I am sure by this time you have your pump in. So sorry about the calf, that is still to me one of the hardest things to do. Putting any animal down is hard and I do wish I was tougher. Your sister in law and brother looks like wonderful people. It must run in your family. :) <br />I hope this week is much better though I hear it is cold. <br />Thanks for stopping by my blog this morning too.

I can remember having to haul water a few times and it was tiring and I did not like it all. You still just amaze me sweet Julia at your energy and all you accomplish. What a great sister-in-law. Work is a lot more fun when you have someone like that to help and share with. Happy for you that you had a nice visit with her and your brother. Hope the pump got fixed quickly and no more water hauling. I couldn't help but giggle about the vets coverall although I felt bad for doing so. : ) So sorry about your little bull calf.
