Acorns & Hazels
It’s been a cold week. Brrr. And lots of rain. Not large amounts, but it just seems to be a constant slight downpour. I haven’t seen much of the sun. If only I could go to sunny Brazil. One of the pictures on Mia’s Facebook got reposted by a Brazilian page and it has gotten almost 4000 views. I think that’s a new record. Maybe I can take Mia on a tour of South America. Either that or hibernation. I’m experimenting with warmer clothes. But I haven’t found the right mix yet. Too cold. Which has made me go home from the playground early. And since Bodil has been late a few times we haven’t seen so much of each other. On Thursday she called me on the phone and asked if I was with the goats. Which I was. So she said she’d just put on a coat and be right down. She lives almost next door to the playground. Soon after her little dog Sif came running to say hello to me at the fence of the goat pen. It makes me happy that seeing me means that much to Bodil. Talking to her means a lot to me too. It always makes the day better when I get to see and Sif.
Other than that there’s nothing new. Had foot therapy which went fine. I may have corn. A corn? Acorn. I don’t know. Seems to be doing okay, though. But that’s about as exciting as things have been this week. Let’s go to some goat pictures.
It almost looks like Mia is practicing the headrolls that Kamel always does. But she’s just trying to reach a branch.
Mio reaching for the hay. And is that a baby bump I see? Quite possibly.
And Mio and Mia on their respective side of the hayholder. This is the picture that made it big in Brazil. Which is funny because I think there are cuter pictures on Mia’s page. But it’s all good!
Nosey Mia!
Mio and me.
I love when Palle walks up to me and stands underneath my pocket and looks up at me like that. Quick with the raisins, mister!
And Kamel’s mouth hanging slightly open.
Kamel again. Had to bribe her with a raisin to get her to take a picture with me.
And sweet Palle again.
And a goatlog. Rain and goats and hay and all that stuff.
And that’s all for this week, folks. See you in the next one.

Well at least you have “a corn” instead of an oak! hee, hee Of course that’s where the mighty oak comes from is “an acorn”.
We had a nice Thanksgiving meal at my sister and her husband’s house on Thursday. My aunt, uncle, Mom, and Dad, and me and my husband were all there.
We had turkey, stuffing, peas, all kinds of raw veggies and dip, apple salad, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, pumpkin and cherry pies, pumpkin cake, and a rasberry struesel.
Lots of leftovers to take home for several meals this weekend. The weather was great so no worries about people traveling to my sister’s house. Even the cats and our parrot had some leftover turkey.
It’s nice and sunny here today, but a little cool. I think it will be much cooler next week. The animals sure enjoy their warm water in the winter. The cats like to drink from the heated bird bath, too.

well I sure hope it won’t grow into an oak! Seems to be doing okay, thankfully.
Sounds like a lovely thanksgiving. I’d like some leftovers, please! Well, maybe I have some tomatoes left over… Getting very cold here. Too cold for me. But it’ll only get colder for a while yet. Summer soon please!
