- Well, the time has come...
My sweet little girl is getting all dolled up for her first date with the boys starting Thursday!!
Yup, Charlie is back today and got to meet little Willow for the first time and sheared off her very first coat of wool.
Also said hello to the Golden girls as I've been a bit absent lately.
They played hard to get for a bit... until they thought perhaps a second feeding of grain was potential.

We are all so proud of you in everything you do. Your story is yours, and it doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful and meaningful. You are a huge inspiration to so many of us, most of whom do not even have a background in farming! You are an incredible woman, and I truly hope that you’ve found peace and confidence within yourself throughout this journey ❤
Beautifully said!!❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦❤
My hearts exploding at this Yes yes yes beautifully said ❤
Well said and 100% agreed upon!
💯
Yes! This. Perfectly stated. Exactly how I feel.
❤ Missed you Sandi! but hopefully you've had a nice bit of time off from the laptop and hours of editing!.. never worry about taking time for yourself, I'm sure all of your followers would agree, you come FIRST! love ya!! Thank you for all you do 🥰😘🐑 xxx
Gosh Sandy! Your journey has not had failures. Your experiences have been filled with tons of opportunities for learning and growth! Don’t be so hard on yourself! You’re amazing! ❤️
Plus all the opportunities for us to learn right along with her! That is why I love this channel! I miss being able to do this stuff myself.
Willow is so very beautiful.❤🥰🥰 I am excited to see how well she takes to being a momma.
Lucy running into the corner when the sheep came barreling down the alley 🤣 Definitely a different dog than Kinsey!! Cracks me up!!!
She's a good mouser/bird hunter.🐀🐤
@@jenniferp5916Yes she is. Varmint hunting is just as important to a farmer as herding. It's historically been the most prominent drive to breed dogs for specific work. When you consider Kinsey: the focus was on obtaining and modifying hunting behaviour from our ancestors observing wolf packs. The Terriers like Lucy were bred to remain small, agile and prey driven.
Please don't apologize. I am happy you got out and about. You needed a break! You are fantastic. I appreciate you letting me share your adventures. Love seeing progress that you and Mark are making on the cabin. Beautiful ceiling. Please let Mark know I appreciate him too. Have a wonderful day
Yes, let Mark know we appreciate him, Jack, Jess, and Carissa, too. Wonderful, loving, and caring people, all of you!
Totally agree!!!
No apologies necessary for you to take time off, we just get a little spoiled during “Vlogmas!” It amazes me how quickly the lambs grow, even “Nugget” looks huge after not seeing her for a few days! I LOVE LUCY! Her facial expressions say so much. She went from watching her life pass before her eyes when she was caught in the “stampede,” to being Queen of the Barn while sitting on top of the straw bales! Watching your channel gives me the chance to unplug from real life. Just my tablet, a cup of hot tea and Sheepishly Me!
Best comment ☝️❣️💞✌️
OP = Public Speaking Hack, Don’t look at the People/Audience!
Instead, Look at the back wall of the room “behind” the People. The audience will still “see”+”believe” that You are looking “at them”..😊 Occasionally, just be sure to turn Your head from one side to the other, and scan across from one side to the other of the back wall so You visually distribute Your gaze through out the room and “include” the entire audience from the audience’s perspective..*smiles*
It’s a Hack that is used by both Public Speakers and Actors in theatre who are likewise nervous in front of live audiences..*smiles*…
{😂Don’t ask why I know this one!, But, it Does Work!}
Not surprised You we’re asked to participate. You have such a positive presence and no matter the subject You make everything so down to earth and relatable (even tho I think I’ve maybe touched a living sheep possibly 10x’s in my entire lifetime+that’s including petting zoos!)
