early. but i want to spend most of the evening with the babies. a Turn of Events today. Monica, the young woman with the kids that came last year and took 4 of the bucklings, called. Her life has changed. the Man last year left her. then came back to take what they had. so now, she's trying again with someone new and living in Lemitar, 4 miles or so away. She saw the ad on the grocery store board. She wants Goats again. He took everything. including her horses, her pig and her Goats. She lives now in a place with many livestock pens, shelters. and no animals. Goats. she wants Goats.
so. i tell her let me think. i think. i call her back.
the Vet Tech has not called. i'd called her a couple weeks ago saying the kids are ready to go. she said she still wanted them, 2, a doe and a wether, but that with the County and State fairs, being 8 mos. pregnant, etc. etc. she was not ready. she would call. she hasn't. am feeling it is not a priority. ok. so. here appears Monica. who is very ready. so i make a deal with her. 1 doeling and 2 wethers in exchange for intermittent moral support here when i need it. for help now and then with hoof trimming. she's close. she doesn't work. she LOVES Goats.
so unless something changes, which it can, tomorrow or very soon she will take 3 of Lucky Star's kids. THIS allows me to keep Celia, (Marti) and then Starling (doe) and Nogal (intact buckling). she also will take Nogal if he doesn't work with the other bucks. am hoping he can. but i don't know. and just to be clear, this will leave one doe each for Lucky Star and Caroline. this will allow me to milk only once a day in the morning if i want to. it would allow me to be able to go see my son's new girl, Giana Alluvial Fan, when she's born. just let the doelings take over in my absence.
Logistics.
and the Personal Moon is finished. and i figured out how to do it AGAIN….is pictured in the SHOP.
she had been waiting. with her paper face. Here we go.
i already know something about this One. i need a rearranged self, a re-designed self that can move in these days that have been Forming. i need to retrieve parts of an old self, create parts i have never chosen to have. Add these to the present self. Weave/Stitch them in. i need a self that works with this Now. different, but much the same. but different in ways that the Present needs.
so…ok. here We go.
