We have some rain coming in. I know we do. The cactus flowers are all opening up. They are beautiful across our pastures. We have several different types, but all the flowers are blooming right now. A sure sign it is fixing to rain in West Texas. I have learned that in the last few years of living here. 

I did see all the cats when I got home. Athena even let me pet her. I hope she is not sick. She does not normally do that. 

I got to see more yellow headed blackbirds. I am so amazed at how pretty they are. I do like to see them. I only see them in the spring. 

The donkeys and goats surrounded me in a circle out in the pasture. I know they love me. That is pretty obvious when they all gather around wanting attention. Show others your love for them; it is an important thing to do since we all need to know we are loved. 

Cinderella is looking bloated. Ronnie went and got some meds for her. I was able to give her the bloat medicine. It was a bit of a fight, but I won that fight and got it down her. I have already wormed them, so I hope this medicine helps. She does not act like she is sick or in pain. We will see what happens. 

Daisy and Onyx can be seen often these days laying on the deck together. Who says you cannot be friends if you are different; prove those people wrong.
