All before 9:30am!

Heifers tied & fed
Sheep fed and clean water
Pigs fed
Tomato plant, Christmas Cactus, Hosta (not sure on spelling) all watered-these are the only plants I have still living!
Cereal served
Laundry started
Beds made
Put up 4 quarts of peaches
Made a peach Crisp (in the oven now)
We have done all this before 9:30am.
Seems pretty good, but why am I in such a rush? Ya, the vet is coming-sometime this afternoon-to ultrasound Princess' heifer, to check out her ovaries, then to pregnancy check Boy1's Shorthorn Plus and Hereford show heifers.

With this wonderful heat (sacrasim) we went out at 7pm last night to tie up the cow/calf pair, and the three fall heifers. Worked with all of them, if you have never seen an almost 2 month old calf on a halter, it is the push and shove show, one person pulls as the other stands behind and push and the other 4 laugh!  We did not come into the house until after 10pm.

The heat is already upon us this morning, so the Boy 2 is in the house until later this evening, Boy1, Princess and I are checking heifers, every hour, Boy 1 had 8:30a, Princess 9:30a, Me 10:30a and then repeat!  I really would rather be hot than cold, but this is over load hot!!!

Hubby said last night that later in the week tomatoes will be ready to put up and I will have an overload of supply.  Right now, here in the midwest tomatoes are the only thing producing and producing they are!

No more rush for me today, I am going to hang out with my kids.

Have A Great Day:)
