May 28:  Playing catch up again.  On the 23rd, I spent the day at Daughter's place planting flowers in their yard. 

The 24th, we went into Owosso to do some errands and made a stop at the goat show to see how it was going.  I would normally be showing, but with goats still due I decided not to.

On Memorial Day the 25, Husband and I spent the day pulling weedings and cleaning up one of our flower gardens.  In the early evening, Daughter, her husband, and Oldest Son and his family came over and we had an impromptu dinner together.  Each family brought whatever they had and we cooked on the grill and ate together. 

Tuesday the 26th, Husband took Daughter to her dental appointment and then when we got the call that she was done, I picked her up and we headed for U of M for another appointment, this was with her Hemotologist. 

Wednesday the 27th, I was up at 4:00 AM, barn time and in the barn by 4:30 AM to get my milking done so that I could go with Daughter again, to U of M.  This time it was for an MRI and a mamogram.  Things were running late at the MRI and we didn't leave the hospital until 3:00PM!  We had spent six and one half hours there for just two tests!  Lots of just sitting around and waiting, long day!  When we got home Husband told me he had to bury one of the goaties, we had been nursing her for about three days and she just couldn't fight any longer.  Not sure really what was wrong, but she wasn't the strongest right from the start.  Also got a call from Old Neighbor, he was checking on Daughter, but he also had an experience to tell...both he and his wife were taken to hospital over the weekend, in an ambulance no less!  Will need to keep in touch with them, just to help out if need be.  He doesn't like the idea of us helping, but I told him he pulled me out of trouble different times, so now I get to help him out.  This is as it should be.

During evening chores, Husband came out and started to clip the milkers.  He roughed them in while I finished milking and washing up, and then I did the final details.  We got three done.  Good job!

Thursday, out in the barn to check due doe, nothing, caught up on blog.  Have much to do, clip goats, there are four that can be done right now, with two still heavy with pregnacy, so will wait on them.  Dehorn and castrate seven kids and weigh the first triplets, they are a month old today!  On top of all that, I need to make bread for us, as well as zucchini bread for the 4H bake sale this coming Sunday.

Time to get rolling...
