Good goat times today. A goorgeous, sunny day. Over 20C/68F. Which is high summer for Denmark. So good. I’m glad I had a drinking horn on my viking helmet, I’m not sure i would have made it without drinks. I didn’t get any breakfast today and maybe that was why I started feeling kinda dizzy in the heat on my way home. I made it, don’t worry!
Sweet kids visiting at the fence too, asking questions and petting the goats. One boy asked if he could give a pasta to the goats. Then he got a little scared and sort of left it on the fence and pointed at it for Mia. His mom helped him get it done properly, and Mia enjoyed the treat. I can understand how Mia can seem intimidating when you’re a little kid. “The giant one” as she’s referred to occasionally. As Sky is ‘the baby’. And Milo is ‘the bandit’.
Other than that, too hot to do much but sit around. Mia gets so tired in the sun. Panting. I still think of her as my baby, but you know she’s getting to be an old goat. She’ll be turning 9 in a couple of months. She definitely takes more breaks these days. Especially when it’s sunny. We’ve been through a lot, I think we deserve a summer of just sitting around in the sun. Let the kids do all the running around.
Well, as soon as I bring out treats or go to my backpack, Mia still comes running like a kid. Not too old to get excited for food. I hear ya, Mia. I get excited when the pizza guy rings my doorbell too.

Went on a couple of bucket runs to make sure the goats had fresh water in the heat. I’m glad the outdoor faucet is working again.

Had a doctor’s appointment this morning as well. To go over the results from my last tests. Generally things are decent. My blood sugar is a little up. Not alarmingly, but something to work on. It’s not surprising, I’ve put on weight too, the depression hasn’t been good on my eating habits. But I’ll work on it.
There was a cute kid at the doctor’s office. Like a little goat, running around being super curious about everything. Her mother was chasing her around going “no you can’t go in there. No you can’t touch that. No you can’t go in there. Hey look at this picture. No you can’t press that”. Haha. Seemed like a handful, but the mother, and everyone else, took it with a smile.

Well, my new double platform was not allowed to remain. I suppose it’s ok, they took the pavement tiles and laid out a little path. You can see it in the picture. The pallet was the foundation for the new second platform. Now instead there’s a little walkway next to Nuller’s rock. That place is one of the worst when it’s muddy, so this will be really good in fall and winter. The mud there was so bad. The timing is just a little wonky, since were going into the summer season and the mud won’t be a big problem for a while. But alright. I’ll miss the double platform. But the pallet is still there so there’s still something to stand and sit on. It’s not too bad.
Funnily enough Mia spent a lot of time sitting on the first platform today. I don’t think she’s sat there ever since we came back from the horse field. But maybe she likes it better with a pallet next to it. Or maybe it’s just because it’s cleaner now with the mud gone. She can sit on the platform and I can sit on the pallet. Pretty good.

I tell you hwat, I still love me some Radiohead. I don’t know if kids today still think they’re cool. But you put on a Radiohead concert from literally any era and I’ll happily listen to it all.
Humanity has a lot of flaws, but you gotta low the art it makes. Music, books, movies, paintings. The ability to extend ourselves beyond our mortal limits, is pretty neat.

Good goat times today. A little bit of slight rain on my walk there, but thankfully it passed and we got mostly sunshine afater that. I arrived to a big drama at the playground. I found kitty Heino sitting outside the goat pen. I thought he was relaxing and I could get some cuddles in. But he was not relaxing. He was on the prowl. He was hunting a mouse. He was suuper focused. I saw the little mouse a couple of times, I think it was trying to hide under things where Heno couldn’t get to. But Heino was persistant. He squeezed himself under stuff and scaled an enclosure and would not give up. He got to the mouse a couple of time too. I heard the little squeaks. I’m not sure if he was toying with it or if he just didn’t get properly hold of it. But the hunt continued. I am not sure if he ended up getting it or not. I must admit I felt a little bad for the mouse. Those little squeaks… but I guess it’s nature’s way and all that. That’s what the barn cats are there for.
A little later on I had Sky out of the pen to do some filming and Heino came back. But Sky chased him off. there’s always a bigger fish! Even though Sky is the baby of the goats, she’s still bigger than Heino and with horns. A wise retreat by the mouse hunter.
After all that drama I spent the rest of the time mostly just sitting in the sun with the goaties. That’s more my jam.

Here’s a snapshot from the big drama. Heino hunting the mouse. At least, I think it’s a mouse. I know we’ve had a rat problem at the playground. Would cats go after rats too? I don’t know if any of you can tell from the picture, it went way too fast to get a good shot.

New change at the playground. That barrier in front of the shelter. I wish it wasn’t so tall, it’s even taller than the one in front of the goat house! But I guess it’s ok. It will help keep the bedding in there and make it all less messy. And the goats have no problems getting in. Here’s Nuller scaling it to get in with his mama Lily. In fact, the goats spent more time in there than I can remember them ever doing on a sunny day. Maybe they like that barrier, it’s always good to have walls and corner and stuff for security. They all had turns sitting in there in the shade today.

