LIfe & Death

I am getting better. This has just been a weird summer. Too cool and too much rain.

One of my sheep died on Monday. He was the youngest, probably less than 8 years old. He wasn't real bright even for a sheep. I think he may have been the one that was trapped against the barn lot fence during the 6/7 flood. He didn't want to eat on Sunday. My neighbor thinks it was the heat. The woolies still have their wool because it has been too wet to shear. I don't know. He was never really robust either. One of the hair sheep isn't too chipper either. I have hay now. There is nothing like hay to make you feel rich and poor at the same time. It smells so good in the barn.

I think maybe FSA inspected the fence this week. I hope so. Of course, I am really low on $$ now. I took Fly to the vet because he has blood in his urine. She didn't find anything, yet. He got everything done except having his tires rotate and his oil changed. So, 300+ lighter I came home with some antibiotics. I don't like using antibiotics, but I guess they have their place. FSA does a 75/25 loan. I could handle that. I just want to get the fence up!

Anyway, I am a bit happier. Things will get better.
