Bye Bye Penelope

Posted byDinkyPosted incattleTags:, , , ,

After being sick for a week due to chasing Penelope back into the corral, I said good bye to her today. I woke up yesterday morning and saw Penelope in my front yard eating on a grass pile. She has been roaming the yard for the past week while I was sick. I had the gates closed to the street so she could not get into traffic. It is time for her to go.

I called the local hire a cowboy and he showed up this morning to help me out. It is not a bad little system. At the age of 60 I should not really be corralling cows by myself. We hopped on the four wheeler and went searching for the cows. They saw us and have learned that I usually have treats for them. They follow me back up to the corral. Cows can be pretty stupid. You just have to train them like big old dogs. We got Penelope loaded up and off she went to the great big Sale Barn. I was told that the price of cattle is through the roof right now so I should make my money back on her plus a little extra. Not bad for a few days work.

I will update everyone with the real numbers if I made anything.

Peace out.

Hello, my name is Dinky. This is a name given to me in my first marriage. It is my grandma name. A few other selected individuals address me as such. I am a onetime divorced, one-time widowed single woman trying to discover the real me. I will take you on my journey. Read if you are interested. I feel that I am a hard knock educated person. I have been a working mother, a stay-at-home wife, a Christian, a caretaker, and a retired woman. I am always seeking wisdom on how to improve as a person and hopefully I can share as I learn more. I have many interests. I enjoy cooking because I enjoy eating. I am not a great cook but am eager to try new recipes. I will share these with you. I have a degree in business management and a certification in food science. I have worked man years in the food manufacturing industry. I also have a small farm. I have some cows, a donkey, some wild horses a bull and two dogs. I would like to explore more homesteading techniques and become self-sustained. Maybe we can learn together. I encourage your input and ideas. I have spent many years learning how to make quilts. This is another hobby I would like to get back into. I am always up to learn new crafts and explore new projects. I am really big on goal setting and finding ways to make my life simpler. I will take you through some of my ideas on that progress. Lastly, but biggest on my list is that I am a Christian in continual growth mode. I will never be all that I should, and I will never judge people in regard to their own journey. I am always open for discussion on this topic. If you find my talks interesting, feel free to follow me. If I say or write anything offensive feel free to call me out. I am up for improvement and self-growth. Welcome to learning about me and helping me in my self-discovery.
