For the last few weeks

I have been scheduled down to 4 day weeks, in fact everyone but management and Sales is in 4 day weeks. Which is ok, considering unemployment will pay me a 3/4 of what I would have regularly made if I had worked that day. I have no paper work to fill out, they just send me a debit card with some money on it to use.

Somehow the work gods were smiling on me a little bit because my mandatory day off are Friday's. Gotta love three day weekends and while I get to play around the farm (considering I'm still lambing) my company is paying for my unemployment benefits.

I know this is going to get old fast, but the dip in my check wasn't has bad as I thought and I'm gonna survive just fine.

sell lambing weekends. Tents not included. Surely some city types would like that?
(I certainly would!)

  That would be good if I only had more sheep. There is a guy in Oregon who does that, but he has ~1500 sheep. So it's easy for him.

    you could do it! okay so timing the lambing is tricky, but still... you could have a disclaimer

        besides, frolicking young lambs are just as viewable as fresh from the womb lambs... without the mess!
