A New year...New goals

Well, here we are with another year to look ahead to. I have set some goals for myself, not resolutions. Goals-because with a goal it sounds like something I should always be working on. Someof them are: Food storage organized and planned out, genelology, learning more and trying more urban homesteading, and keeping up more with this blog. Since my last post our doe "Baby-lon" had a kit of 8 babies on Dec 14th. She did well with them for a few days and after loosing afew, neglected the rest, so we have been bottle feeding them, we had four, but are down to only 2. They seem to be doing well. Our other doe "Red-emption" had a kit of 6 babies on the 19th of Dec but lost all hers, i discovered today the poor thing has developed mastitis, so we have to treat her and hope for the best. It is continually a learning adventure, hopefully we will get the hang of all the work involved. Our chickens contunie to grow and are fun to watch, we will be trading some older hens for new babies in the spring, to keep a good rotation. Kids are doing well and we are plugging away at school work. So here's to all our friends and family, hope you all have a Happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year!
