[SIZE=14pt]Time to Congratulate our Doofus of the Month of February. :aktion033: :aktion033: :aktion033: [/SIZE]
It's none other than our beloved Corrine from MeadowRidge Farm.

Seems like Corrine had one heck of a time feeding one day and she really deserves a round of applause for this barnyard blooper! :risa_suelos: :new_multi: :new_multi: :new_multi:
Corrine, pm me with your home address so I can send out your Doofus Award! :lol: Here's what she did: Enjoy!
[SIZE=12pt]It was a minus 20 or 30 degrees out. I brought EVERYONE in the barn, doubled up, so they would all stay nice and cozy. Had to clean out 2 stalls I had been using for feed, straw, hay, and the other for buckets, barn shovels, forks, etc, I moved everything out into my normally clean uncluttered aisle, well. while I was mixing the grain-beet pulp, I stepped back and tripped over a pail of already mixed grain-b.pulp, so that got spilled all over the floor, and down I went. While I was getting up, I got my foot caught into a hay rack--which obviously hadnt been put up yet! and was just about up from my first klutzy fall, and down I went a second time, and boy--not only is cement cold, but darn HARD. [/SIZE]
Got finished and headed out to our second barn. The path that Bob plowed for me with the skidsteer was now a ice path..and guess what I was carrying..YUP- a 5 gal bucket of water, a pail, about 2 1/2 gallons of grain and sloppy beet pulp, and my pooper scooper fork, and you guessed it... down I went again!!!! Water dumped all over me, and the grain mix went flying in every direction, but most of it found its way to land on me. Talk about freezing!!! I looked like a frozen chunk of ice complete with grain and beet pulp mixed in. Was I a mess, and my long hair..well..thank God we didnt have anyone over at this time! Got to love this weather and ice!
