[@galady8632]

I am grateful Brooke opted to be as gracious with herself as she is wit others. Brooke and Jason have pushed themselves hard to install all the T-posts. That was a huge challenge! Trying to power through fencing for the goats would have been difficult. Your bodies definitely deserve more rest and a decent break. This is your forever home. You will miss one season of milking your sweet goats but you will maintain your health and well-being. Plus your babies will be acclimated to their new home so adjusting to a milking station will be easier for everyone. DeeDee will be safe, definitely loved and can enjoy her 'golden years' in comfort and style. Could any of us ask for more than that? Methinks not!

[@dianalyman5950]

Absolutely 💯

As it may not be suitable to milk your goats at this time, it will give you more time to complete the projects that you guys have been working so hard to complete. In no time at all you will be milking away and accomplish all that you have dreamed about doing. DeeDee is fitting right in with all the animals on the farm. I admire you for taking in and rescuing all those stray animals and giving them a forever home.❤

Dental Assistant here...Brooke, get a tube of Sensodyne and only use that paste for a month or til gone. Your cold sensitivity should be gone or much better. Hope this helps

[@castledykesfarm3396]

I used Sensodyne for about 55 years but it no longer works for me. However, Tom’s of Maine make a Sensitive that I used for a while but then they came out with Rapid Relief Sensitive and it has worked really well - and fast as it says - for me for a few years now.

[@joanmarlatt2722]

I’m so happy you stuck with DeeDee for her name. It was meant to be. 😁 I’m glad you’re not beating yourself up with no goat milking this year. You are so right. It’ll give you that much more time to prepare. Next year will roll around faster than you think! Great video!! Great job editing, Jason!

Hi Brook, wonderful episode. Maybe if the trays were left in the freezer too get cold before you laid out the ice cream cubes it would minimize the melting. Also get the trays in the freezer as you set up the next one. DeDe is such a sweetheart and she makes such a great addition. The eggs look great and the egg production is heading in the right direction all the Ladies must be happy and Cheese is doing a wonderful job. 😊✨👩✨👍👍👍

Brooke I knew the ice cream sandwiches were gonna be good because they sent freeze dried ice cream up in the space shuttle for the astronauts to enjoy!! I’m sorry it isn’t working out for you to be able ya start using your milking room to milk the goats , but it gives you time to start training the goats to get up on the milking stand and have their head locked in place and have their back legs tied so they can’t kick or jump down , and it gives you time to learn all the steps to milking and process the milk for freezing , making cheese and butter ! And the sterilizing process involved if your not already ! It will all work out in Gods timeline and you’ll find it was suppose to go that way for the best outcome for all concerned !! Y’all are very busy and doing all you can and I think y’all have done a great job and come a very long way and I’m so happy for y’all that once the fencing is done , most of your major projects around the farm will be completed, there will always be projects but all y’all have gotten done in the past 1 1/2 years is amazing and beautiful !!
