Help!!!!

I'm in trouble now!!! I am officially an hour and a half late milking my goats! I just glanced out the window, they are lined up at the gate and I think they all have machettes hidden behind their ears! I think maybe I should get into LaManchas!

... just thought you needed a smile for the day!

Don't ya know they keep knives and all that good stuff in their udder pouch. I have been told it is like a fanny pack. I have yet to figure out how to open it... they must have a secret code or a button I can't see.

I don't think my alpines get angry when I'm late milking... I see them being worry warts...

"What happened to her? What if she DIED? WHO WILL FEED US? WE WILL STARVE! OUR UDDERS WILL POP!" (I imagine them getting more worried and carried away as their feeble thoughts continue...)

Everytime I'm late or off schedule, all the girls that are affectionate MUST come over and smell me, tell me how worried they were... for a couple secs then head back to the hay bale.

Well, if they thought that being 1.5 hrs late was bad, well, my poor Saanens.... They have a show in the morning, so I barely milked anything out.... It was funny because they kept licking me and talking to me trying to convince me to take more, more more...
