I clicked on "Send Feedback" & complained to RUclips once again for their unwarranted, unwanted censorship of SheepishlyMe.

I was lucky enough to become friends with a family who’s dad was a work from home RUclips person. It’s been 8 years since their move to cali but I’m certainly things have gotten worse.
So what does that mean? Does that mean that she doesn't have ads in her videos that pay her or that she won't get paid for her videos? I pay for RUclips so I don't see the ads anymore I don't understand what demonetized means exactly

I love these videos! I love seeing Sandi learning new things and implementing them. One thing I have learned in my 40 years is that you are never done learning.
Naedj I agree with you 100%! We are capable of learning more as we get older. Some people think that when we are grown that it's hard to learn new things. I am sending you some love your way ❤❤. Have a great day and week
Along my career path as a nurse, now retired, we had to get CEU’s toward renewal of the nursing license. You quickly come to the understanding you always need to remain teachable. To me that meant willing to continue to learn. If you want to give God a chuckle, let yourself believe you learned all you need to learn. Wrong!
My dad was an animal nutritionist specializing in dairy cows until he retired. These last few videos with all the talk about rations, nutritionists, feed companies, etc has felt so at home to me ❤
You are such a hard worker. Many people that live in city couldn’t even be begin to do what you do in a single half hour. You and your husband and your family are absolutely amazing. People that don’t work on a farm have no idea how much much work is involved. My father was raised on a little family Farm. They learned the importance of working together as a team. They learned the responsibility and doing your part. Strong work ethics was definitely taught to him. I am so grateful that he has taught us strong work, ethics.
Sandy, you rock! Thank you for giving "women" a good name. You are such a hard worker, you don't complain, you just get at it and get it done! I am so glad that I found your channel many moons ago! You are very much appreciated!
I think most women do work hard. Sometimes the work is not as visible for those who aren't paying attention nor considering it important. If someone stops for a day or two though, how many things fall apart? I also hope the complaining is trying to get a situation and a better place for all involved.
Ah Sandi, I know things have been tough. Good for you for leaving no stone unturned and deciding to consult with additional professionals Love, love your photography hugs to all
New videos from Sandi are the best pick me up in the mornings! ❤ Praying for you for this lambing season! I hope things are better with the changes you’re making. You are one amazing woman Sandi! Never forget that! ❤️🐑❤️

I sooo enjoy your channel. You and your family's work ethic is to be admired. You guys' stamina is beyond compare. Thank you for sharing your farming life with me and the world❤
Happy 51st Birthday Mark🎁🎂🥳🎉. It's great to see all of the extra wheat baled. It's an incredible bit of machinery that wraps the wheat. Very clever indeed. Sad that another Mumma stillbirth her baby. It would be good to know a why she delivered early. Keep being you, I love your honesty & transparency ❤️

I get excited when your blog pops up. Everyday seems like a lesson of learning the ropes. You are one heck of a teacher. Never bored by learning new things, probably listening better than I did in school 😂😂. ❤❤❤❤❤
She is a great educator! And I always go out with the motivation to tackle all my projects because I see how many Sandi is juggling and it reminds me to JUST DO THE STUFF!
I really enjoy your videos. I’ve learned more about sheep from you and I didn’t even realize that I was interested in them. I find myself talking about your channel to anyone who will listen. Thank you!
You are an amazing person. You reached out when you need to. You're hesitant trying new things but, push come to shove, you stand your ground and shove. Rooting for you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK

