It’s been a pretty uneventful week. Nothing out of the ordinary happening. Some cold days but some fairly milder ones with sunshine too. I’m still trying to properly calibrate my winter attire to reach the appropriate level of warmth when I’m out with the goats. It annoys me having to wear all the extra layers and gloves and socks and all that micromanagement. At least I don’t need the thermal underwear yet. Heading into December now. The weather forecast said something about snow at the end of next week. Not sure how much it will be. I’m looking forward to seeing Palle in the snow. But even more I’m looking forward to next summer. Yes please.

Good and fun times with the goats in general. I did a little calculating and I think IF Mio is pregnant then the babies will come in late January at the latest. That would be the timetable. But of course it all depends on when Medium was ready to “deliver”. I’m guessing it’ll be some time in January. I’m still not a hundred percent sure, though. I had a feel on her tummy and I did think that I could feel babies in there, but I’ve never been good at feeling for babies. So. I don’t know. But I would be surprised if there was nothing. Big mommy!

I think that’s all for now. Let’s go pictures.

The goats got a chunk of tree inside to play around on and with. Here’s Palle and Mia standing on it.

Mio in the sun.

Palle with that lovely look on his face.

Mia debarking.

Nina brought in a wheelbarrow with hay for the goats. It was supposed to go in the hayholders, but the goats didn’t want to wait for that. So she ended up just leaving the wheelbarrow in the pen so the goats could help themselves. And of course it didn’t take long before Mia had jumped onto it.

Mia and Mio on the tree chunk. I’m really glad they put that inside for the goats to play around with and on. Lots of competing for the space. Mia and Palle even butt heads. I’m not quite sure if it’s purely playing around or if Mia is starting to feel she has to show him who’s the boss because he’s getting bigger and bolder. They’re having fun in any case.

Kamel with the folded ears.

Mia enjoying a bit of sun too.

And a goatlog. With wheelbarrow fun and tree chunk playing and footrubs for Kamel and more.

And that’s all for this week, folks. See you in the next one.

PS. Oh yes, hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. We don’t celebrate it of course. But I AM thankful for the goats, the humans, the tomatoes, the sunshine and everything I have. Every day.