As Always, Thank You for sharing Your Life, Your Family, Your animal tribe, and experiences! 😊
May Your 2023 be filled with only positive and prosperous experiences! 🥰👍
I LOVE the sparkle that your hubby gets in his eyes when you come around. And that smile! Girl. I hope to find a love like this one day. Love your channel ❤
Can you compile a 30 minute video on just the small lambs running back and forth? I for one CANNOT get enough of that!! I could watch it every day for hours on end :)
I agree I would love that too
And the bucking broncos, whirling bodies, and the lambnadoes.... tee hee! I just want to laugh and run with them!
Oh please make it longer than 30 minutes. I could watch leaping lambs for hours! ♥️
Willow our prom queen 👑. They grow up so fast. Missed your videos. Glad you are back 🙌
I can't be the only one that would happily watch videos of Charlie shearing all day long! It's just so relaxing and satisfying! And the way he switches hands and keeps the momentum flowing is just *chef's kiss*! If he EVER makes his own channel, you will tell us, right?!? I'm sure there's a lot of us that would throw tons of love his way!
If you enjoy watching shearing, check out Right Choice Shearing.
@@roosts20412 I do watch it, too! Love it!
So true about Charlie
I love the relationship that you & Carissa have. You can tell that it is not fake and you both truly get along, work well together and care about each other and the sheep. Sending love from New Brubswick
P.S. We have no snow!!
Willow is just a tiny girl! Hopefully she’ll be around to have babies for a long time!
You’re back Sandi!! We missed you soooo sooo much! I’ve been in Sandi withdrawals all week, now I got my fix so I’m good……at least for a few days!❤🥰 AND we got to see a little bit of all our favorite ewes and lambs ! Soo happy right now! ❤❤🥰🥰
Willow is going to make beautiful babies. How exciting. It’s always funny how one lamb will run , then they all do. Love it so much💕
It’s hard to believe that Willow and Red are old enough for breeding. It seems like only yesterday that they were born. I’m so glad that all of your speaking engagements went well.
Oh my gosh thank you, I think we ALL have missed you so much! No pressure, you do need a break! But thanks again😊❄️💚🙃
Mini willow to sit on a shelf would be so cute
A little shelf sitter or possibly a little "barn buddy" keychain of willow or just sheep(variety of colors cuz not much black) would be super cute!!
Same thought I had. It would be adorable.
A wool felted one :D or a diy
I thought about a Billy and Willow tobogans to wear. Make it so it looks like their faces are sitting on your head with your logo on the bottom. You could even make white/natural colored ones, too! Just an idea....
That was my thoughts exactly so pleased others feel the same
Poor Lucy got stuck, The sheep were really interested in her but she was scared. Good thing she is a good-natured pup. I love Willow's "Blonde" top.
I can now see why Lucy isn't a Sheepdog 😂 I'm so glad you took a break Sandy. Your health is important! The Cabin is looking amazing. Mark's a talented lad. I'm glad your presentation went well too. Everyone makes mistakes. We all think it's only us but it's not. ❤
I felt for poor Lucy too. She looked so trapped. As for Mark, Sandi tell him it is not ALL about sheep content. Sometimes we, the audience like to see the "Happy Husband " smile. Tell Mark he has a nice smile and a great laugh.
@@NancyBryantIdeas yeah I felt sorry for her too. I was worried the sheep would start butting her but thankfully they didn't. When I started following Sandi I used to wonder whether they had a happy marriage because Mark was so solemn all the time, but I'm sure they do, heck they're together whenever possible. Maybe they're just not extroverts? Besides they've got two high stress businesses which would drain anyone! Mark seems to be opening up more as he gets more comfortable with being a celebrity. Even the gorgeous Carissa doesn't seem to be as camera shy anymore!
@@S_F_U_L Yeah I saw that Carissa was starting to warm up a bit more. It helps if you think of it as being just a camera, and also if you film yourself doing something you love. (back before 2019 I had a UA-cam channel, doing head-covering tutorials, but I had to stop. I have not worked up the nerve to upload since that time.