SANDI. I love how you are so honest with your thoughts and with your feelings. Even though I am not a sheep farmer, you remind me a lot of me and how I control my feelings. You look perfectly fine on the outside, but inside, there’s stress, anxiety, and the unknown. Know that you are not alone and that many people are like this. People can look at you and say you look just fine and are doing fine, but inside, your body does not feel fine because you question yourself, what you’re doing, what’s happening, and if everything will go OK. Thoughts like that can swirl in your mind all day long and it’s not fun! You have done such an amazing job and your love for your flock is beautiful. Just know deep down in your heart you are doing amazing work and you’re trying your hardest. If I was a sheep, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but with you and your flock! And if I was lucky, I could maybe even be a golden girl! 😊Keep yourself healthy, take time for you, and things will start looking up and everything will keep on rolling! Even though you are so busy with the every day chores of life on a farm, taking a 15 to 30 minute walk, even if you don’t think you have time, can really clear your mind and brighten your day! Take care and remember, we’re pulling for you every step of the way. Praying for a great lambing.❤️🐑
Wow nice to see how the treatment actually is worthwhile. I cant believe how much their levels dropped. Well done Sandy! You are a phenomenal farmer who takes great care of her animals.
Sandi you are an amazing person! I wanna be like Sandi when I grow up! I would love to have you around to pick your brain about so much. Please know and remember how special you are to all of us but especially me ❤️
Yay, a new video from Sandi! Lots of hard work, and so many moving pieces! It sounds like you're really having a good plan for what you're gonna try with the new feed. Good luck! Happy birthday Mark! 🎉

I’m not sure how much you read comments so I’m putting this here hoping you do see it. You’ve provided a huge wealth of information that has and continues to help us improve both our animal care and our business. While we have yet to have pregtox I’m learning along with you and I guarantee that will improve flock health beyond your own.
Loved your comment, but I'm terrible about seeing things spelled wrong. Sandi spells her name with an "i." I always think you'd want to spell her name right. Edit. Your "your like a ninja..." It's "you're like a ninja..." It's you are, so you're. Yup. You can come for me and smack me. I just don't want you to continue to spell things incorrectly. Thank you for your kind comment and I saw that it caught Sandi's eye, too. That's so cool!🎉🎉🎉
Your doing an amazing job. The way you understand your sheep and seek advice for improvements then implement that advice is very impressive. Most people would hear how they can improve but never take the advice. I hope this lambing is the best yet
We'll have to wait until the December lambing to see how much the ration changes will help with preg-tox. I'm already excited about seeing that and we haven't gotten this lambing going yet! I SO hope things get better for Sandi. She puts so much of herself into her ewes. And, of course, her lambs. It's going to be an exciting time for us watching! 🐑 ❤️ 💙 💜 🐑 ❤️ 💙 💜 🐑
Woohoo! Preg tox numbers have come down. I'm sorry for the stillbirths. Sandi u are one of a kind❣️ Girl u handled everything so well. When u were stacking bales on the trailer I was shouting "Go girl, look at u! U the pro!" I really needed this today.....my cancer has come back for a 4th time and is now metastatic. I'm scared. So when I can take my mind off it for even a lil while it's the best. Love from North Carolina ❤🐑🐕🦺
I am loving the straw being dried in in the sun after the wheat cut and honestly I will say this again, I have seen the process for years in fields around me but never totally understood it and now I know and appreciatte it so much much more because of you both. Happy Birthday Mark and hope you get your little fishing break in. hugs. You both really have had a hard week my gosh most people cry about nothing I feel included when I think I did. Always look at the wrapped hay/straw in the fields and wondered how the heck do they do that. Well now I know. Love how you just use what could work that is hanging around and not just waste money running out to buy new. Get some rest xo
Sandi, I have a brand new grand baby, 2 weeks old and we all noticed when she gets fussy she quiets down when she hears you. I know she can't see very good right now but she is fixed on the tv when you are on it.. My son was up with her all night last night so he went to the living room to rock her to let mom sleep. He turned RUclips on and picked a video from like 2 years ago.. You not only calmed baby down but my son watched multiple videos after baby fell asleep. Im sure he's really tired today but he said at lunchtime he can't wait to get home and pick up where he left off from last night lol. At one time we had you on 3 of the 4 tv's in the house because we were passing baby around to try to get her to sleep.. All we needed was some Sandi... much love
Great story! I find Sandi's voice very calming myself, so I'm not surprised your brand-spanking-new grandchild enjoys her, too. I hope the new one's sleep cycle gets calmer with time. In the mean time, your son has some good RUclips videos to watch! Congratulations on your new arrival! 🎉🎉🎉
❤❤love watching the field work! The machinery is fascinating. Thank you and Mark for all the explanations. The sheep look great. You are a wonderful shepardess! Bless you❤❤
No only are you awesome at taking care of your sheep….. you are also very good at handling all the heavy equipment that you drive on your beautiful farm! It’s amazing to watch you do a lot of things that I know I could never do…. I can drive a car but thats about it!…. 😂 take care…and give yourself a that a girl…pat on the back…job well done pretty lady! ❤️

