Livin' my life on the farm

I woke up around 7:30 to make milk for the bottle lambs and checked on a ewe lamb we had in the house cause she wasn't doing good yeterday, she had really bad scours.  She had died over night, but atleast she died in her sleep. I headed out to the barn around 8am and found one of our bottle lambs dead.   We don't know what happened to him. Maybe it just got to cold(the tempature dropped from the 60s-40s to 30s - teens). While I was out there I found another ewe lamb that is lame in her back right leg. She seems to be able to get around well enough but she just drags the leg along. I grabbed her and looked at the leg. It appears to be in fine working order but the bottom hock/joint/ankle is pulled so the hoof is streched out backwards. And if you try to strech it to the natrual position it feels like well best I can discribe it is when you squeeze your hand in a tight fist for a minute or so and then really slowly open it you get that creaky feeling. That's what it feels like. We're going to keep an eye on her see if it comes back around.

Tomorrow we have special music at church service. Eekk! I'm so nervous! But our last practice went really well. We went thru it twice perfect. yay!

Tonight I'm going in to practice with some church members. We're doing a special program for the Adult class in church. It looks like it'll be nice.

Well I got to run and finish up my school before I have to leave.

You will do just fine! I've sang in church before, with my sisters, and the more I do it the easier it becomes. The part I get the most nurves at is right before I go up. Tell me how it goes!
So, yeah what do you wash you hair with if not shampoo?
