Good goat times today. Cold still, but at least dry and a little sun now and then. Feathers and furs out having fun. Sweet visitors. I had a nice long chat with Jeanette about how things were going. She’s changed things up so now visitors can’t come into the pen and feed the goats, they can feed them over the fence. And then go into the pen when the feeding is done. So the goats don’t get too riled up and pushy. I brought my water spray bottle today and started trying to teach Luna not to headbutt. She got a fair few shots to the face. I feel so bad about doing it. But hopefully she will learn a lesson. We’ll have to see. She didn’t seem to get mad at me at least. Still giving me smooches. She’s a doll. Just a doll that gets a little too pushy whe she wants food.
Had a pretty good back day today. I hope to have more like that.

I know most of you here follow Danish soccerballsports closely, but for the few that don’t I just wanted to mention something really sweet that happened yesterday. The team I support, Brøndby, has a Japanese player that came to the club fairly recently. Yesterday his family came to Denmark to watch him play. And he was brilliant and stole the show, man of the match with three goals. I was watching the game on the telly and every time he scored the cameras would cut to his dad in the stands being super proud. And apparently they brought gifts for the Brøndby staff, like sake glasses and kimonos. Haha. So wholesome. Now the fans really want the family to get season tickets and come to every game.

I brought pumpkin seeds for the goats yesterday. As you may recall I have been trying to find a good surface to put them on for some fun video recording. I tried this spool yesterday. One side of it was pretty clean, and the goats did want to eat from it. It has a bunch of rides which make sort of little compartments that they had to get the seeds out of. That was pretty fun. I’m not sure it makes for the best video though, since it’s fairly small and rickety. The plain platform surface at the old playground made for some great slurping videos. We’ll see how people like the video of this when it goes up. But the goaties enjoyed the pumpkin seeds. Sky does not want to share them, she loves ’em.

Hey hey! Thank you so much Deborah Ladd for this wonderful card! Sweet memories and sweethearts. And the plastic cow! I forgot about the plastic cow. I wonder where she is now. My memory is so bad, i don’t even remember what happened to her or if she just disappeared one day. But seeing her again made me smile. Along with the other darlings. Thank you!

Good goat times today. A beautiful day. Still a bit cold, but over 5C/41F. That’s a good start. And some lovely sunshine. I got to sit with the goats in the sun, for the first time really since last year. I loved when they get tired in the sun. As it was last year, Bella was the first to curl up with her head to her body and doze off. Luna sitting down several times up against me. Resting with her head on my leg and body. Eyes starting to flutter as she dozes off too. Sky had some sits on her favourite perch, the tub, too. I missed that. Hope we get more and more sun.
We had some sweet human visitors too, regulat Thursday visitors from the school next door. There’s a lady with them who’s always very sweet and nice to me. Jeanette was bringing snacks so they could feed the goats, and the lady looked over at me sitting on the bench with Bella and Luna resting, and she went “it’s almost a shame to disturb that harmony”. And then she went on “No, Jeanette, let them be, don’t disturb them”. That was so sweet of her. It was a mooh point of course, as Bella noticed that there were visitors and they know that means snacks, so they both got up and went over to the fence. And that’s good, i want visitors to have a good time with the goats. And they did. And then the goats came back and sat with me.
A pretty big development at the playground too, but I will reveal that with photo later. CLIFF! hanger.

Jesper was hard at work while the goats had breakfast.
We got a new hatch for the goats. It’s a project that Jeanette has wanted to do for a long time. Inside there’s a sort of pulley thing that can slide down and cover the opening. But I think the idea is that the goats will be able to go in and out even when the place is closed. I worry a little about if they will be safe, but it will be nice for them to have more freedom and still be able to go inside if they need. This is what it is now anyway.

Had an okay back day today. I don’t want to jinx it, every time I say it’s getting better it gets worse again. But.. it’s been better this week. The TENS and the different exercises seem to be doing me good, for now. I didn’t wear the TENS out today, but I did have a session before going out and one right when I get home. Normally when I get home I’m wrecked and it takes days to get back to feeling okay. But it wasn’t too bad today. I felt good enough to jump on the bike and do an hour, so that and the goating gave me a good workout. Doing my best.

Hey hey! Thank you so much Keiko Murakami for yet another wonderful art piece and birthday wishes, and lovely message included. And the boba bunny, whatever that is! Haha. Love the birthday party with my three little ladies. Love Sky with the bazooka, which is the word that first came to me. What’s it called? Kazoo? Now I’m imagining goats with bazookas, that could be a game. Goat bazooka simulator. Anyway, sorry about the rambling. Haven’t been feeling too well today, but this put a great big smile on my face. Thank you!

For the premium subscribers, a little highlight of an upcoming video. Fun with Luna. She cracked me up, sounding like a little buck. I’m not sure why she reacted like that to my hand, she’s done that before. I wonder if her little bad habit of headbutting has something to do with it. She’s pretty darn cute in any case.

My mind is a haunted house, with boarded up doors to keep me out of the places where I dare not tread. There’s something chained up in the basement, and there are bats in the attic. There’s a clown in the mirror and there’s a creepy doll that always follows me.

Slept for about 11 hours, just counting down the hours until I can go to bed again. This feels like a day to tear out of the calendar. I just want to dream away.
On a brighter note, I’ve had good cucumbers this week. This pleases me. The tomatoes are still not up to standard, but I hope they will get better soon. I enjoy eating cucumbers and tomatoes, during the warmer months. The goats love tomatoes all year round, but I’m more picky. Maybe I should pick them myself.