@@NancyBryantIdeas that's sad. Did you get trolls or were you just uncomfortable being on camera? I hope you're still being creative. I started making Tiktoks to follow my cancer journey but I stopped too. I'm not dead, I was just too high on pain meds to do anything for 4-5 weeks, then I was focused on lowering the dosage so I could function, and then I was receiving radiotherapy and was too tired to do anything. It's nearly 3 months since my last TT and I'm too embarrassed to make anymore now 😔
@@S_F_U_L For me it was not trolls. I was in a huge spiritual battle. On August 2 2019 two Huskies got in my yard. They killed 25 young chickens and injured 18 others. That was a Friday, and by the end of the day, the death toll was up to 33. Even after that, I could feel a palatable hatred coming from a neighboring house southwest of me.
I broke up with the inattentive guy I was in a relationship with. He was more interested in a gal in Australia whom he had known for 25 years. (It sounds weird but she is a witch and was using his accounts to get to me. Yes, he let her do it too.
So to break that bond I deleted my UA-cam account. (Yeah, that is UA-cam suicide.) but I have not been attacked like that since.
Sorry to go on about myself like that, it sounds like you have been fighting an uphill battle while being pulled through the wringer backward.
I am glad for what content you can give. It's a gift and not an obligation. Thank you. Also...Willow! They grow up so fast. She is adorable.
My nephew stutters, and being the son of a 29yr army mom (who was literally a drill Sargent at some point) and she used to make him drop and give her 10-20 push ups when he started to stammer. She told us that story one day when my little sister had to present to doctors and nurses (on cancer) for work one day and she was petrified. So when my little sis got up to speak, she began with “um” and she started to laugh at the thought of doing push ups for the audience. So of course she had to share, they all laughed, and she was good to go from there. Moral of the story, be yourself, they can relate, have fun and make them laugh!
Lucy couldn't have gotten any tighter into that corner. Peeking over the bunk (in Lucy voice) "Mom I'm in the wrong spot rescue me!!!!!" Had me laughing so hard. So glad to see ya back Sandi. I know the deal with public speaking, I can't do it either. My tongue gets twisted in my mouth and the words grabble up and I melt into a puddle of ooze. Not my jam or jelly¡¡¡
Willow is so tiny and sweet. Have a great week Brock family 🐑🐑
I laughed so hard at poor Lucy! So innocent.
Sandi, you are truly an outstanding farmer with a personality that touches everyone's hearts! Not only did you do very well in your presentations, but you succeeded in making everyone's day with this video! Plus, there was Mark, Charlie, and Carissa doing what they do best! I think the cabin is really beautiful, too! As you were talking about how humbled you felt by admitting failure, that was an incredible blessing to others. I believe a good person is not afraid to admit failure; even as a nurse, I can't do it all and guarantee a medical outcome through success or failure. But I was raised to admit your wrongs or failures, learn from them, and educate others so they won't have to deal with the same outcomes.
Well, that one-of-a-kind hairdo on Willow might be regrettable as it's sheared, but it will be back sooner than later. She looks awesome either way in my book! Furthermore, no matter how long her bangs get, she can never cover up that awesome personality! Which brings me to Pita..... she looks at you like mama. However, we all know she is perfectly able to take care of herself! Kids are so sneaky! I thought that adding Rita on would be a cute idea: Pita Rita (not to be confused with an alcoholic beverage, tee hee)!
I'm glad you're back home and enjoying your sheep again. We appreciate you so much! May you have an abundance of peace and health! Hugs from Alabama ❤️
Oh Sandi!!! Your humbleness is why we and every one of your subscribers in this UA-cam community LOVE you! You’re not too proud to share your…do I say failures? We look at our failures as an education! Dad always says that education is expensive, but these educational experiences are the lessons we remember! Blessings to you from us girls from Double G&L Farms!
Experience is what we gain, when we don't get what we want. Plus it is priceless!
A "failure" just shows you what does NOT work!
Yeah and if we were perfect then we wouldn’t have nothing to strive for!
