Pearl and Sadie have huge udders. We thought for sure we’d have baby sheep by now, but all we have are big-bosomed sheep. It’s good the sheep didn’t pop when we expected them to because, as usual, we procrasinated and needed the extra time to put together a lambing kit. I really, really hope I don’t have to use those shoulder-length gloves.

Kc came for a visit this weekend. There are no pictures of her because she is in the witness protection program. She helped us take some kitties to the vet for their checkups and shots, and while there she got to use her nursely knowledge to participate in the vet’s Jeopardy-like questioning of the vet techs. Kc is very smart. She also made us a yummy pot pie and showed me a really good snickerdoodle recipie. I am now a snickerdoodle addict. Helpful hint for cooking pot pie: don’t do it while making snickerdoodles unless you have two ovens. Kc also took me shopping and got us a car seat. (Thank you Kc and Ken!!) We weren’t sure it was going to fit in the truck, so after we left the store we took the seat out of the box and tried to figure out if it’d work. We got so involved in the creepy illustrations and in locating the doodad on the bottom of the “restraint” that it was about ten minutes before we realized all we had to do was see if the thing would fit…not make sure it was at that point properly installed. It fits! It also holds groceries and keeps them from rolling around. Maybe we should get another one just for grapes and tomatoes.

We dropped Kc off at the airport this morning. Andy and I decided today would be a good day to get the plants out of the under-house room where they spent the winter and to fill and hang the bird feeders. We got the feeders filled and cleaned up the plants, and then Andy checked the weather. So, we took all the feeders down and moved all the plants under the porch so they won’t blow away and/or freeze to death. Oops.

My belly button is disappearing. In another week I will have no proof I’m not a clone grown in a tank.
