Turned up like a bad penny...lol

No I haven't fallen off the face of the earth... just been busy & slacking at posting....anyway back for now :) 

Through May & June, I was working to jobs in town plus helping on the farm,
1 was a 6 week contract entering data etc, in an office,
the other was deli assistant at an iga supermarket, which I recently quit after 16 months....time for a change,
Currently I'm unemployed and on the job hunt, and am also enrolling in "Certificate II in Animal Studies" as a stepping stone to the goal of being a Veterinary Nurse....

In other words we had good rain this last month of June tallying out at 156.5 mls or approx 6" inchs,
exceptional rain for winter,

Jasper is growing up now just a touch over 12 months....still a mad crazy pup at the moment though,




 The other dogs are doing well, Sheena, Snow & Candy.










                                                     








With the absence of Roxy who is now sleeping peacefully. 

Jardine & the Cows are all going well, no resent photos, I should get some soon.
these two blog posts introduce the cows & last years calves,
animal-introduction-no-2-cows.  the calves
Of Currently I'm milking Lozzy, who is also rearing her bull calf Flashie, & Bugsie's heifer calf Priscilla.
In the photos below, we have Flashie, (Black & White Steer, ) & Priscilla (Red & White Heifer) with Lozzy,  Priscilla is our first Guernsey x Jersey heifer

              

We sold Bugsie & Rosy some months back, as neither were performing good enough, bugsie wasn't making enough milk to rear her own calf, let alone anything else, but she was as fat as.....

Dasiy is due to calve this month, and at a guess, I'd say twins again.
Lucy & Toffee are Due to calve in Jan 13


Twinkie & Heidie are cute as ever :-)
    







 

Think that probably sums it all up for now....catch ya round :-)
