Good goat times today. I managed to drag myself out of the trash compactor and get going.
A hot one. Upwards of 24C/75F. But with a harsh humid air that made it feel much hotter. Lots of panting today. The goats too. Phew. Every time they ran around for a bit they’d stop and pant. Probably the last hot day, though. Colder weather coming in. I just want a fresh 22/71 with a light breeze, is that too much to ask for?
Well, it was good to be with the goats again. And I also got to see Ophelia. For the first time in a long time, which she also remarked upon. And we had a good, long chat. Much longer than I usually have with humanpeoples. Even if it was all simple goat stuff we talked about. Like about when Mia was sick. Apparently it was a weekend volunteer who found her and called the vet. She couldn’t get through to their regular vet and another one didn’t handle goats and told her to google ith? Wtf. She ended up getting a hold of one that had to come in from quite a ways away. Apparently it ended up being pretty expensive. But I’m really glad she did it. I’m thanful she’s better now.
We also talked about Milo’s bandit reputation haha. And she went and got hay for the goats, and made sure to put some out in the shelter too so Sky could get some without having to fight for it at the hayholders. I’m glad Ophelia looks out for Sky too.
So that was nice. And then home for a cold shower and I may partake in some iced creamery soon.

And I met this sweet lady too. Nala the barn kitty. The humid heat seemed to be getting to her too, she was more interested in lounging around than hunting rats. At least for the moment.

Despite the brutal humid hotness, I did do some exterior decorating. I found this wooden board in the goat pen. It reminded me of back at the old playground. At one point we got some boards like that. And the goats, especially Palle, enjoyed jumped around on them and jumping off them. I thought maybe this would work for that too, so I put it up on the rocks as seen here. It didn’t really work as I hoped, though. Maybe these goaties just aren’t as jump-happy. It was also too slippery because it had rained overnight. But even when it dried out in the sun, it still seemed too slippery. At least I got some cute bambi scenes of Milo and Sky sliding on it.
On the picture it’s Nuller striking a pose halfway up it.

Well as I mentioned in the last post, keeping the board up against the rocks as a jumping pad didn’t really work. So after some experimentation this is how I ended up using it. I put it on one of the pallets on the pallet mountain. It sits well there, it’s a lot more stable and safe than the pallets. And I’m not sure how well you can see it, but I actually got a second board. This one was next to the goat pen but I managed to drag it over the fence and then I put that on another of the pallets. So now they are two nice, stable platforms on top of the pallets. I quite like it. Good for the goats to sit and stand on. Of course, i have no idea if the playground staff had any plans for those boards, so I may end up finding them gone at some point. But I hope they can stay.

Good goat times today. Considerably colder all of a sudden. Around 15C/60F and a rainy morning. Looks like summer is over for a while.
Some amusing stuff today. I discovered a new thing that Milo is scared of. My jacket. I wore it for the first time in months probably. But since the rain had stopped when I got to the goats, I took it off. And when I did I sort of waved it a little at Milo. And he bleated and ran away like I’d shown him a brush. Oh dear. Haha. I got him back with a treat, but I wanted to check if he really was scared of my jacket or if it had been something else. So I picked up my jacket again. And yeah, he bleated at it and rain out of the house and stood on the platform and pooped. I scared the poop out of him again. Silly boy!
And then later, Lily treated me to a doulbe toot salute. She sneezed and farted at the same time. Haha. That does not happen often, at least not in a clearly audible way. Maybe the third or fourth time I’ve ever seen a goat do it. Pretty hilarious. And half a minute later she was pooping. Thankfully she’d gotten off the bench before she started that.
So an amusing day. Got to talk a little with Ophelia again too, so that was nice as well. And when the sun was out it was quite lovely.

Slept for a long long time. Had a bunch of wacky dreams. Lot of them were quite dark and disturbing, but I don’t mind that. My favourite though, was the dream where Esther the wonder pig moved into my house! And she had piglets. Suddenly I had a house full of little piglets, and it was as wonderful as it sounds.
Just hope the goats don’t find out I dream-cheated on them.
