Jinxed???

Am I jinxed?

Notice only 2 doe kids with Mama?

Big Billy kid died this morning.

So frustrated right now.

I never actually saw him hurse but holding him his belly was warm and full.

Maybe he never nursed?

I asked for S to verify last night but after being seperated last night for 5 hours he didn't wanna nurse

when forced to but when left alone and spied on he went back to bag and nosed around making sucking sounds so S "thought" he was fine.

This morning he was lethargic and laying full out barely breathing.

I am so mad at myself.

I should have done it myself and then...I don't know if it would have helped but I might feel as if I did all I could at least.

I am not fishing for alot of cheery encouraging comments here.

I f*#%ed up.

 

 

On the positive side when I went to barn this morning I did a double take when I saw these cuties...

 

I love lambs.

Ewes too as a rule just get it done.

I have only helped 2x with lambs and 1 of those times was a prolapse to be returned and the other I'm not sure was necessary to help tiny runt nurse as she went to Mom after 2 small bottles

and grew like a weed.

 

Think ewe named Valentine has any milk?

Both ram lambs are nursing and moving around , hopping around actually.

 

Seems someone just wants some attention.

Baby Bones says "please lady take my picture".

 

Gym update - still going and still sweating buckets.

Still not fun.

Still going and still necessary.

New trainer is fine and we're gelling.

I thought after 1st actual workout with her she wasn't doing enough with me intensity wise.

I found out next morning at 3 am barn check I was wrong.

My legs and glutes protested the stairs more than usual.

So it goes and I still go.