Nicely stated! As I posted, you admit your failures, learn from them, and share with others so they don't come across failure. I think Sandi is also a great educator. In my book, an educator doesn't always have all the right answers; they seek knowledge through communication with others and trials and failures/successes. I had a nursing instructor who really had no in-depth knowledge of labor and delivery. She was actually covering the class for a day. She literally read from our textbook until time up. The topics I learned about that stuck with me all these years later were from the 'side stories' (based on experience) that the regular teacher would tell. Sandi will always be learning and sharing with others.
Poor Lucy! But I couldn't help but think that she was practicing good sheep herding tactics by looking away and ignoring the sheep so they move where she wants them, which is away from her! She was so calm and didn't even nip at the girls when they got on top of her. Admire her bravery!
I wanted to cry for her xxxx❤❤❤❤❤❤
That's actually not how herding dogs do that. They make eye contact to get them to move away, or just move in general. They're even bred to have that certain stare/look in their eye for that reason! (Also, Lucy's not a herding dog, that's Kinzie's title lol)
@@_veronica_r I'm aware. =D I was commenting on the tactics the human ladies do with turning their backs and looking away. Joking about.
@@briley672
Ahh, gotcha XD that makes sense
Lucy got cut in a "lambspede" last year (?) while Sandy was moving the sheeps, and she ended stuck against the cement wall. I think it taught her to stay out of the way....
Remember that you always learn from your mistakes and can help others to avoid those same issues to be a step ahead. So glad you are doing the presentations and helping others. Willow is adorable!! And Red is such a cutie. Yay Charlie! Thank you for your hard work. Great job Mark on the wood work!
Sandi, I wanted to let you know you were paid a HUGE compliment by Tim from Linessa Farms in his youtube livestream Q&A on Jan 11 2023. He's been raising and caring for sheep and goats since he was a kid, and he does a live, unedited Q&A to answer questions about sheep & goats, and your name came up around 57:30. He says AND I QUOTE
"Sandi is the prime example of you CAN raise animals in captivity in a dry lot scenario and keep them very very healthy. Anybody that thinks her animals are not happy or healthy is just out of their mind."
I 100% agree!
Sandi and Mark…that cabin will be phenomenal when it’s finished. The thought put into it plus the quality of workmanship is great. A very interesting break from sheep 🐑 on occasion.
Sandi…you never cease to amaze me with the things you push yourself to do. You have so much to share about your sheep care and breeding and how you have grown your herd. ❤Love everything you share in your vlogs because it is you narrating. You are uplifting and inspiring…thank you!!!
I’m trying to figure out where the kitchen will be…. Under the loft?
Right? Every time I see the inside, I say "Can I rent that?" I live in California, so I hope that explains why. That, and I love snow and all things cold. And the Brock Family and the Brock Flock. *sigh*
Willow looks so adorable with long wool. Kind of like a muppet. Maybe a Willow teddy. lol
Watching the lambs run, jump, and play just puts a smile on my face every time 😊
Sandi always remember no one is perfect. The fact that you admit your mistakes is what makes you so endearing. If you admit your mistakes, you learn from them. My Mom taught us that at a very young age..
Sandi, never worry about public speaking, you are a natural. People want you to share your practical experiences, they have read the books, they want to know what REALLY works and you are the only one who can tell them that. Poor Lucy, it was like, I'm trapped now what do I do. Mark is good at whatever he does. As always, from Ohio, stay warm.
Today is a great day! I had my hysterectomy I. Hopes of getting rid of the cancer in my body…not only did I get my pathology back and scan results today that I am now cancer free, but you put up a new video!! I used your Vlogmas vids during my treatment and surgery recovery bedrest! Keep up the good work!
Dear Sandy, you are such a good public speaker!!! The only thing you need to do is to choose one person in the room and begin to speak to him/her. You will do it perfectly.
