This was part of the conversation Kathryn had with my mom this weekend. Of course, my mom was instantly concerned.....not about me and hubby, but about what sort of permanent scars we might be inflicting on her precious grandchild. No worries, upon further quizzing Kathryn let her know that daddy was fighting a cold, and mommy was laying on the couch fighting the muscle pain in her calf muscle!!!!
We managed to pull it together and made it to church Sunday morning. We thought we were going to have to chase a heifer. Penny was out wandering around the front lawn before we headed out the door. She managed to put herself back into the pasture before we left, so we didn't have to deal with that. This was the third time she had been out in as many days. It seems the fencer isn't packing much punch these days, and she is shimming under the fence when she wants to. There was a knock at the door yesterday afternoon, to let us know that she was out again and this time down by the road. We headed out to get her back in and she decided it was time for some fun. She ran away from us every time we moved toward her. With all five of us working together and some strategically placed trucks and a hay wagon, she went into the barn and is back in solitary confinement. Fair week is only four weeks away, so she needed to be there anyway. Needless to say, we didn't make it for church last night.
Today I got a batch of tomato juice started. The garden is producing!!!
