Thank You Secret Pal in Florida

Once again my Secret Pal in Florida sent me the greatest package. She always includes a newsy note with my package, and so here is my response to it. I have a lot of pets..... We live on a small "farm" or "ranchette" here in Northeastern California. So here goes::: I have 6 cats: Noel, Boo-Boo, Raisin, Zip, Phoebe and Skittles. 3 dogs: Duke, a Border Collie/Queensland Heeler cross, and Tate and Baylea my beloved Dachshunds. I also have dairy goats, and pygmy goats: Craig, Mirage, Mystique, Maia and Mia are my Oberhasli's Sugar, Willow, Jewel, Juliet, Spice and Cosmo are my Alpines. And my Pygmies are Crystal, Torri, Candy, Melody, Honey, Thalia, Gunter, Bridget, Tabatha, Exxie, Truce, Autumn, and Millicent. Additionally my husband and I raise pigs for the 4-H and FFA kids to raise for the fair, at this time we only have 3 sows, and 2 boars, but are planning on getting 2 more sows for litters to be born in January for project animals. All in all we stay very busy.... between working 40+ hours a week and taking care of all the critters.... And I can honestly say that since losing all this weight I certainly have the stamina to keep up with all of them...
