Go ahead. Morning guys. Welcome to
today. Today is Saturday and I have had
an eventful day. So we went outside we
went out today to do all our shopping
and I wanted to show you a haul of what
I got. Okay. And I only just want to
show you one thing and I'm super excited
about it. I told you guys yesterday that
I started reading my Bible and suddenly
for some reason it started clicking with
me and I started like falling in love
with it. Like I even has been I have
even been asking God to clarify things
in my life that I have questions about.
Where's that Bible? And then I read the
Bible and then suddenly
I have clarity. It's like the craziest
thing. Let me show you my Bible. Okay,
so this is my Bible. I have a few other
Bibles, but this is the biggest Bible
that I have. And I really am addicted to
it. I love the color. I love all that.
And I love that it's got these
string bookmarks.
And but this is what it looks like
inside. So, if you guys are over the age
of probably 35 or 40, you guys know you
can't see this stuff. So, I've been
taking off my glasses and putting my
nose right up to the Bible to read it. I
like that it has space so that you can
write in it, but it's a really cute
Bible and I love it, but it's really
hard for me to read. It's really easy
for me to hold and like I said, I love
these things. So, anyways, now that I'm
into my Bible, like into it, I started
looking for my dream Bible. So, this
whole last week, so I've been reading
the Bible for like a couple of weeks
now. So, this last week though, I've
been looking up Bibles. I told Sam, "I
want a new Bible and I've been trying to
look up my dream Bible, what I want."
And he said, "Okay, I'm going to buy you
one." So, he was going to order me a
Bible and he's been looking at Bibles to
see which ones that he's going to buy
me. So, I was looking them up and I saw
and I saw so my dream Bible from
researching Bibles is a giant and this
is what was in my heart was in my heart.
I wanted a big giant f like I knew I
wanted a family Bible. A Bible that you
can write all your information in. They
my grandparents had family bibles. They
were big and brown and they kept kept
record of all your family, the kids that
were born, your marriage, like
everything. So, I knew I wanted it. I
knew I wanted a white one because I saw
white ones on Amazon.
And my friend taught me that
my friend taught me about some important
features that you want in your Bible.
And so, I wanted all those features. I'm
going to show you guys. So, I went we
went shopping today and I decided to
stop by this one second this one thrift
store. All their Bibles are free there.
And I was going to keep going to any
thrift store because we don't really
have a Bible store that you can buy
Bibles at where we live. So I was going
to keep going to every thrift store in
like a huge area today to find a Bible.
I was getting ready to settle for any
Bible that I could find. And let me show
you what I found. So literally the very
first store that I went into had this
Bible.
Isn't it like it's exactly the Bible
that I saw on Amazon that I wanted. This
was like the dream Bible that I wanted.
It's It's not bad. It's a little bit
dirty. It's in excellent condition. See
that? This side a tiny bit dirty. I'm
going to wash it, but And it was free
because this store that I went to, it
makes all the Bibles free. Inside, it
has all the family information. It has
your um marriage certificates. I can
copy down mine and Sam's marriage
certificate information. It has our
genealogy, husband and wife. It has your
children's records in it.
It also has a concordance. So, that's
one of the features that my friend I
didn't even know what that was. My
friend told me that when you're like
reading your Bible, a concordance is
like it's like um it's like a reference.
So, if you want to look up thing uh
Bible verses or Bible things that are
about the about the word bitter and you
want to learn more about being bitter,
then these are all the Bible pages that
you should look up that talk
specifically about each thing. And
that's like such a good study guide for
a Bible. And there's it goes so long.
