Today was hard. I sold two more goats. The last I will be willing to let go. Buttercup and Charlotte are now at their new home. Thankfully with a friend who I know will care for them well! But having less on my plate is necessary right now. Sold one Gander and the rest of the geese are on a pending status. The sad reality right now is, I cant do it all. I need to free myself up to take care of Elmer. That includes cutting feed bill, out side work load and letting things be for now. Thats not easy when dream has not changed. But for now it's on hold. I will take each day as its given and do what I can. For now this is all I can do. Maintain, with the help of my kids.

I have had so much on my mind. While Elmer is my primary focus, I can still plan. I may not do a garden this year, but I can plan next seasons by building the health of the soil up. I may not get the chicken coop done this year, but I can begin downsizing the rooster population and possibly encourage the hens to lay in the coop by keeping water and feed in there. While many things will have to be put aside, planning and doing small things toward those plans is still moving forward. That is encouraging .