Sandi, I just love watching you as you learn through various trials and successes. I love that you share it with us all of it. Congratulations on finishing wheat harvest and Happy Birthday wishes to Mark! Keep up the great work.
I'm happy for you for the part that went well! Sorry about the Ewe that lambed early! I know that you tend to be hard on yourself, but I have seen you turn around many of your problems!! I have Great Faith in You!😊❤
Not weird at all. And they do a lot of the same body-working work, so they're both so lean! Sandi may be in the barn, but during the harvest times, she's right out there with those big machines, too. They seem pretty close in what they like to do with their down time. It'll be interesting if in their later years when they aren't doing as much strenuous work, will they get little pot-bellies! LoL Maybe Mark, but I'm thinking Sandi won't allow that to happen. I'm older, so I'm not sure if I'll be around to see it, but it sure will be fun to watch. Thanks for your comment! I got a big smile out of just thinking about it.!
Some mornings I wake up and think “There may be sheep!” It’s a good morning when it happens. Thank you so very much for sharing your life and work with us.
Sandi……LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos and I have to tell you that yours are the only ones I watch that make me sad when I see they are at the end! My 5 year old grandson always runs over to me when he hears your sheep and says, Mimi is that your sheep friend? And I always tell him yes. The other day he followed up by asking….”but have you ever met her?” 😂😂😂😂
I know. My kids are all in their 30's and know all about Sandi and ask after Jess. I love that about my kids. About 25 years ago now, I met a group of gals on a weight loss site. All of these years later, about 10 of us are still talking, and for the most part, daily. I've met 3 of them in person now! We range from all across the US, with none of us being any closer than 5 hours driving time apart. Sandi is a good friend who I'll never meet or even talk to and it won't stop me from caring about her, her family, and her flock. She has enriched my life and I feel blessed for "knowing" her.
Happy 51st birthday Mark! I can almost remember mine it was 34 years ago!! Seriously!! ha ha. I still enjoy following you 2 around the farm w/the sheep & the crops. Brings back fond childhood memories!
My Mom is also 85! I was visiting her several months ago and started her watching Sandi's videos, too! She grew up on a mink ranch with farming thrown in. I have good memories of visiting my grandparents farm when I was little. Thank you for bringing my Mom to mind. She lives in Texas and I'm in Utah. I often wonder why...
Change is hard! The fact you are willing to take the time money and energy to improve things on your farm shows courage and dedication on your part. Kudos!
So many reasons why i love your channel. First, you love your family and it shows in everything you do. Last year you all went through some terrifying life issues and you all just kept moving forward. It was hard for you all of course but everyone kept on going when most people would have fallen. I count myself in the latter. Second you love your animals. Each and every one gets your full attention. I know the sheep are your business but they mean more to you than that. Third no matter what you are working on you give 110 % and you do it with a smile on your face. Seeing you working side by side with Mark is so wonderful. Thanks for all you do and sharing parts of your life with us.
Happy Birthday Mark!!! My grandpa said to me several times while I was growing up, "Farming is always a learning experience. Things are constantly changing, no matter what type of animal you raise."
Your beautiful, kind considerate and abundant heart and soul showing up each day for these Ewes, Rams and lambs is the ultimate spice to your magic recipe. We love you
Please sleep well. Stunned at how stressful and heavy sheep farming is, and also that you do a lot of grain fieldwork as well. Then there is the day labour on the new build, coping with the challenges of weather, the exigencies of your online store, and getting time for home life. Love your work boots, looked like Blundstones. I really love the old barn with its different construction materials, possibly put together over a long period. The sunlight beaming through the vertical wooden slats is just gorgeous.
Happy Birthday Mr Brock! Love when you share your side of family farming! Fingers crossed you at least can grab Sandy and head back to the cabin! ❤️🎂❤️
Happy Birthday, Mark. Success with wheat and straw 2024. Other crops looking good? So glad, Sandi, you are on a new track with pregnancy toxemia. Not only better for the sheep, but also good for your peace of mind.

