Jody, limping; and mysterious handwriting on a window
My daughter asked just how bad Jody's limp really is; I told her it's better some days, worse others, but she is never going to get better. We simply keep hoping against hope that she can get around until mid-February, when her calf is due. I took a short video to let everybody see the extent of her problem. It's poor quality, since I took it from inside the house at a distance, but I think you will be able to see the problem. She can't run to save her life. I know this because when the horses act out a little and try to make the cows get out of their space, the others trot or run, while Jody simply limps away. If you enlarge it to full-screen it may be more easily seen.
Hmmm. I see letters on this video, as though someone wrote something on my window. I can't make out the word, though. Hmmm.
Update: Friend David Remley says the word looks like "closed". I am so relieved one of my grandchildren or Cliff's sister or brother-in-law did not put an obscenity on my window! (Not that any of them would... I hope not anyway.) Funny thing, I went in there to try and see the word and you can't see anything on the window at all. But I did the video when the sun was coming up in the east, and this is an east-facing window. Maybe that's why it showed up.
Wait just a minute, there's a letter "A" there. There is no "A" in closed! The mystery deepens.
The writing says "CLOSED".... I think.
ReplyDeleteWere you wearing a shirt with a logo on it? The writing looked backwards. That might explain it.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a 0DAHO to me. lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm seeing "Colorado."
ReplyDeleteNow I don't know a thing about cows but is it possible that she may have something in her foot?
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Colorado too. Sheila
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the calf is pressing on something that is making her limp. The reason I wonder that is that when I was pregnant with Andrew, for about two weeks in my third trimester I got a little hitch in my getalong. It worked itself out, but I think it was how I was carrying him at the time. Anyway, I hope she can hold on until the calf is born.
ReplyDeleteClever answers, but I already read the solution above. :) Poor Jody. I hope she can keep going too.
ReplyDeletePoor Jody -- she does look pretty uncomfortable. MGW