Like it's a huge it's huge. Anyways, you
guys are probably not interested, but
it's just crazy to me that I walked into
one store today and found my dream
Bible. It's big. The letters are big, so
I can read it. I don't have to take off
my glasses and stare at it. It's got
it's got pictures in here. And the other
feature that my friend talked about that
she said that I'm going to want are that
Jesus's words are written in red. So,
all this red in this Bible are things
that Jesus specifically
said. Isn't that so cool? Like, I am so
obsessed. I have been obsessed with
reading this Bible. Like, I I when I'm
not reading it, I I feel like, "Oh, I
can't wait to get back to it." And I've
never been like that before in my entire
life. It's just never clicked. So, I
know God wants me to read the Bible now.
So, the only thing that this Bible does
not have that I wish it did is these
things. So, I'm going to order some
magnetic bookmarks. But I really like
these. I like I just I like how it
feels. I like everything about these
little strings. I might see if I can
figure out a way to make some and put it
in this big Bible. It's huge. It's not
going to be something I can carry around
with me in my purse, but it's a family
Bible. It was free and God led me to it
today. It's just crazy to me how like
you only need to just say what you want
and leave it with God and then he will
lead you to it. If if it's meant for
you, he will just lead you to it. But
anyways, it's happened to me so many
times in my life and it's just
overwhelming and I'm excited to delve
into my Bible. And now that it's been
warm out, these bugs, oh my gosh, Sam
Sam needs to come out here and spray
these. They have taken over. They've
hardly been bad this whole summer, but
it's wet and warm right now. Kind of
dark and gloomy today and not so so hot.
And my whole family is watching The
Samurai Turn Pretty from the start
again. I haven't watched season 3. I'm
excited to watch it. I don't even know
if I watch season 2 to be honest because
it's hard for me to just sit there and
watching it in the daytime and I never
watch TV in the daytime. All right,
who's in heat?
She's already been bred, so we're not
breeding her again. Oh, is Cricket in
heat?
I might put somebody with cricket.
Huh?
Oh my gosh, you guys. You're not going
to believe what happened last night. See
that little chicken? Okay, so you guys
don't know, but last night we came down
to do chores. Oh, she is totally in
heat. in like an insane heat. So, last
night I came down, we came down to do
chores, Sophie and I, and it was a
little bit later because we had friends
stop by a little bit later than I
thought it was going to be and it was
starting to get dark. Just starting to
get dark. Usually, we come down before
dark. So, it was starting to get dark
and we came down and we put everybody to
bed and
poor little Mia the chicken. Our goat
chicken Mia was missing. And let me tell
you, I was so upset about it. Sophie was
so upset about it. I think Sophie had
tears in her eyes. Like,
we lost some chickens this year to
predators and that was really hard on
us. We lost some ducks to predators.
Like, it I got to the point where I was
terrified to go into the coupe in the
morning to let them out because I was so
afraid. Like, I just I can't see that
stuff. Like, it's just so hard on you.
Any loss is so hard. When you have farm
animals, there's going to be losses,
especially things like chickens. So
yesterday we were out there and we were
making fun of her and I said right in
front of her, this is her last weekend
in the go area. She has to move up to
the chicken coop. Um,
we went down last night and she was
missing. Totally missing. I was freaking
out. Sophie was freaking out. And then
Sam said, "Don't freak out."
Well, that was a dumb choice. A bee
landed on through the camera. Don't let
Sam see that. Whoops. My gosh. I threw
my gosh. Yep. Because there was a be.
Anyways, back to my story. We were so
upset and Sam said, "Don't freak out."
Famous last words. And he said they hide
at night and but if she goes inside, and
she has gone inside before, she hides in
like a a feeder, one of the hay feeders,
and she buries herself in there. And we
looked in every single hay feeder. Poor
camera.
So, um, she was missing and she was gone
and Sophie and I wrote her off as dead
and it was awful. Like so awful. And Sam
said she'll be there in the morning and
I came down this morning and she was in
the boys stall and she was looking for
her breakfast. She even designated one
of the feeders in there for herself. So
yeah, she's okay. So let that be a
lesson to you. Don't freak out first.
Wait, wait, and be patient. All right,
Ellie, I got stuff to do. I'm going to
show you what I'm going to do. So, he's
watching that show.