Sandi, you need to bring out a female work gear range. Pink, purple, teal in overalls, boots, jumpers, shirts. Some work gear in Australia make hot pink and purple safety boots, and hot pink and Fluro yellow safety shirts. Happy Birthday Mark
Happy birthday, Mark! I am glad you are finally getting closer to figuring out the preg tox issue with your sheep, this has been such a big concern for you. I hope it is resolved soon, and you can get this monkey off your back!
Ditto to all the positive comments from the community🥰❣️🥰 think of all the excellent information you are giving to Carissa for her future, also to Jack and Jess they are benefiting how they will handle farm animals under their care, so, fantastic!!
Wow, I remember 51, Happy B-Day Mark!!. That was some mighty fine sheep wranglin' there Sandi. No wonder you're so fit; You really work hard, especially with helping in the fields as well. Please take care of yourself !! ❤❤❤❤
Sandi, I can't say enough about how I love to watch your videos. I admire you for so many reasons. Your videos are sort of kick in the pants I need some days. My health makes getting enough done some days a real challenge to say the least. But then... I watch your latest video & how hard you work, your dedication to everything on your farm, not the least being your sheep. I get inspired to get back up & get more done. So... thank you for that. I cry with you when there's a loss in the barn, I also cheer you on when there's a success, like today with how your mama's tested. Of all the channels I choose to follow, I am probably the most "removed" from your situation. The farm/field work & your sheep are all things I would have loved to do I'm my life, but life went a different way for me. Just know I'm one of those people that live vicariously thru you & enjoy your videos more than you can know. Be well, rest up whenever you can going into lambing again & be pleased with the positive impact you have on people. God bless you and yours Sandi. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow Sandi, another very comprehensive and educational video. We are always with you, as you learn, we learn. Farming is a daily challenge! Keep up the great work!!! ❤ 🐑
I was wondering, that ewe that had the single stillborn, is that an abscess on the right side of her jaw or a swollen lymphoid? I could be totally wrong! I love how much you care for these girls!

These last few videos with all the talk about rations, nutritionists, feed companies, etc has felt so at home to me ❤
You are such a hard worker. Many people that live in city couldn’t even be begin to do what you do in a single half hour. You and your husband and your family are absolutely amazing. People that don’t work on a farm have no idea how much much work is involved. My father was raised on a little family Farm. They learned the importance of working together as a team. They learned the responsibility and doing your part. Strong work ethics was definitely taught to him. I am so grateful that he has taught us strong work, ethics.
Sandy, you rock! Thank you for giving "women" a good name. You are such a hard worker, you don't complain, you just get at it and get it done! I am so glad that I found your channel many moons ago! You are very much appreciated!
""women?"" Sounds like, women, are aliens, when put in, quotes, lol 👽👾👽
I think most women do work hard. Sometimes the work is not as visible for those who aren't paying attention nor considering it important. If someone stops for a day or two though, how many things fall apart?
I also hope the complaining is trying to get a situation and a better place for all involved.
Ah Sandi, I know things have been tough. Good for you for leaving no stone unturned and deciding to consult with additional professionals
Love, love your photography hugs to all
New videos from Sandi are the best pick me up in the mornings! ❤
Praying for you for this lambing season! I hope things are better with the changes you’re making. You are one amazing woman Sandi! Never forget that! ❤️🐑❤️
In my prayers as well!
You do the best you can with the information you have at the time.