Hi Sandi
I am so glad you are ok, I will admit the week off did have me worry a little. LOL I always love and anticipate each of your videos and updates. I have watched you for years and one of the things I absolutely LOVE about you is that you are real, you have not changed (in a bad way) when you got more and more subs. You are still Sandi and transparent and not trying to portray perfection. You make it feel like I am with a close friend, not watching an act.
Thank you for all you do
You are in no way expected to post all the time, I don't want it to seem like we NEED your posts, we just LOVE them. You work harder than anyone I know and you are entitled to take any time off/breaks you want.
Poor Lucy, she was trying to make herself as small as possible 😂
I see Willow becoming a Golden Girl eventually! She’s such a cool sheep! And so much wool was on her…
Yay I'm so glad to have a dose of the Brock Flock!! Ive missed everyone's beautiful faces❤️I can't believe how big those baby lambs have gotten!!
Sandi, Gaining knowledge and improving our practice is how we master a skill. You are a great example of striving towards, a healthy productive flock. The goals in farming present a moving target with changing challenges. If all the information you needed to reach your goal were in a book, you would have read it and put it into practice. You set the bar high for others raising sheep and your generosity with shepherds and the UA-cam community that loves you is appreciated. 🤗👍💙🇺🇸🕊
It is perfectly fine for you to take a break. Glad you are back.
I’m guessing the sheep were like let’s intimidate Lucy for once. ❄️💚🙃
Hee hee hee! P a y b a c k.
It shows that you finally had a break from the UA-cams, as you seem much calmer, relaxed, and just all-round less stressed. Good for you! Even though you had those presentations, I bet just not having the camera up in your face was nice. As you so often tell us, mental health is very important! But you do have to remember to apply that to yourself as well. ❤
No matter what trade/work you’re in……everyone makes “mistakes“ ….this is how we learn and grow! There’s always a new idea coming down the tracks on ways to do things…..experimenting becomes experience! I’m amazed at not only the learning you have to do keep your flock but the amount of learning that you have to know to keep that equipment going when it needs repairs! Keep up the great work you and your family do!
As a fellow hand-switcher (for some things), I applaud Charlie's dexterity. :D
My dad is a left handed but plays lawn bowls with both right and left hands. He plays competitions and he takes joy in confusing the other team.
@@clarehagley2165 I used to do it shooting pool. Bridge? We don't need no steenkeen bridge!
I love how the lambs look at you with such inquisitive faces……..”What’s up for today!”
I fear making mistakes. Especially big ones. Making them in front of anyone else, ugh, it makes me feel sick to my stomach. Being a mom has really made me reflect on that. How I want to encourage my son, to not let fear get in his way of progress. Sure, be diligent, work hard, strive for excellence, but give yourself grace. And you share your mistakes, are honest, and vulnerable. Most cannot or do not, much less with your class. I admire your courage and strength. Thank you for all you do.
I love watching Charlie! He’s great! I never get tired of watching him!
Black wool hats are some of the most beautiful hats I have ever seen❤️❤️❤️
Sandi, thank you for being so open and honest with all your fans!
If you don't make mistakes, both as a person and a farmer, you don't grow into who you are meant to be!
Keep on being you!
Best tip I ever got is to smile, the bigger the better, before starting an exam or speaking in public
Smile, take a deep breath and know that no matter what happens it’s going to be alright
Absolutely never want to miss a CHARLIE day.
He is amazing being left handed then does a switcheroo with his equally strong right hand.
Sandi you shared his day just great. Flea prevention and pressure points so there isn’t wrinkley skin to shave.
Poor Lucy when she realized she was cornered when the sheep were coming at her.
Wow she nearly got kill by sheep 🙈🙈
I wouldn't use the word mistakes or failures, but learning experience, which we need in any endeavor we take in our lives. We all are students of something in our lives if we are really truly happy in what we do. Thanks for your channel. I am 80 years old and used to own a vineyard, so I know what hard work is and how rewarding it can be, much more so with animals than with grape vines. LOL
Let's all give Charlie a big hand and a thank you! What would we do without people like Charlie who are willing to do these back breaking jobs!
