Toby Keith

Okay...This post has nothing to do with Toby Keith other than I feel like that song he sings..."I ain't as good as I once was, but I am good once as I ever was".

I didn't think I had any muscles to get sore after all of the cleaning and riding and hoof trimming I have been doing. I was wrong. Heres to sore butt muscles and the damage those little hooves on the calves can do. And I wasn't even kicked. These are just from flipping the calves...


Today, a half a day of subbing. I have to remember to suck it up and not let those boys know how sore I am...
Then another branding. Four Hundred and fifty head this afternoon.
Oh please god...don't let this bunch be as big as the last bunch...

Poor girl! Hope tomorrow is a little less, ah, colorful. At least the sore muscles let us know we're accomplishing things, but flipping calves sounds like quite the work-out plan.

all I can say is, glad it ain't me. It looks like fun, and it is, but it is also Work with the capital W.
