Busy, busy but enjoying it

I haven't been on the computer too much lately, there is just so much to do that I had to cut out the computer time. Lately my computer has been giving me fits also. A few days I had a new post ready to go, picture and all( and with dial up that takes awhile) and I got kicked off. I was so frustrated and it was too late to try again. Hopefully I can get some new pictures on soon.

After the cold(and even some snow) days we got about 4 days of rain but I have finally got some plants in my new garden. I put in broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce and some more strawberry plants that my neighbor gave too me. My new rhubarb and berry bush are doing well and so are the peas. My husband got me a DR mini tiller so hopefully I will be able to use that between the rows and really cut down my weeding time this year.

Yesterday we had a new calf. It was a holstein heifer calf. It has been quite awhile since I have had to bottle feed a calf, I was enjoying the break but soon there will be a lot more. There are quite a few cows bagging up and our busiest calving time is always around this time into July. I should be able to have lots of new baby pictures soon. Talking about babies, our baby goats are growing like weeds. I picked them up the other day and can't believe how much heavier they are and we have finally agreed on names for them, they are Maverick and Marissa. Their mom is March so we decided to keep the names all starting with an M.

We also sent away some chickens to be butchered and in the freezer. Now we only have 2 roosters crowing around here instead of about 10 of them. It is quite a bit quiter now. We are hoping to incubate some eggs soon instead of ordering new chicks this year.

There is just so much too do lately. I like being busy and love the warmer weather but some times I just need another set of hands or a longer day. Hope all is going well with everyone else. Well off to get the laundry done so I can spend my time tomorrow in between chores weed whacking.