Both my sheep channels putting up a new video on the same day. Cammie's new baby is precious
It is so hard to believe little Willow is ready to be a mama! Bless her...where does time go?
I have never crossed my fingers more for a sheep to get pregnant as much as I am for sweet Willow. I know you will keep her for a pet because you love her so much (and are a sucker for your best gals), but its her first breed and I want her to do well :D
I am amazed how quickly the baby lambs grow. The cycle is quite amazing, birth to giving birth. They are so bouncy soon after they are born then gain weight and spend time lounging and watching the little ones play in between naps. Ha ha. Alot like us!!!
Sandi following and sharing your journey is such a joy! So happy the Little Nugget is doing so well … and what a big week for Willow just can’t believe she’s old enough for all this ! ❤❤
So happy to see you back ❤
Great to see you back. You brighten everybody's day, with a smile and a chat 🐑🐑👍👍👍🐑🐑
You should never feel you have to apologize for taking time for self care. Your mental and physical health is so much more important than our entertainment.
Baa baaa black sheep, have you any wool?…..not today! I love Willow! ❤️🐑
As a former sheep 4-H er, my heart swells with pride hearing those bleats in the barn. It’s been nearly 60 years ago on our sheep farm, Maple Rose Nursery and Farm but you make it feel like yesterday. Glad to have you back. My daily dose of Sandie was suffering.
Oh, Mary! What an awesome revelation! Sandi is so incredible, and she brightens up everyone's lives!
I so agree with you. I have watched all her videos and was in withdrawal. I’m not a farmer, but I love watching everything that goes on the farm with or without the sheep. Missed you Sandi!!
Sandi have you decided if “little Pita nugget” is going to get a name? (My vote is still for hollering Holly😁♥️) Willow & Red are gorgeous!
Charlie’s ambidextrous shearing style is so fun to watch! Definitely need a Charlie/Cammy (from TheSheepGame) collaboration! Proud of you for public speaking!
I'd say she's already named her -- Nugget, of course! 😍
Welcome back. I’ve missed you vlogs. I did watch you on instagram though. I wish I could have here your presentation about your sheep. Miss ya and I and your vlogs. I’m a happy UA-camr
I think she has already wandered into her name....Nugget! Even when Sandi was try to figure out a name for her, she was calling her Nugget. Sometimes names just appear serendipitously.
Being ambidextrous is probably a huge asset in a profession like shearing. Poor Lucy was supposed to be a tractor dog, but she ended up as a barn dog, but she's clearly not cut out for that either 😄
It's amazing how black Willows coat is closest to her skin. I thought the same thing as Sandy, she's so little. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so exited to see Willows babies in a few months time ❤️
Oh Sandi, so glad you‘re back! 🎉
I just watched some old episodes of the series McLeods Daughters. I nearly cried as I saw how many cuts and bleeding wounds that poor sheep had, after they got shorn! Charlie takes so much care of your animals and shows the respect every animal deserves! Good job ya‘ll!
Greetings from germany, I love your german adventcalendar!😍
I love watching the interaction between you and Clarissa you make a great team
Mark saying “It was a price”, with a smile, so funny.
So glad you are back! I was really missing the sheep and needed a much-needed video! You are the top, when it comes to the care, love and treatment of the sheep and the whole process of the herd. You put so much love into your sheep and family it is amazing that you can do it all! You have set the bar really high and no other herd owners can match what you do! Unfortunately, I have viewed videos from other sheep owners, and they pale in comparison to your operations. I look for new and interesting videos every time I come on UA-cam! Keep up the marvelous work! 🐑🐑🐑🐏🐏🐏🐏I think Willow is going to be a new star of the herd.
I'm so relieved to see this post. I haven't even looked at it yet but am soooo glad to see it!!! I've been praying that all is well since it's be awhile since you last posted. Ok, now I'll watch it 😁
I love the way your cabin is coming along! Mark is very talented. You’re both very skilled and amazing people to watch.
