All is well!

It took me an hour an a half altogether this morning with the milking! Probably less than it took me hand milking! Once again..my Abbey girl was a champ! I'm pretty sure God put her and I together...I love her! I only got a gallon again but..I suppose it will increase? It's good enough for now because I am just not ready to start making stuff with the milk yet...too tired and sore yet. A nice side benefit..losing weight!! Yippee! 4 pounds so far.
This morning I asked Al to just be there for moral support..awww..he is so sweet! :)   I only made one mistake..forgot to put the hose from the pump back onto the milker for cleaning..lol! Took me a few minutes to figure out why the needle wasn't going up on the gauge, other than that, it went off without a hitch! Abbey really seems to enjoy the milker better than my hand milking, it must be gentler than I?? lol!
The only thing that is harder about milking with the electric milker is carrying more heavier stuff up to the barn, which really isn't that bad, I am using a little red wagon that my 3 things I need fit perfectly in! Then I just carry the pail. The transition from hand milking to electric has really been quite pleasant :)!  My main concern was how Abbey would react and she is WAY better behaved now and she gets done so quick she doesn't seem like she is ready to quit eating the yummy hay and leave. I have to practically pull her out. I know I already said this but it is so cool to watch the milk go through the tube into the container..love it!
Well, tomorrow is the big day...going to find out if I will be able to go forward with getting my license. The only thing I have been a little concerned about is whether the natural HGH with 20% organic alcohol would show up on the urine they sent to the lab..two little squirts under the tongue 3 times a day. I am just praying that it is such a minute amount that it won't show up. If it did, there is no way they would believe that is what it was and honestly, I wouldn't blame them. I mean, I do have a history of alcohol abuse. God is good and he knows so I am just trusting that all is well :) !
God bless!
