Random Monday Thoughts

Another weekend has passed. Fall is here and the weather is beautiful, we still need a ton of rain to catch up on our yearly requirements, but we have to trust in the Lord to care for us in His time, not ours.  Had to spend the day indoors teaching school.  Still finding it hard to be motivated applying ourselves to school since we've recently had so many exciting outside adventures.  The boys and I spent some time talking about our favorite vacation memories, reliving the moments and planning on next year's trip.  If we decide to go away from the farm for a long visit, we'll have to limit our does in milk and/or plan on drying animals up before we leave.  That is something we will really need to think about as we were going to try to bottle feed more bucket calves this spring, and had planned on having 8 does in milk.  Hmm, we may have to sit out in some 4H projects, glad we have another week to decide on projects for the new year.
