Friday!!

Well Friday morning started at 5:40 as I went out to check the sheep/lambs in the barn, and yes it was COLD!!!  Two new lambs had been born between 2:00 and 5:40 and they were frozen!  Yes one of them felt like they had ice cubes for ears, so I swipe them both and in to the bathtub they go!  I get our hair dryer and get to work, they couldn't even hold heads up because they were frozen.  I left them and continued my morning and by that time it was 6:30.  Well I need to leave for work by 7:00, therefore it wasn't going to happen so I called and told them I would be there later, like around 11:00!  Meanwhile Brandon had worked on the sewer Thursday and he could fix the problem so told me to call Roto Rooter and they were coming mid morning, also Tucker had fallen up the steps Thursday evening and the puppy was limping on her leg!  Sheww, so I warmed the lambs, got them to eat, took the puppy to the vet, meanwhile the hot water heater quite working because of the wind, and I got the boys on the bus to school!!!  I get home from vet, chopped ice for cows, took lambs back to the barn, took a shower (thankfully had enough hot water) and headed to Memphis for a half day of teaching.  Dad handled the Roto Rooter man and things were going up!!  I continue through the day and dream of a drink!!!!
3:15- I leave school to head home and see about animals and continue my day!!   I pull down the hill and see an accident!  I stopped behind the traffic and look around, there I see a 1st grader in the car by herself her mother is an RN and had ran to help!  Therefore I sat with her for 15 minutes until her mom got back so she wouldn't be scared!!
I am here to say the big man above works in mysterious ways, he was showing me that it could always be worse to pull up my big girl pants and do my best... that is all we can do!!  So I smile, be thankful I am able to fight the farm life, glad the dogs leg was not broken, the lambs are still alive, the sewer smell is gone, drains are draining and the wind changed directions so the hot water heater is working. 
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
