Christmas wishes do come true

[regolith]

This is the story of a house where Christmas doesn't happen (this year) and a person who thinks nice things at Christmas are lovely to dream about and not expect...

Who spent a few seconds several times in December acknowledging Christmas with the thought all I want for Christmas is socks that don't fall down in my boots and a stomach big enough to hold my jeans up

Until December 25th, leaving the house with that disgruntled thought that in a few steps said socks would be bunched in the toes of the boots and, "I am *not* going to start taping them to my legs every time I leave the house, so stop fussing!" suddenly realised that hidden in some dim corner somewhere was a pile of velcro straps that the vets hand out with mastitis treatments to put on the legs of a treated cow.
They work fantastic :banana: :banana:
Then along came the first post after Christmas, and the mailbox didn't have the awaited soil test results... but it did contain a 1 kg bar of chocolate all the way from Scotland.


Lots of other bright little things happened too.

I have two thoughts for ya.....

The first is a bigger stomach won't help with holding those pants up, in fact without ample azz it will only push them down further. The second is Browning sox, they are the greatest sox ever invented. I'm sure you Gould buy some online and have them shipped to your house. I will personally guarantee they won't bunch! I won't wear anything else. And when I say Browning I mean the gun company.

Id consider it a Christmas miracle if i could find my clothes in a drawer or hung up instead of in a basket of clean clothes thats been there for a week. Or to find that one of the kids actually turned a light off or put the cap back on a bottle they opened. Ahhh simple pleasures

got the ample azz genetics already, just need a higher level of nutrition to express them while milking 2x daily. Less frequent milking might help toward that goal.

A set of braces Reg, then you can keep your nice flat belly and cute little azz.

I got the sock thing cured... Try Cabelas ultimax. :nod: Expensive but when you spend half your life in waders they're well worth it.
If it makes you feel any better, we ran out of coffee on Christmas eve so I got to go out (at 1 am) with no coffee. The flush went down on half of my big herd so I got to walk two thousand head in four inches of $hit and the milkers were pissed that they were working on Christmas so they treated the cows like crap and I got kicked every fifteen minutes. The flush finally kicked on when I was in my last pen at that stop and sent ten inches of $hitwater running under 1600 hooves at the same time that I was breeding twenty something of them. I spent the rest of the morning cold and wet soaked with $hitwater from the waist down. Amazingly enough, I took it in stride and made a happy afternoon for the kids in my stinky pants since my wife didn't have any spare clothes washed.
Just another day in paradise. :clap:

Now thats s great day CP!

 

[regolith]

wow cp.

what hillsdown might call the patience of a saint
I don't get that thing with treating cows like crap. It's much more fun when you're nice to them.
Huh - at least you don't have to worry about not having a bra to wear for two days because you got soaked to the skin twice in pouring rain... on the same day as you'd washed every other item of clothing you had and hung it on the washing line in bright sunshine before the storm hit.

Though according to the internet bra-less is just as good...

What's this about Angus Cowman?

 

[kenny thomas]

Oh, we been trying to get pics of something dumb he done riding a horse. He wont talk about it. :lol2: :lol2:

 

[cow pollinater]

I'd go ahead and wear a wet bra for two days if it meant I could have enough rain to soak me.

Almost all general labor like milking here is done by illegal(and a handfull of legals) immigrants. Some of them are really top notch cowmen that wouldn't dream of doing anything to harm a cow and really do love what they do... the rest shouldn't even be alowed within fifty yards of a cow but you don't know who's who until you try them out. Some of the guys that are just ignorant will figure it out but alot of them are just flat mean.

I have the sock problem too. I found that if I fold the tops down to the top of my ankles like Bobbie socks, they stay in place (most of the time).

 

[hillsdown]

I fold mine over as well, if they are not footsies . In winter I sometimes tuck my pant legs in my wool socks before I put my snow boots on.
