Muriel

I feel incredibly guilty about my relationship with Muriel or should I say lack of.

 

I always felt a conection with her and when she was about to have her first calf I spent a lot of time with her and the other 4 heifers.

I saw her go into labor and I was honored when she brought her calf to me. She never liked me to pat her but she would always sniff up and down my arm as if to give approval.

 

Her and the other heifers have had their calves and are now with the rest of the herd. I will go and check on them and Muriel and I have these unsaid and awkward moments.

The only way I can describe it is, you know when you used to be friends with someone and you know them well but you have drifted apart and something came between you. But when you see each other across a room you know what they are thinking and you give them a knowing nod, wishing things could go back to how they were but knowing they never will.

 

Well that is how I feel with Muriel.
