Busy, Busy, Busy

Maggie and I spent the day fixing the fences in the ewes pasture. Well, mostly Maggie fixed the fences while I ran back and forth to Tractor Supply. I think we have all the supplies we need to get the job finished tomorrow before the insane heat comes back.

I spent the weekend in DC and had a lovely, much-needed break. Ate some sushi. Saw a movie. Slept late. It was just what I needed. Of course, now I feel terribly behind. I’ll try to catch up tomorrow but in the meantime, enjoy these pictures of Rushworth, a.k.a. Tiny Lamb. He is doing very well, grazing and eating grain as well as nursing from his mama. He has gained weight and is getting so tall that he actually has to duck a bit when he nurses now!

More news tomorrow.

Mr. Tiny Rushworth is looking very sturdy– my hope is rising for his long-term survival, and that he’s turned the corner. He looks SO much better!

You’re a Texan and you call this area’s heat crazy? It is, though, isn’t it? It’s the humidity as I’m sure you know.

Glad you learned you’re not allergic to bees!

So glad to see Rushworth doing so well. I talk about him everyday at work and now I have everyone loving him too.
Thanks for the update.

It’s funny that the survival of a tiny, frail lamb far far away could make me so happy. but it does. =)

I’ll trade you our out of season cold and rain for the heat…

Glad you enjoyed your trip to DC.

You know, I think you could sell Rushworth fanclub memberships…The little guy has quite a following already.
