar...she has a wardrobe, but I don\'t have any cattle for her yet! I think it\'s cute that he loves her and dresses her. It all sounds fun. Congrats on sobriety...keep up all the good work! Love to you.
Sounds like things are going quite well for you right now. Keep your feelings high. You sound happy and self confident. It is really nice to hear. Hugs and kisses flying your way.
Sober! YAY!
For a moment then I thought the cat\'s bf had left town. Then I thought, firstly, how would you know it was him, then secondly, how the heck would he get all the way to Vegas on his own. I realised then it was your bf you were on about.
Love that Poodle. My Dad used to pretend we didn\'t belong to him when we were all out in public.
Had a good chuckle about the dog and your bf. I am happy you are keeping up the good work with staying sober. Pat yourself on the back. 5 little moo moo\'s huh. Better you than me. I am sure they are cute and I am sure they stink too. Have a good one.
what a wonderful journal entry! i could picture all that you wrote in it\'s glamor, including the dog..for a non-country girl you do right good with them cows! i am sure you will be fine with a kitty cat, by the way, i had a kitty named trouble...my ex has custody of him now..but he was most definitely trouble.
thats so funny... big tought farmer with a poodle in a dress....thanks for the giggle
Loved the post. I love the farm life myself. it is a different world. you sound so happy and content. you being a city girl , seem to be fitting in quite well. and the poodle is too. Keep up the great post. it is encouraging , and up building.
