Snow snow go away

I am so sick of the cold weather!  I need to get fence built for the goats but it has been too wet.  I have been trying to figure out what boat I want to get.  Nothing is getting done outside because of the weather and nothing is getting done inside because my body hurts because the weather.

We had twins!

Things are always interesting on the barefoot farm.  A few weeks ago I picked up four goats off a friend of my sister.  When I picked them up it was obvious that one was pregnant and another a strong possible to be pregnant.  With no information about how far along they are I just had to watch for signs.  I figured that Donkey was getting close.  Checked them in the morning then in the afternoon my cousin brought his little boy out to see the animals, we got out to the barn and wow we have twin babies!  They are so cute.
Nothing else really going on.  I did way to much and my body is very mad.  One good day working outside and now I'm down three days.  I need a new body!

First post.

Ok so I'm going to give this a try.  A little bit about me.  I was born in  Parkersburg WV, graduated from Parkersburg South.  Joined the Navy two weeks after graduation. Boot camp, subschool, advanced submarine electronic school, USS ATLANTA, med hold, SIMA, them medical discharge under honorable conditions.  I was in the Navy almost seven years.  Moved back to WV, mainly because a girl I was interested in lived close and I thought I had a chance to get on at the plant. Worked as night audit for two different hotels for two years.  Finally got on to the plant.  Got married.  Worked at dupont a little over 16 years until my body could not put up with the 12 hour shifts on the concrete and the work.  Got approved for disability on St.  Patrick's day 2016. I have been married  16 years.  Wife's name is Wendy, we have no human children.  We do however have three cats,  Stella, Gizmo, and Lastat.  Three dogs, Rubi and Marli Australian Shepherds and Rowan (the baby..  Little bug) she is a Jack Russell Beagle mix.  Six goats, Mary Francis, Midge, and Rufus Scarbery are fainting goats, Thing 1,Thing 2, and Donkey are pygmy goats.  About 20 chickens.   Three  Argentine black and white tegu, Dragon, Edward (blackbeard), and Sierra.  Five boa constrictors.  Twelve ballpython.  And one armadillo lizard named Hector. I have a lot of tattoos some piercings.  Drive a lifted jeep that always has mud on it.  We live on a thirty acer farm in Barlow Ohio. Just bought a lot on Cedar Island, NC.  We love NC beaches that are not commercialized.  We love to fish, camp, And kayak.  I am restoring a 1969 Airstream Sovereign Land Yacht to put on our NC lot.
That is about my life so far in a clam shell.  In between all the above mentioned is full of crazy stories and things happening.  As you probably have figured out me spelling and grammar is bad if it bothers you you can always exit,  I don't want to hear about it. Politics and religious beliefs are  also not welcome.  I know where I stand on both and don't need to know what you think about either. Other than that I hope that this little experiment with blogging will be enjoyable for me and anyone bored enough to read it.
