RE: When animals throw curve balls...

in #innerblocks5 years ago

Hello my friend! :D

Isn't there a saying about us making plans and God laughing? LOL. :D I know it always seems to feel like that when my handsome husband have things all planned out in our heads and then God and Mother Nature quash our plans before our eyes and we're back at the drawing board coming up with something else. :D

One prime example of something we planned recently was to clean up the sloppy/slippery mess over by the round bale feeder. :D We put a whole truck load of gravel in that spot, smoothed it out, and made a small strip for drainage, then the heavy rain came and showed us that we didn't make anything better, we actually made it worse, oh boy. :D Thankfully my handsome husband has a great mind for figuring things like that out and once the rain stopped and he could get the backhoe over to the far end of the pond he dug a deeper trench to allow the water to flow out the back of the pond instead of overflowing towards the front of the barn and the hay feeder and that helped a lot with the issue. :D

It's great to make plans, but it's important to be flexible when they go awry and they always seem to go awry, at least ours do. :D

We learned the hard way to never chase one of our animals, we also use oats/feed/treats to lure any escapees, whether they're one of the herd, the piglets, the chickens, or the puppies. :D

I'm glad you got everyone moved over and your day turned out the way you wanted it to in the end. :D

God bless you and your wonderful family. :D Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D

It all turned out for sure! They are all moved now and settled into the new field.
