Over the weekend the boys and I pushed the pencil around on what we felt we could give for feeder calves an still make anything. So this morning I worked on finding any calves that would work for us. I was busy with the land line and my cell phone at times. I bid on cattle from Virginia to North Dakota. Then on top of that the boys where calling me every 10-15 minutes to see if I had found any yet. LOL So all in all it was a very hectic morning dealing with some very serious business.
This evening the DIL asked me if I would watch my Grand sons while she goes to eat with some of her school friends that happened to be in town tonight. My son is out of town this week welding on a bridge in MN somewhere. They are going to another friend's house when she gets off work.
So I went to watch the grandsons. They where driving my DIL crazy as she was visiting with her friend before they went out. You know the drill looking at old pictures and year books an all. The Grand sons wanted to monopolize "Mom's" attention. LOL
So I grabbed up the boys and told them we where going to make "homemade" brownies. They looked at me like I was from Mars. LMAO The youngest said "Grand Pa you can't cook your a man and plus your too old" Little RUNT!!!! LOL
So we rounded up all the fixins and made a double batch of brownies. I probably broke several Health department rules. Plus I let the boys "lick" the spoon, bowl and spatula. I know they will never be right again from eating a raw egg in the batter. LOL
They are now in bed after getting a warm "homemade" brownie covered with Ice cream in a bowl along with a cool glass of WHOLE milk.
Guys I have to tell you that doing that with them just cancelled out all the stress from earlier in the day. It took me back to when I was their size and My Grand Mothers showed me how to make brownies. Yep I got to lick the mixing spoon then. Then later making them with my children while their Mother watched from her chair when she was too sick to do it with them. (Darn screen is getting blurry) LOL
I am setting here waiting on the DIL to get home. We will eat a brownie and talk about how her visit went. Then I will go home and sleep without worrying about the cattle. I know we will survive whatever happens with the calves/steers.
The important stuff finishes things off for the day!!!!

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
