It’s better to be lucky than good.

(This quote is taken grossly out of context from one of my favorite blogs).

I just want to let everyone know
that the newsletter may be delayed due to - GOATS!
I was supposed to be writing tonight, but when I got home
from work, guess what I found? Kids. Actually, one kid, and a
doe that obviously wasn’t done kidding.
So, I spent the evening trying to turn a buck kid who was
stuck like a cork in a bottle, so his mother could shove him out.
It took me 20 minutes just to figure out exactly what she was
presenting. It turned out to be both front feet down and the
head tucked between them and underneath his body.
One hour later, I now have three (!) BUCK kids. After the
cork was removed, the next one plopped out just fine. Mom feels
like she gave birth to a freight train.
All is well and I need a bath and a drink, not necessarily
in that order. I got lucky today.
I always thought goats would drive me to drink eventually!
Cheers, Leslie
