yes, yes!! now i remember!!! now i remember why i have large animals!!!
i have llamas because, well, they're sweet, soft and they produce wonderful fertilizer for the flowers.
i have tuffy because, well, i've had him for almost 21 years. i can't imagine not having him.
i have rebel because, well, the minute he laid eyes on me back in october, he screamed TAKE ME HOME!!! yeah, that's why i have rebel.
i don't have large animals because i actually like getting up every morning hours before the buttcrack of dawn when normal, civilized people are still in bed with visions of sugarplums dancing in their heads.
i don't have large animals because i actually like being outside in total darkness hunting the ever-elusive horse turds and finding them firmly frozen to the ground.
i don't have large animals because i actually like throwing my back out of whack on an almost-daily basis while i throw 60 pound bales of hay off the top of the stack, all the while trying not to trip over a piece of baling wire and landing on my keester 20 feet below.
i don't have large animals because i actually like it when those-who-shall-remain-nameless call me at supper time and tell me they are only a quarter of a mile away and are on their way here to let the baby sit on rebel so they can take cutsey pictures.
i don't have large animals because i actually like fighting a losing battle with the stock tank heater on a frigid, windy january day when the pilot light REFUSES to stay lit.
i don't have large animals because i actually like having to take 30 minutes to put layer after layer after layer of clothing on just to try to stay even half-way warm this time of year.
i don't have large animals because i actually like not being able to feel the tips of my fingers for 2 hours after i come inside and spend 30 minutes removing the layer after layer after layer of clothing i put on just to try to stay warm this time of year.
okay, remind me again. why do i have large animals???
