Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 09 April 2013

During my lunch with Thynes I shared one of the issues we have at the farm and some confusion it's causing between hubby and I. She says I need to share this so all you lovely people can decide whose more insane. Me or Hubby.

Our farm butts up again some swamp land and we're getting that land fenced in for pastures since we're losing some of the other land. Hubby says it's great because we can save some money by not fencing in one side. But... I keep picturing all the cows wading into the swamp then going down the stream like big ol cow bobber. They're big round girls.. they're going to float down stream and we'll never see them again! Hubby just said.. they won't go in the swamp.. sighed.. and said he had to go because the guy giving the fence estimate was giving him funny looks. Thynes doesn't think they're going to go in the swamp because they can't swim. But why not? Seriously? If I'm a cow stuck in a field and I can go for a lil swim I'm going to make a break for it. Break out the snorkle here I go!

Oh and Thynes.. I texted the guy that helps hubby milk on Fridays and he says cows can float. I had to ask someone.. hubby won't answer my calls now. Although... the helper guy isn't answering after I told him my cow bobber theory either. EDIT: The guy says they will come back when they get to the end of the creek. EDIT: He wants to know what bar I'm at.

In case you're wondering... I've only been a dairy farmers wife for 3 years now. Things like this just don't come up every day. :)

I want some wine ice cream now. They had wine floats at the state fair that I couldn't get enough of. Yummy! I need to get this weight loss in gear before the gain at the fair!!

They even make whipped cream with alcohol in it, and it's strong. What will they think of next?

I've seen the whipped cream... and DFW we got talking right before the fair last year. This year will be fun! I'm hoping there will be a good concert since most of the acts I want to see are doing SPAC and Darien lake ... boooo!

LOL! Nice too meet you on today's journal. Thanks for the request. You guys are hillarious. I want to go to your bar too. I understand your concern... my dad drove a semi filled with cows from Idaho once, Idk if he was joking but I remember him saying he had to hurry or some cows get lazy, lay down, and get squished to death. So I also understand your half a brain comment. lol hm... Put the fence up if you can afford it and it will look nice...if not leave it open and if and when -tell your hub, 'told you so now go get 'em!!'