I really need her down here, but I don't
want to go back up there and get her
because I'm going to put some goats
together. That's the strongest heat I've
ever seen cricket go in. I think I'm
actually going to get Sophie. I'm going
to go up to the house and get Sophie.
I'm so worried about my camera now
because sometimes when you throw it, it
breaks.
Oh, I just saw him blink, you guys. He's
laying there with his eyeballs open.
I thought he was dead.
He's not dead.
Oh my gosh.
This has been a bad season.
So, before I go down and get Sophie, I'm
going to try and clean out this stall
cuz we can't even open the door right
now to get in here.
I swear I thought
I for sure thought that that do that
that goat was dead or that pig was dead.
This is literally my favorite stall to
clean. And it's the first one I do every
year because basically you just
rake all of it outside, every single bit
of it, and then you just scoop it up
outside. And I don't know why it's
easier, but it is way easier. The other
thing that I need to do is get this hose
and put it away in the barn for the
season. So sad. I've actually never seen
this goat go into heat. Like not really
go into heat. Come on.
Let's see.
She's Oh, she's in heat. She's in
standing heat, I think.
Come on, little man. It'll be your first
time. I have a friend that has like all
her bucks this year are babies at like
his age and we're worried.
Actually, she got a new buck. Come on.
We should have gave him the little
I know.
Yep. She's for sure in heat.
>> Can I go up now?
>> Uh can you wait with me just for a
minute? Because if she gets bred, I'm
going to take her back out.
See, she she's in heat. So, I guess I'm
not calling the vet on Monday.
There's a whole lineup. Pick our
choices. We can't use him because she's
pulled and he's pulled. So,
>> that's going to suck because he runs in
as soon as he can.
>> Yeah. So, I don't think that it's going
to work with him yet. I think he's still
See, she's loving him.
He's still a baby. That sucks because I
really want his jeans. Or I at least
want to see one baby of him this year.
>> Stop peeing on your face.
>> All right. You say we switch him out.
Put Ziggy in cuz I don't think this is
going to work out.
>> Grab him.
>> All right. I'll grab him. He's easy.
He's easy. It's actually crazy how easy
it is to like switch out boys when the
goats are in heat. Like it literally
took us 5 seconds to get these guys
together. Now we got Ziggy in there and
he will tell us if it's time. I know.
>> See that we don't This is what we don't
like about him is that he like needs her
he needs her to be running around.
>> Screaming's not going to do anything.
>> I know. I can't stand it though. I hate
this.
>> Then just leave him alone. I know.
It's the most annoying thing. I feel so
bad for my beloved little girl goat.
Okay, I let her out. That was awful. So,
she's standing for him and he's just
screaming. Come on. Out. Come on. Get
out there. Get out. Get out. Everybody
out.
Oh gosh. Every time I do this, that
turns into a disaster.
Okay, so I think she's ready. She's
definitely ready. She's All the other
goats are saying she's in heat, too. So,
I'll put them back together tonight. So,
what happens is that he is awful. He
just screams hysterically, and she's
such a gentle like sweet goat. So to her
it just feels like so much aggression
even though he doesn't like hurt her but
he's so aggressive.
So
so it can mean that she's really not
ready yet. Like not quite ready a couple
hours for a goat because they're only
going to hate for 3 days mostly. But
she's in a really strong heat right now
and she's probably just coming into it.
She probably needs like another 5 6
hours or so. I will throw them together
again tonight. That was honestly awful.
Like so awful. Like he's just screaming
so loud and she's just standing there
waiting for him and he
didn't. He's an experienced buck. So I
feel like he knows better than us if
she's completely ready. And he didn't
even try and hump her once and neither
did the other little guy. So I'm just
going to wait. I'm on my second trip of
stuff from that stall. Probably take me
four or five trips.
Know that you're beautiful
just the way you are, just the way you
came. Don't you know that you're
beautiful?
