sequencing errors

Alice In TX/MO · #1 09/11/12, 08:43 AM

This is not the correct morning sequence:

1. Shower
2. Clean clothes
3. Milk goats
4. Saanen/LaMancha cross doe sneezes and rubs her nose on my shirt, jeans, and UNDER my shirt to scratch her itch.
5. Feed bucks. One of the feeders was down, so I went in the pen to re-hang it on the fence. Tonto just LOVES me and rubs his stinky body on the OTHER side of my jeans.
6. I just realized I sat down on my computer desk chair with buck stink on my jeans.

A dab or two of Koppertox behind the ears and you're ready to go to town!

How about if you've been working sheep all day long in the middle of summer, and you have to run into town for an emergency errand?

I usually managed the shower first, though. I can shower in 3 minutes.

Add the pieces of hay and other barnyard items dragged in, and you have my life too.
I love a shower first thing in the morning, and second thing and third thing, and.........

That I why I just skip the shower and clean clothes

What were you thinking?!! <g> Put 1 and 2 after 5, and 6 goes away. ;-)

My morning sequence:

1. Bleary-eyed, get up, immediately heat milk for bottles, feed babies.
2. Milk goats.
3. Feed whatever else needs feeding, wethers, bucks, cats, chickens.....
4. Eat breakfast.
5. Brush teeth, take shower.
6. Get into clean clothes, get coffee, get on interwebbies.

When I read the title I thought it was going to be a topic about DNA. When DNA is not replicated properly, it is a sequencing error.

ME TOO! Hahah. I clicked on it saying to myself, "Ooh! DNA question!"

I kinda thought that I had made a post with my horrible grammer and she was gonna mention it in a kind and indirect way....lol

Alice In TX/MO · #12 09/11/12, 05:25 PM

ROFL. No, I just grit my teeth and go on.

I could never take a shower before going to the barn in the morning or I'd have to take another after the barn. For some reason I can never stay clean at the barn & of course someone always stops by before I can get in the shower & clean clothes.

I milk and feed in my PJ's. That's flannel pants and t-shirt. (I don't want folks mixing me up with "nudietime

)

~chuckles~ Me too, Samantha...that's why shower and clean clothes is after everything else, and P.J.'s go in the laundry.

That's what some folks around here wear to Wal-mart...

If they decide to wear that much.

I'm always seeing these girls in Walmart who somehow forget to put pants on.

Sequencing error cheat sheet.

Purchase oversized blue jump suit ( the kind old guys get one day and never seem to take off ever, I'm guessing that might be first sign of senilty).
You can put these over your clean clothes and almost always get out of the barn only slightly soiled.

Rubber pull overs for my shoes...found these really big sandal looking things that look to me like the same plastic as crocs. It also looks like Big Foot walked thru the yard afterwards.

Put towels and plastic on all your home and car seats. I'm sure Martha Stewart is not going to drop by anytime too soon.

Baby wipes ...I buy them in bulk and have them everywhere.

5 lb bag of buttermints. I use these as a distraction tactic and have found that a small pile in a feeder will cause a may-lay when I need to switch chores or escape.

Then again I usually smell like a goat when I head back to the house and forget and track goat poo on the carpet.

And after I shower again and put on clean clothes I can head to work.

Me too!!! My first thought was a new genetic disease. I was thinking - "Oh No! They found another thing that can go wrong with goats - how am I going to remember all these things!" (as a new goat owner of course!)

This whole thread is cracking me up. I used to 'wander' into the barn at all times, but since learning about the whole CL thing, I have vowed never to go into the barn in my street shoes - they might not be "SAFE"

(over-reacting I know, but once again, new goat owner)...

I don't often leave the farm so I wear my clothes for a few days, but don't you know every time I do put on clean clothes someone is bound to slime me or poop on me,whether it is a chick, kid or something else. I stay clean for minutes.