Good goat times today. Mostly overcast, blisteringly cold wind. Looks like we may get some warmer days soon, though. That would be nice. God fun with the goats. Jeanette had meetings so I only got to see her very briefly. That meant I had play host when we got visitors. The little rocket boy Khalil stopped by with his teacher. He’s so full of energy, running around. They got to feed the goats over the fence, and then came into the pen and spent some time with them. So that was a bunch of fun.
We got a little Luna problem, though. She’s getting a little pushy with people. She’s started headbutting. Not rearing up in full attack mode, but she’ll push with her head. She does it to me too, if she thinks she’s supposed to get food and I’m too slow. Also sometimes when walking next to me, which can be a problem when i’m walking down the hill and can’t see her because of my limited vision. She’s almost made me trip a couple of times. I think I was supposed to talk with Jeanette about it today, bur she had her meetings, so she haid we’ll do it next ime. But yes, it’s not good. She’s a lil thing, but it can still scare the kids. I think I’m going to try bringing the water bottle and seeing if I can discipline her out of it. We don’t want there to be trouble.

Got the eye doc visit done today. As I had figured, my eyesight has gotten a little worse. But after examining my eye, the doc said that everything was still looking peaceful and stable. So that’s good. I think the deterioration is probably due to outside factor. I can feel my vision being worse if I haven’t slept well etc. And I have not been feeling great for a long time, lots of pain and depression and poor sleep and worrying. So I think that’s the reason. And that’s not great, but at least the eye is stable. So that’s good.
When I got home I jumped on the exercise bike and did an hour. I’ve been exercising and eating somewhat better, at least cutting out the candy. Finally my blood sugar levels seem to be falling. For a long time they have been on the high side. Maybe that has been affecting my vision too. But the last couple of weeks I have started seeing better levels, so that’s good. Dropped a couple of pounds too.
My stomach is still not doing well though. Not functioning much. I got a Pepsid delivery coming tomorrow, and I added several things to my order, stuff that you all recommended to me in your comments. Thank you for that. If I don’t see an improvement there soon then I’ll have to see the doctor grrmbleth.
One day a day.

Got my Pepsi delivery today. Along with some assorted goods plus some remedies suggested by you good folks to help my tummy. Fortunately right now it seems like my tummy is actually working again, so I might not need those remedies after all. But better safe than sorry. i hope the tummy keeps working because it wasn’t a fun week and a half. Hooves crossed that it’s all done with now.

Happy Pie day everyone. All us clowns deserve a pie to the face today.
Feeling quite depressed. But hey hey, one day a day. Got on the bike and did an hour fiteen. Not too bad. Dug out my TENS device, the electric shoker. So i’m going to electrocute myself. Well, my back. I haven’t used it in many months, i’m not sure it ever really helped my back but the massage it gave did feel good. So I’ll try it again.
My stomach seems to be working, so that’s good. Hopefully. Tomorrow is the big day. That’s right, leftover pie day. Mm.

In other news, I’ve been rewatching The Office the last couple of days. It’s almost up there with Fawlty Towers, I enjoy it every time I watch it. And the last episode always gets me. That moment when Brent tells Finch to fuck off, every time it makes me want to high five him. Aw bless. And then Dawn comes back and the music, and every time I get crying. Big ole softie.
Takes me right back to the days of buying tv shows on dvd from amazon. The years.. so many years. You can’t go back. KATE WE HA VE TO GHO BACK
I better stop writing now or there will follow 16 paragraphs of nostalgia and regret and longing. Not Lasse’s goat.

Thank you everyone for all the birthday wishes. I hope I managed to respond to everyone. I really appreciate all you do for me. As someone who very easily goes to thinking bad things of myself, it is good to hear good things. When the voices in your head always say “you’re worthless and you suck” then it’s invaluable to hear real voices saying the opposite. I am thankful for knowing so many lovely people on here, I am thankful for having been able to hopefully contribute some good goat times, or whatever else, in your life and that it makes you want to be something positive in mine. The last year or two have been difficult, and there are difficult times ahead still. Thanks for holding me on.

Once again, thank you everyone for the birthday wishes yesterday. I truly appreciate it.
I spent the day relaxing, enjoying the messages. A quick visit from dad too. My parents had offered to take me out to eat, but I poitely declined. Even when I’m feeling my best it’s challenging for me to be out among humans. And right now, we’ll I’m not exactly feeling my best. Pizza leftovers and facebook, I know i’m such a party animal. The viking legacy cannot be denied.
Got up and jumped on the bike today for an hour twenty. Good going. Started using my TENS electrical device again too. Really enjoying. I don’t know if regular use will help my back so I can get out and be more pain free, but when i’m actually using it, it feels really good. Those massaging shocks. So good. I’m considering trying to wear it when I’m going out, not sure if that will really work or be helpful. Any of you have TENS experience and tried wearing it while out and about? Maybe I’ll give it a go. Just too bad it can’t give me a happy ending to the message.
SORRY.
Other than that, well one day a day. One year after the other, one foot in front of the other. Rubber bands expand with a frustrating sigh. Keep on trucking. Finished Stephen King’s The Dead Zone today. I am a hundred percent sure others have remarked upon it, but reading about Greg Stillson and his yellow construction helmets, it’s hard not to think of well let’s not talk politics.
Everything’s fine. Skynet or the aliens will sort it all out. Thereby hangs a tail.