I love you and your sheep, lamb and dogs so much.
Hello 👋
Mrs. Brock you are truly awesome. You always put your sheep first. You're always so open to getting outside help. Things will turn around. Just know you're doing awesome and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Thanks for being so awesome
Let's hope things smooth out with the ewes and we don't lose anymore babies. 👍🏼 Your method so far has proven to be effective, Sandi. The next couple weeks will really tell. You haven't lost any ewes yet. 🤞🏼
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!! 🎈🎈🎈
See you next time!

I sooo enjoy your channel. You and your family's work ethic is to be admired. You guys' stamina is beyond compare. Thank you for sharing your farming life with me and the world❤
Thank You God for our dedicated and hard working farmers, especially Mark and Sandi.
Thank you, hard working & dedicated farmers, not, "god."
Happy 51st Birthday Mark🎁🎂🥳🎉. It's great to see all of the extra wheat baled. It's an incredible bit of machinery that wraps the wheat. Very clever indeed. Sad that another Mumma stillbirth her baby. It would be good to know a why she delivered early. Keep being you, I love your honesty & transparency ❤️

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK! I hope you have a great day!
I get excited when your blog pops up. Everyday seems like a lesson of learning the ropes. You are one heck of a teacher. Never bored by learning new things, probably listening better than I did in school 😂😂. ❤❤❤❤❤
She is a great educator! And I always go out with the motivation to tackle all my projects because I see how many Sandi is juggling and it reminds me to JUST DO THE STUFF!
I really enjoy your videos. I’ve learned more about sheep from you and I didn’t even realize that I was interested in them. I find myself talking about your channel to anyone who will listen. Thank you!
LoL!
Me, too! 🐑 ❤ 🐑
You are an amazing person. You reached out when you need to. You're hesitant trying new things but, push come to shove, you stand your ground and shove.
Rooting for you!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK

I love that you continually ruminate, consult and research flock & lamb issues. I admire your stewardship and on my end it is fun to learn.
SANDI. I love how you are so honest with your thoughts and with your feelings. Even though I am not a sheep farmer, you remind me a lot of me and how I control my feelings. You look perfectly fine on the outside, but inside, there’s stress, anxiety, and the unknown. Know that you are not alone and that many people are like this. People can look at you and say you look just fine and are doing fine, but inside, your body does not feel fine because you question yourself, what you’re doing, what’s happening, and if everything will go OK. Thoughts like that can swirl in your mind all day long and it’s not fun! You have done such an amazing job and your love for your flock is beautiful. Just know deep down in your heart you are doing amazing work and you’re trying your hardest. If I was a sheep, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but with you and your flock! And if I was lucky, I could maybe even be a golden girl! 😊Keep yourself healthy, take time for you, and things will start looking up and everything will keep on rolling! Even though you are so busy with the every day chores of life on a farm, taking a 15 to 30 minute walk, even if you don’t think you have time, can really clear your mind and brighten your day! Take care and remember, we’re pulling for you every step of the way. Praying for a great lambing.❤️🐑
Very well said! 🎉 🐑 🎉 🐑 🎉
Tell Mark Happy Birthday 🎉. Can't believe how much progress on the building. Love it.
Im working on that building got the roof on and are starting to ti vec and put windows in . Build is going well
Sandi, is there anything you can’t do? I’m so proud of you.
Wow nice to see how the treatment actually is worthwhile. I cant believe how much their levels dropped. Well done Sandy! You are a phenomenal farmer who takes great care of her animals.
Yes! That was SO nice to see those lower numbers!
I'm hoping it means no more stillborn lambs as Sandi keeps a close eye on the remaining ewes.
Sandi you are an amazing person! I wanna be like Sandi when I grow up! I would love to have you around to pick your brain about so much. Please know and remember how special you are to all of us but especially me ❤️
Sandi for the Gold!
Sheep Catching Olympics 😂❤
Definitely should be the new sport 😂
Yay, a new video from Sandi! Lots of hard work, and so many moving pieces! It sounds like you're really having a good plan for what you're gonna try with the new feed. Good luck! Happy birthday Mark! 🎉

