A Lot Of White Melted

But not all of it . At least where I usually walk is mostly clear right now. That might change Wednesday. They are calling for 3 to 6 inches then. Seems Old Man Winter likes to throw everything at us at one time this winter. We had that extreme cold over Christmas. Now he seems to think it's a good idea to give us a full winters snow in one week.
The goats are feeling better now. I did have to corner Sabrina today. Once I caught her she was fine. Onyx wasn't hard to catch at all. Only 2 more days of giving them their medicine.
Cleaned a little bit and still need to vacuum the family room. Spent time teaching Patch to sit. She is catching on to that fast. Of course a treat every few times helps. I was laughing one time. I was telling Patch to sit and Jill sat then started poking me for a good girl. . Of course I couldn't say that until Patch sat also.
Tomorrow we are going to go get eggs. The roads are clear right now. Don't know if we will be going to town this week or not. Usually hubby goes on Wednesday and I go on Thursday. It might be the weekend before we go anywhere. I might be doing the shopping Saturday after getting Patch her shots. Hubby can sit in the truck with her. He never goes in the store with me anyways if we go together.
Hope you had a good day

I am glad the white is melting. It is such a wonderful day here today. We went out immediately after lunch and walked for more than two hours. No one in the streets at that time, a wonderful walk.
Poor Jill, she also deserved a little treat for sure.

@wolfgirl569 - It was very warm here today. This weather is weird, two days ago it was freezing cold.
Poor Jill, just one pat.

@LadyDuck This has been a mostly warm winter here. I guess we need some cold

I just wish they were not calling for more white. I am tired of it. A long walk outside would be very nice. If it ever warms back up here.
Thankfully Jill is very happy with just a pat after

I told you Old Man Winter wasn't done yet.
I'm glad it was easy to catch the goats and give them their medicine.
Jill wanted in on the action. I'm sure her sitting when you told Patch helped teach Patch to sit. Treats help.
I hope you can get out and do your shopping as planned.

But he don't have to do it all at one time. Hopefully he stops throwing this fit soon
Sabrina is getting a little harder but not bad.
Jill loves to please her people. Patch does to and that helps
Right now figuring we will do the running late

@just4him Maybe if you start yelling for it to stay away and we start asking for it

@wolfgirl569 I'm trying to tell him to bring the snow here. The latest storm I'm seeing is through Illinois and Ohio and straight to the east coast. It's not coming near Wisconsin.
I'm glad Sabrina is getting easier and Jill and Patch aim to please.

The Youngstown meteorologist says it could be a monster storm…but not last because warm air will come in before it gets cold again up there.
I’m smelling salt water calling me to Florida….

@wolfgirl569 — we only got teased by our local weatherman with “I’m looking at Groundhog Day for something substantial” regarding sn*w.

I enjoyed my day today since my clipboard that I ordered from Ebay a week ago come this afternoon as well as my check for doing surveys for Survey Savvy came in.

I am so tired of this winter already. Go away already! I'm glad the goats are doing better. If you go out Wednesday or Thursday, drive carefully and be careful!

I have decided to sell the girls. I missed having goats but not as much as I am missing my chickens. If the weather is good in 2 weeks and they are still here I will take them to the auction
Right now just watching to see what the weather does

We're expecting around 8 inches up here on Wednesday. I guess I can't complain, it's been one of the mildest winters we've had

The same here. It's been mild except for short stretches. Old Man Winter needs to go back to bed

I didn't have a good day yesterday. I had a headache most of the day. I worked on my diamond painting yesterday afternoon. Today I don't have a headache.
