hree out of five of us are sick. Some kind of headcold maybe. For the first time ever, my bf was going to take me out to dinner last night for Valentine's Day. When he got home, we just looked at each other and said "Next Weekend"?

So we are slow, and our brains full of mud. We were not excited to get out of bed let alone get cold weather gear on to fire up a tractor and manhandle a cow around to get a sling on this morning. But we did.. and she started flopping around as I just got it over her head. I told her it was a poor time for her to think about standing on her own, she had 5 minutes before I had slithered the sling over/under her, or she could wait 5 more minutes until the tractor got to us. 

We got her chained up and not very far from the ground (18-24"?)and she lunged to her feet. I thought the sling was crooked and she was attempting to fall on me, but she just surged to her feet. She just needed a little boost. So it is obvious that she is regaining strength from whatever ailment possesses her. Maybe next time we can use a car jack on her??? **G**

told you awhile back ago that I get sent things to review, well yesterday I got a DVD in the mail from the Granny Warriors. They sent me Aaron Russo's "Freedom to Fascism" movie. It was a very eye opening movie and I recommend that you get a copy from them. I kept saying I would not get political in the magazine and I am pretty sure I won't, but I think I can get away with it now and again on my blog. It is permissible and they encourage you to make copies of this DVD and distribute it to others. Check it out.