I’m not sure how much you read comments so I’m putting this here hoping you do see it. You’ve provided a huge wealth of information that has and continues to help us improve both our animal care and our business. While we have yet to have pregtox I’m learning along with you and I guarantee that will improve flock health beyond your own.
Wonderful comment! 🐑 ❤ 🐑
Sandy, your like a ninja getting those girls in the single pen! 🤣 Great job! ♥️🙏
Loved your comment, but I'm terrible about seeing things spelled wrong.
Sandi spells her name with an "i."
I always think you'd want to spell her name right.
Edit.
Your "your like a ninja..."
It's "you're like a ninja..."
It's you are, so you're.
Yup.
You can come for me and smack me.
I just don't want you to continue to spell things incorrectly.
Thank you for your kind comment and I saw that it caught Sandi's eye, too.
That's so cool!🎉🎉🎉
There's always something new to learn and new circumstances to adjust to.
Always! 🎉 🐑 🎉 🐑 🎉
Your doing an amazing job. The way you understand your sheep and seek advice for improvements then implement that advice is very impressive. Most people would hear how they can improve but never take the advice. I hope this lambing is the best yet
We'll have to wait until the December lambing to see how much the ration changes will help with preg-tox.
I'm already excited about seeing that and we haven't gotten this lambing going yet!
I SO hope things get better for Sandi.
She puts so much of herself into her ewes.
And, of course, her lambs.
It's going to be an exciting time for us watching!

Woohoo! Preg tox numbers have come down. I'm sorry for the stillbirths. Sandi u are one of a kind❣️ Girl u handled everything so well. When u were stacking bales on the trailer I was shouting "Go girl, look at u! U the pro!" I really needed this today.....my cancer has come back for a 4th time and is now metastatic. I'm scared. So when I can take my mind off it for even a lil while it's the best. Love from North Carolina ❤🐑🐕🦺
🙏for skilled, compassionate care & a complete recovery (from 2 time Ca survivor) 💕💕
@@elainerempel1613Thank u💗
You're in my positive thoughts and heart. ❤❤❤
Wishing you the best and hope for your recovery! From a fellow North Carolinian. 🩷🙏
Sandi, you are so good to your sheep mamas & babies. Nature is complicated. We ALL know you're a great care giver..
Sorry for your loss and health struggles with your herd.
Thanks for sharing.
I am loving the straw being dried in in the sun after the wheat cut and honestly I will say this again, I have seen the process for years in fields around me but never totally understood it and now I know and appreciatte it so much much more because of you both. Happy Birthday Mark and hope you get your little fishing break in. hugs. You both really have had a hard week my gosh most people cry about nothing I feel included when I think I did. Always look at the wrapped hay/straw in the fields and wondered how the heck do they do that. Well now I know. Love how you just use what could work that is hanging around and not just waste money running out to buy new. Get some rest xo
Sandi, I have a brand new grand baby, 2 weeks old and we all noticed when she gets fussy she quiets down when she hears you. I know she can't see very good right now but she is fixed on the tv when you are on it.. My son was up with her all night last night so he went to the living room to rock her to let mom sleep. He turned RUclips on and picked a video from like 2 years ago.. You not only calmed baby down but my son watched multiple videos after baby fell asleep. Im sure he's really tired today but he said at lunchtime he can't wait to get home and pick up where he left off from last night lol. At one time we had you on 3 of the 4 tv's in the house because we were passing baby around to try to get her to sleep.. All we needed was some Sandi... much love
Great story!
I find Sandi's voice very calming myself, so I'm not surprised your brand-spanking-new grandchild enjoys her, too.
I hope the new one's sleep cycle gets calmer with time.
In the mean time, your son has some good RUclips videos to watch!
Congratulations on your new arrival! 🎉🎉🎉
❤❤love watching the field work! The machinery is fascinating. Thank you and Mark for all the explanations. The sheep look great. You are a wonderful shepardess! Bless you❤❤
Sandi, your videos are so wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. You and your family are loved!
Happy birthday Mark💥 it won’t be long lil lambies will be everywhere ❤️
No only are you awesome at taking care of your sheep….. you are also very good at handling all the heavy equipment that you drive on your beautiful farm! It’s amazing to watch you do a lot of things that I know I could never do…. I can drive a car but thats about it!…. 😂 take care…and give yourself a that a girl…pat on the back…job well done pretty lady! ❤️
Happy birthday, Mark 🎉, hope you have a blessed day.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. You've got this Sandy!! You're an amazing sheep farmer. Been watching you for a few years. Love your show. Tuning in for more updates.
Happy birthday Mark. Wow 51. I can recall that age. Sandi, that was good. Jello with a fork.
I really want you to add a line of t-shirts that says We’re going to be making a few changes. Hugs.

