Sometimes my life is pretty spontaneous anyway, but with homesteading, you never know what you will encounter some days.
There are times when I do have plans, but I’ve lived long enough to keep them flexible. I am not sure what my plans were supposed to be on Friday afternoon, but out of nowhere one of our STEEM-powered pigs was giving birth.
The fencing that I had up was not adequate for the situation, so I had to drop whatever it was that I was up to and switch gears. Then, on Sunday morning, I woke up and it was raining! The pigs were isolated in one section of the pen that did not have a roof. Soon, I was out in the rain trying to keep our little piggies dry. I thought that I would make a vlog about it and show off our cute piglets.
Now this is the third spontaneous bit of work that I had to do because of these little piglets.
- 1 - Midwife
- 2 - Making "piglet-proof" fencing
- 3 - Makeshift Roofing

DREAMS COMING TRUE!
As many of you already know, my dreams are coming true right now. I am really loving the progression that we are making and I am very optimistic about the future.
My mind is still being blown at the role that steemit is playing in it. Just like when we bought our hogs with earnings from steemit, a lot of progress on the land is being made possible because of steemit! I hope that one day your dreams come true too! Steem on!