Here are the newbs sitting in the shelter, behind the new barrier. You can see there’s considerably more space between Nuller’s rock and the shelter. I’m not sure I’m a fan.. but eh, as long as the goats like sitting in there, I guess it’s good.

Got a problem on my facebox. When i look at my feed I only the first post, then it stalls. I think it’s loading in a ‘would you like to sponsor this post’ thing from Mia’s page. But it doesn’t load anything after that. So I can barely read posts. Sorry if i’m missing anything important. Not that I don’t always do that anyway.
In other news, that was a good pizza.

The boys sitting togher. You don’t see that too often. Usually Milo sits with Sky and Nuller with his mama Lily.
Good vantage point for Nuller to keep an eye on his rock there, though.

Sky’s favourite place to sit seems to be the unstable platform, which has been stable since wrestled the second rock over to it. There’s even room for me, although i do have to hang out.

Happy with tears in my eyes!
I know you all don’t care about the Danish soccerballsports, so I won’t go on about it for too long. But the club that has been part of my life since I was a little boy just won the Danish championship, for the first time in 16 years. We used to be the biggest club in Denmark, one of the biggest in Scandinavia. And then for so long everything was just a mess. And now we’re back. In a crazy season. With not the best or most expensive team. Against all odds, and all that. I wasn’t sure I’d eer see it again.
You know, in the grand scheme of things it’s not like it matters.
But it matters to me.
I feel like Jack, when Ben showed him that the Red sox had won the title. I guess maybe there is a real world out there after all…

Good goat times today. A rainy morning. Which was too bad because there were kids who wanted goat times too. When I got there, Kasper, one of the employees, was there with kids. I don’t think they were visitors, I think they were kids connected to the playground and the club they have there. Kaspe was excited to see me and told the kids about how I was the goat whisperer and how in the summer I’d take the goats out for walks and one of the goats even jumped on my back and all that. Haha. Unfortunately due to the rain, the goats decided that I was not whispering loud enough and therefore they would not come over to the fence. At least the kids got to listen to the goats bleating for me, and they asked some questions. One of them recognised my Star Wars hat too. Nice kids.
Eventually they went back to the club and stuff, and I went and spent some nice time listening to the rain with the goats. The weather forecast looks promising for the end of the week and next week. We may be getting some summerly weather. Here’s to hoping!

It wasn’t all rain today. It cleared up later on, and I did some exterior decorating. Notice the difference? We got two pavement platforms again! Remember before the summer last year we had those two paved platforms that I made. When we spent the summer in the horse field they did construction in the goat pen and one of the platforms disappeared. And the pavement tiles were just gone. Well today, a few of tehm were suddenly lying around. I think maybe they’d been buried under the hay in the shelter. Anne has been cleaning up in there to change the hay. Long loong overdue. So I think maybe that’s where they were. In any case, I decided to act quick and rebuild the second platform. I didn’t ask permission, so I guess it’s possible they were going to use that stuff for something else. And they may dismantle what I’ve built. But I hope not. I’m really happy with having two platforms there again. It’s so much better. It will be when the mud is gone anyway. And the wooden board that I’d been laying out as a makeshift second platform, well now i’ve put that down on the ground to extend the double platforms. It’s much more stable than before where it was balanced on a couple of concrete blocks. Now there’s just more platform space, paved and wooden, and it’s all better. And I got some suff leftover that I used to improve the unstable platform where the goat tower used to be, and that’s much better now too. All in all I am quite pleased with it. I mean it’s still just hodgepodge makeshift throwing junk together. Not going to win any beauty prizes. But I do what I do with what I got, just happy to have stuff for the goats to stand on.
Here it’s Mia and Milo standing on the new, secodn platform. You can see there’s a space between the two platform, like there was before last summer.
And there’s a little Lily in the back.

Here’s a little before and after.
The top part is the before. Mia and Milo are standing on the wooden board that wobblily elevated. Only one plattform to the left of them.
On the bottom is the after. Two platforms and the wooden board is now on the ground as an extension. Once the mud dries off I hope the goats will want to sit there. Especially I’d like to see Milo and Sky sitting next to each other, one on each platform. It kind of reminds of a Star Wars spaceship. Like a twin-ship. You just have to imagine them sitting there and then a cockpit over them. And then they take off and what no I’m not weird.

By the way, thank you to everyone. Who cares about me, who pays attentions to me, who humours me, who shares humour with me. Who hangs around. Who is a part of my world. When I feel like I barely care about myself and barely want to be in this world, it warms my heart and helps me that there are people out there who are glad I’m here. I’m probably not good at making you feel appreciated, but you are. Thank you for giving me reasons to not give up on myself.