Sandi, I just love watching you as you learn through various trials and successes. I love that you share it with us all of it. Congratulations on finishing wheat harvest and Happy Birthday wishes to Mark! Keep up the great work.
Happy Birthday Mark! I wish you another 50 healthy and love-filled years!
I'm happy for you for the part that went well! Sorry about the Ewe that lambed early! I know that you tend to be hard on yourself, but I have seen you turn around many of your problems!! I have Great Faith in You!😊❤
This is such a true comment!
Sandi never gives up!
I'm sorry if this is weird, but they're such a naturally good-looking couple. ❤
Not weird at all.
And they do a lot of the same body-working work, so they're both so lean!
Sandi may be in the barn, but during the harvest times, she's right out there with those big machines, too.
They seem pretty close in what they like to do with their down time.
It'll be interesting if in their later years when they aren't doing as much strenuous work, will they get little pot-bellies! LoL
Maybe Mark, but I'm thinking Sandi won't allow that to happen.
I'm older, so I'm not sure if I'll be around to see it, but it sure will be fun to watch.
Thanks for your comment!
I got a big smile out of just thinking about it.!
Some mornings I wake up and think “There may be sheep!” It’s a good morning when it happens. Thank you so very much for sharing your life and work with us.
Sandi……LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos and I have to tell you that yours are the only ones I watch that make me sad when I see they are at the end!
My 5 year old grandson always runs over to me when he hears your sheep and says, Mimi is that your sheep friend? And I always tell him yes. The other day he followed up by asking….”but have you ever met her?” 😂😂😂😂
I know.
My kids are all in their 30's and know all about Sandi and ask after Jess.
I love that about my kids.
About 25 years ago now, I met a group of gals on a weight loss site.
All of these years later, about 10 of us are still talking, and for the most part, daily.
I've met 3 of them in person now!
We range from all across the US, with none of us being any closer than 5 hours driving time apart.
Sandi is a good friend who I'll never meet or even talk to and it won't stop me from caring about her, her family, and her flock.
She has enriched my life and I feel blessed for "knowing" her.
Congratulations on catching those ewes early and treating them. It's great to see how proactive management pays off.
Happy 51st birthday Mark! I can almost remember mine it was 34 years ago!! Seriously!! ha ha. I still enjoy following you 2 around the farm w/the sheep & the crops. Brings back fond childhood memories!
My Mom is also 85!
I was visiting her several months ago and started her watching Sandi's videos, too!
She grew up on a mink ranch with farming thrown in.
I have good memories of visiting my grandparents farm when I was little.
Thank you for bringing my Mom to mind.
She lives in Texas and I'm in Utah.
I often wonder why...
Change is hard! The fact you are willing to take the time money and energy to improve things on your farm shows courage and dedication on your part. Kudos!
I'm glad to see things have turned around a little in the barn, even if you still have a bit of preg tox floating around.
Brian
So many reasons why i love your channel. First, you love your family and it shows in everything you do. Last year you all went through some terrifying life issues and you all just kept moving forward. It was hard for you all of course but everyone kept on going when most people would have fallen. I count myself in the latter. Second you love your animals. Each and every one gets your full attention. I know the sheep are your business but they mean more to you than that. Third no matter what you are working on you give 110 % and you do it with a smile on your face. Seeing you working side by side with Mark is so wonderful. Thanks for all you do and sharing parts of your life with us.
Hey Sandi & Mark 🌷🍃”Happy Birthday Mark”🥳🎉🥃✌️💚😎🌈☀️🌊🌺🌴
Happy Birthday Mark!!! My grandpa said to me several times while I was growing up, "Farming is always a learning experience. Things are constantly changing, no matter what type of animal you raise."
Belated happy birthday Mark. Enjoy your day.
What a lovely setting! The fields of straw and hay with bales scattered throughout make me feel peaceful.
Happiest Birthday Mark