Willow is gorgeous. So ultra fluffy before her hair cut. Your sheep are beautiful❣️❣️ those babies are adorable❤️❤️
The Cabin is looking great! Well done to the both of you. Think it will be a real nice get-away without being out of reach should the fields and sheep need yall!
I've missed you! I just love everything in your videos. You, Mark, the kids, Carissa, the sheep, the dogs, the crops, the fields, the cabin.. EVERYTHING!
I would like a few Willow dryer balls. Gosh, I remember her when she was born. Mark's doing a great job on the cabin. I'm sure your grandpa is proud. Love ya all. Keep up the good work. P.S. Tomatoe is a stinker.
I’m so happy you enjoyed your trip and your mini-UA-cam break❤
I love how Charlie handles the lambs when shearing! It seems like such a smooth process! Kudos to Charlie! 💙💙💙
You’re back, we missed you, take care of yourself and your family
Gotta say, I love Charlie's accent. As someone who left the US midwest almost 4 years ago, it reminds me of home.
There is something about watching sheep shearing that is so satisfying. Thanks for that.
Ahhaaa that's where you've been! Congratulations on your speaking engagements! I'm sure you did great. We all missed you. Poor Lucy lol she did good not getting trampled. We all love and are glad your back.
Yay Willow!!!
Glad you're back, you have been missed.
You are the perfect presenter. Humble, honest, approachable and oh, so human. I just know you did more than one person there a great service. Plus you're a sweet person! That always shines through..
What a blessing for you to inspire a new generation with your stories. ❤
I turned on subtitles while the sheep were going "BAAaaaaaaaa" and subtitles said it was music lol.
Sandi I just wanted to say you made my day! ❄️💚🙃
There is nothing better than waking up to you and your sheep. Karisa seems like such a sweetheart!
I LOVE WILLOW! AND I LOVE THE BUMMER LAMB THAT THINKS SHE NEEDS YOU ALL THE TIME TO EAT❤
@user-rw3dp2fd9k love your channel and Thank You
I am so excited to see some willow babies this year. She's such a Beauty. Let's hope she can win over some boys and isn't shy lol
Sandi. I think your little lamb that you saved should be called Pixie ❤
So happy you are back, and thank you for the explanation of why you were absent. We all want to know that you are doing well.
The work that you do is exhausting but also fulfilling I’m sure, but with the added editing to make sure we get to know all that is going on with you and your woollies must raise your stress level to the utmost.
Pixie looks amazing and I love the interaction between you and she. Lol. She has your number 💕💕
No one ever finishes that quote. A Jack of all trades, but a master of none, is still always better than a master of one.
Sandi please don't be embarrassed about the mistakes you made in the past. you identified them as mistakes, found solutions to solve them and prevent them. you've grown so much as a sheep farmer, so be proud of yourself and what you've learned so far. we all are :)
Willow is so adorable, I like the mop of blonde hair on top
My brother-in-laws wool bags were at least twice that tall, and to pack the wool down was a chore. I never thought to ask him how he was able to move them after they were full. ❄️💚🙃
Our used to be those ones also, thankful they switched to these smaller bags.
Sandi, I am 73 and had to reluctantly give up the last of my sheep a few years ago. I started out nearly 30 yrs ago with Pygmy goats, then added a pair of Pygora goats and an Angora goat when I started spinning in 2004. And then sheep, of course. I loved my sheep. ❤️
I still spin, but I really miss the sight and sounds of animals in the barn. Your channel (and barn, and sheep - and all the babies!) have boosted my spirits. I could listen to you and them all day. Thank you!
I’m a spinner also, I had 3 lovely Pygora goats and my neighbor had a small flock of sheep, I had to retire and I miss those times, watching Sandi and her flock feels wonderful.
It warms my heart so much every time I see the retired ladies!! They are so sweet and it speaks so highly of how much you love your sheep. Tomatoes loves you so much and I think that is so adorable because she wasn’t one of your babies!!!
