    Hi everybody

    I've heard through the grapevine that some of you have asked about me now and again. Yes, I'm still alive and kicking. Just seem to be so busy doing this and that, running here and there. Right now, I'm sitting in a hotel in Bismarck, ND. Exciting!!!! I miss you all, too, and I do lurk in the...

    How do you all find time?

    To be on here so much, that is? Good Lord, it's days between each time I can catch a few minutes just reading and catching up, let alone posting. Tonight the guys are out baling so I finally have some time alone. Between keeping up things in the house, and in the yard, and cutting hay, my time...

    So this is what green looks like

    I'm in Billings, and I'm amazed at how green and lush it is around here! Nothing like home. Cows are fat and sassy, haying has gotten underway. I've even seen rain!!!!! Now, if I could just pack all this up and take it back home with me, I surely would. Talked to best friend yesterday, and it's...

    Shaping up to be another dry, dusty, windy day

    :mad: Man, we sure could use some rain!!! Yesterday was hotter than h*ll, with a horrible wind. Today will be a repeat of that. Last night, all you could see was dust blowing up in the air everywhere. It's too bad the neighbour hasn't started seeding yet, cause it always rains when he does...

    Preg checkin' a cow - question

    If a person was to do this, and has never done before, what should he or she be feeling when they do? Say, the cow was at least a month to two months from calving or not. Only reason I ask is because best friend and I were hauling culls to the yards today, and some of them may or may not have...

    I hate to be a pain in the butt, but is it possible for you to make your pictures smaller? It takes forever to download them on dial-up, sometimes I even get disconnected because my computer thinks it's tired. I'm missing out on a pile of pictures!

    I see you asked me in another post if I enjoyed not calving cows. Yes and no. I sure didn't miss it at all when we had all the cold weather we did, I felt sorry for the guys who were dealing with it, though. I still help over at the best friend's when he needs it. Tagging, castrating, moving out...

    I guess the old girl wanted to go out with a bang.

    Best friend told us last night that one of the cows he bought from us two falls ago gave birth to triplets. She is 15, and was to be retired this fall. But retirement will come earlier for her as none of the calves lived. They were premature, each one weighed no more than 30 pounds. She...

    Ladies, I have a question...

    And boy, I hope I don't look dumb for asking! Here goes. I went clothes shopping the other day, and on impulse I bought a sweater and a blouse, never even looked at the washing instructions like I normally do. Anyways, they both say handwash, which I hate doing. Sure, I could return both items...

    There is no place like home!

    Left Feb. 6th for Louisville, Kentucky for what I assumed would be a well deserved holiday. Then we were going to pop over to Phoenix to watch a little NHRA drag racing then head for home on the 23rd. Well, I couldn't do it! After days of driving to get to Louisville, I was more than ready to...

    Anybody see this movie yet? We went yesterday. This might be Clint's best movie yet.

    Ouch!!!

    I just got done with an appointment with a drapery shop, I was looking to buy blinds and drapes. Seven windows, $6500!!!!!! I phoned the husband and he just said "Holy s***! That's a little pricey for a few yards of fabric and some wood, don't you think?" I tended to agree with him. So, seeing...

    I'm in!

    My new house, that is. Actually, my almost new remodelled house. After 7 months of screw-ups and mistakes, it's done, and we are officially moved in. Furniture has been bought and almost all of it has been delivered. Personal belongings are put away in their new surroundings, and I guess I can...

    Kentucky-weather-middle of February?

    Can anybody give me a hint on what to expect? We're thinking about driving down to go to the National Farm Machinery Show. Oh, and anybody going?

    It's not a nice day today

    It's cold, it's windy, it's snowing, it's freezing raining, it's very icy. Need I say more?

    Would you?

    I was putting the renewal stickers on my health services card this morning, and there's a place to put a sticker if you want to be an organ donor. I've thought seriously about this, and I think I'm going to do it. If I can help someone by giving them a chance at life, why wouldn't I? So now...

    How lame!

    Did you all hear Kevin Costner has taken up singing country songs? I heard one on the radio the other day. It's hurtin'! Good Lord, the man can hardly act, let alone sing!

    OK, who ordered up this crappy weather???

    Since Sunday, it's been cold, windy, and rainy. Damn tired of it already. I hear rumours that come this Sunday, we're going to see snow. :mad: And I hear it's coming in from Montana. Could you all just keep it down there, please?

    Okay, I think I might be a putz!!

    The other day, the husband and I were down fishing at the river. He caught this big-ass jackfish, and it took the two of us to get him out of the water. I netted him so I could get the hook out. Well, he managed to spit the hook out himself, so I told the husband to let him go. He said no way...