Your beautiful, kind considerate and abundant heart and soul showing up each day for these Ewes, Rams and lambs is the ultimate spice to your magic recipe. We love you
Happy birthay🎉 And Sandi, don't beat yourself up. You go above and beyond with your sheep and crops.
Never doubt yourself you’re very smart and you know what you’re doing. You figure it all out. Look at what you’ve accomplished you’re amazing.
Please sleep well.
Stunned at how stressful and heavy sheep farming is, and also that you do a lot of grain fieldwork as well. Then there is the day labour on the new build, coping with the challenges of weather, the exigencies of your online store, and getting time for home life. Love your work boots, looked like Blundstones.
I really love the old barn with its different construction materials, possibly put together over a long period. The sunlight beaming through the vertical wooden slats is just gorgeous.
Happy Birthday Mr Brock! Love when you share your side of family farming! Fingers crossed you at least can grab Sandy and head back to the cabin! ❤️🎂❤️
So sweet! Willow came up to Sandi to get her head scratched! 💕💕💕💕
I saw that, too.

Happy Birthday, Mark. Success with wheat and straw 2024. Other crops looking good? So glad, Sandi, you are on a new track with pregnancy toxemia. Not only better for the sheep, but also good for your peace of mind.
We probably won't see the results until this coming December lambing, but that'll make Christmas that much more exciting!

Sandi, you need to bring out a female work gear range. Pink, purple, teal in overalls, boots, jumpers, shirts. Some work gear in Australia make hot pink and purple safety boots, and hot pink and Fluro yellow safety shirts.

In your spare time LOL
Why does female mean we need pink?
My sister is an Arborist and she LOVES hi-viz orange.
@@CWorgen5732I agree! I'm not fond of pink and never buy it.

Ditto to all the positive comments from the community🥰❣️🥰 think of all the excellent information you are giving to Carissa for her future, also to Jack and Jess they are benefiting how they will handle farm animals under their care, so, fantastic!!

Wow, I remember 51, Happy B-Day Mark!!. That was some mighty fine sheep wranglin' there Sandi. No wonder you're so fit; You really work hard, especially with helping in the fields as well. Please take care of yourself !! ❤❤❤❤
Sandi, I can't say enough about how I love to watch your videos. I admire you for so many reasons. Your videos are sort of kick in the pants I need some days. My health makes getting enough done some days a real challenge to say the least. But then... I watch your latest video & how hard you work, your dedication to everything on your farm, not the least being your sheep. I get inspired to get back up & get more done. So... thank you for that. I cry with you when there's a loss in the barn, I also cheer you on when there's a success, like today with how your mama's tested.
Of all the channels I choose to follow, I am probably the most "removed" from your situation. The farm/field work & your sheep are all things I would have loved to do I'm my life, but life went a different way for me. Just know I'm one of those people that live vicariously thru you & enjoy your videos more than you can know. Be well, rest up whenever you can going into lambing again & be pleased with the positive impact you have on people. God bless you and yours Sandi. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
That was a lovely comment and it touched my heart.
Thank you for saying the things I find hard to put into words.

Wow Sandi, another very comprehensive and educational video. We are always with you, as you learn, we learn. Farming is a daily challenge! Keep up the great work!!! ❤ 🐑
When 99% of medical issues comes down to diet/gut in humans, you would figure that its the same for animals. So glad you have a plan going forward.
Happy birthday Mark, 51 years old is very young. Enjoy all of your days.
I was wondering, that ewe that had the single stillborn, is that an abscess on the right side of her jaw or a swollen lymphoid? I could be totally wrong! I love how much you care for these girls!
