Watch out for the Barngoddess1

It's Friday and the Barngoddess1 has been babysitting friend's little girls. Been a regression back to our younger (and I mean younger days). Glad we don't have 4 and 1 yr olds running around here anymore.

Of course we still have 2 week and 3 week and 3 month old animals, but that is a little different.
So the Barngoddess1 sells another calf today, and dang if she didn't get her price. Of course she then had to go to the Vet and spend $85.00 US for a bottle of injectable antibiotics for #14 who has pneumonia. But after shots and hand feeding #14, at least he now holds his head up by himself.

Dinner time brought two more women - drop ins - wanting to know about miniature horses. I let the Barngoddess1 give them the tour while I babysat. Well I sat in my chair and told the youngest - no, no.... no no, yes, yes. nono............... get the drift?

Tomorrow at 9 am the Marionville Apple Fest parade starts. The wagon is decorated and loaded in the trailer, harness is ready, and all that is left is finding the team and loading them. Of course Jaycee is in the parade with her cheerleading group, Steph is the co-coach, so she is with cheerleaders. That leaves Barngoddess and myself, so we recruited two young friends of the family to go with us. Will try to get pics and learn how to post.

The Bus, Barngoddess1 and I had dinner last night at the Steak and shake, good visit, enjoyed the company and the idle chatter of who is doing what and where. Hope the bus gets elected.

Anyway, I am visiting my friend, Humprey Bogart, and his favorite beverage in Africian Queen, and will probably watch the debate, or better yet, let the Bus watch the debate and give me a brief sanapsus(sp) later. I want to see the VP debate - that should be good.

I do notice the Olelongrooffan has again been jog hunting and slacking in his blogging, but alas we must let him find some kind of employment so we can get him off those unemployment rolls.
After all, McCain said there was no problem with the economy of this great USA.
