So I've been recruited to be a cowboy for the next week. My brother and parents are going on vacation for the next week, so that leaves me to look after his cows for the next week. Normally that wouldn't be much of a job except that they just started calving this week and I had surgery on my leg on Wednesday. It's going to be an interesting week.
I do have experience calving cows so it's not something totally out of my element but it is most certainly not my calling in life. Once upon a time looking after a cow herd was all I did. My dad had 300 cows and I took care of them year round. I'm not the best with cattle but I know what I'm doing and have been around them most of my life.
I'd be looking forward to the week if I wasn't limping around right now. I'm praying everything goes smoothly this week or else I might be calling for some backup. There shouldn't be too many calves so I'm hoping I can handle everything. This week is just really bad timing for me.
I will probably have some pictures of some cute calves to share with you this week. So if you like cute baby animals, I'll hook you up.
