Loaded up three steers and one yearling colt and headed for town. Couldn’t find anything in Crackerjacks eye, so he just injured it somehow. Vet didn’t think it had happened over a couple days ago. I am supposed to put stuff in his eye at least four times a day and every two hours would be better.
Took the steers back to the owner. He has lots more that they will fit on with and he’s shipping them the end of the month. Glad my numbers came out right for him and the last bunch. Now, if I can just find the lost little bull!
Got up to 90 or so here today and quite a stiff breeze. Got a tire put on the trailer, discovered one rim was no good so got a “new to me” rim and had the old tire put on it for a spare.
We had Gus and Sam last night and Gramma had them all day. Gus had a rough night and got us up in the night and we sat up and watched a movie until he went back to sleep. So Hope came tonight and stuck around. Chance got a job working on some road construction so he gets gone early and comes home late. He stopped in to see the boys and helped put them to bed. Cindy will watch them tomorrow also. This new job of Chances will only last about a month and then back to a “normal” schedule.
Cindy and Hope took the boys out and saddled Patches and let them ride her around and around. I put more stuff in Crackerjacks eye and then put the boys on and held them, one at a time. Crackerjack didn’t seem to mind too much. He might make a kid horse yet! 😉
How old is Gus? Crackerjack will love kids before you know it! We are not supposed to get above the 70s at all the rest of this week! The highest it is supposed to get is 69! I am soo not ready for winter! Have fun with the grandkids!
Gus turned 2 in March. Sam turned 1 in January. They are 10 months apart.
OH, the terrible two’s! Now I understand!
