Our cows and donkeys got out to the neighbors pasture..again. We keep patching the fence and they seem to always find away.It seems to always be something!! Luckly, thinking ahead, we left one panel easy to open to get them home. Today we were able to get the cows in..Donkeys were no where to be seen, but the pasture is quite large with 3 different areas. Tomorrow I will try to get them home. Today, I was so thankful my Son was home early and was able to help me round up the cows. After working outside most the day I was pooped lol.

Well I got side tracked. Cows were home, then gone again, donkeys came home, then left again So we definitely have a door open somewhere.
Life as a homesteader is always full of trials. But for the most part its the peace and quiet, the content of the animals, and the time we can sit back and enjoy a cup of coffee on the back porch and enjoy this life.
My husbands cancer is spreading. Not much more the drs can do short of trying some very invasive treatments, ones he will not do. So we are faced with the fact that he ma not see his next Christmas, or next grandchild's birth or see his youngest son graduate from vet school. Or he may do all that and more. As scared as this is, we choose to live. And in doing so..we are working on the chicken coop a little at a time. Ill keep you posted on our progress there .
