What did you do today?

[blackie's maiden]

This a this week rather than a today report. Monday, trip 80 miles one way to our goat vet. Sprite has a swollen knee. Time for Mischief to lose his family jewels. So had to be there by 10 am and could not pick up until after Mischief came out of sedative, about their closing time. So we had to kill a whole day therr. Finally got home,.turned them loose and got food.ready cor everyone for that night. After dark, Speedy Gonzales, my small A.D.H.D. horse didn't show up for supper. Robert saw blood all over gates, some bloody puddles on ground and the horze trough was red. We broke out the mule.and combex the pazture. No Speedy. We.decixed to have one more.search. loser to the barn and therr he was, blood all over front legs, even back legs. After looking at his.legs.we found the source of the bleeding was his nose. A slit, very very deep and almost running from nostril to upper lip,.maybe only about 3/4 inch keeping the two from joining the slit. No vets available. Today no better. One on vacation, other out all day on farm calls. Well, one on vacation has someone filling in on emergencies calls. So we must make another vet call, 40 one way. Then we have a follow up on a barn.kitty we got "free". So far due to fact he was ill, "free" took about $158 out of the bank account. Then the four new barn kitties all lose family jewels and.get shots somewhere in all this. And Friday, i have to take my Old.Goat, Robert, to the doctor. Hard to.say which set of medical bills costing uz the most, human or animal.
