Something happened, so I'm finally addressing this. ...a very chatty tractor cab confessional.

As we were rained out of the field, I took this time to sit down and start organizing my sheep management jobs... one being hoof trimming.
Didn't take long for us to get back on the land, which means a lot of tractor time for me, even more for Mark.
But back at home, something happened... and although we never wanted to chat about this online and draw attention to it, I thought maybe now was the time.
We truly love this online community, but ask that for people to not drop in unannounced as not only is this a working farm (lots of equipment moving about, and animals we are trying to keep healthy) but it's also our home... our safe space.
As always, thank you for being here... understanding and respecting this.

To all the 1.11 million viewers: It is NEVER, under any circumstance, okay to just show up at a KZfaqrs house, farm, ranch, field or wherever!!!! NEVER!!! That is trespassing!! Thank you for doing what you do Sandi. Much respect to you and your family. Happy Mothers Day!!!!

@jeanniemccall9484 Ай бұрын

Great statement - totally agree!! It's like driving into a town, choosing a house to stop at, pulling into their driveway, and inviting yourself into their house!! Would you really do that? Would you want someone to do that to YOU? No?!? Then don't do it to anyone on KZfaq either!! They share their lives with us (as much as they feel comfortable with) and that should be sufficient!! Unless you're a relative, DO NOT stop by any KZfaqr's HOME!!

I know she has had to address this before and it's a shame some people don't get it leave these you tubers alone they know how to get in touch with you if they ever want to.

I watch someone on FB who breeds horses…they own a farm in Tennessee… She’s had to make multiple videos telling people her property is not open, and to not trespass because she’s had random people to come take pictures and try to pet her animals. She currently has a Micro Premie foal (he was born at 286 days gestation, and has been in the equine hospital since February). The clinic actually had to take security measures, and she had to make a video telling people not to try and enter the clinic to take pictures/videos of Seven. She actually had to explain that there were ill horses at the hospital and what these people could possibly be bringing into them… Some people are just stupid and entitled. As you said they can’t tell the difference and what is and isn’t appropriate… Scary really…

My son was diagnosed with thyroid cancer that had spread to his lymph nodes 24 years ago. He says it was his 30th birthday present. After 6 major surgeries, they all but one small spot and removed well over 52 lymph nodes. Here we are 30 years later and he still has to go for regular checkups and scans. He has a scan scheduled soon. After all these years, it is still a very mentally stressful time every time it comes up. I don't know that it's something that will ever be easier.

You could have put out your back & been stuck bent over till Mark got there. Also I love Jess's short curly hair. The only good thing a cancer patient gets. If she cuts her hair, she loses the curls. I know a young woman who let her hair grow pretty long, she loved the waves she got with the long hair. She got a trim & she lost her waves & curls. Just a heads up for Jess.

I am so sorry someone thought it was ok to show up at your HOME without an invite!!!! Your hubby handled the situation with great constraint. I am guessing the license plate was from Ohio…….lol. Seriously, the narcissism of those uninvited people is downright scary, and unbelievably invasive. I am so sorry that it happened to your family. Hopefully, this video will make uncivilized people, without a lick of common sense, realize it is unacceptable to invade your personal space ever again.

Sandi, I was shocked when you talked about the person who showed up at your house. I can't imagine ever doing something like that. I'd be freaking out if someone did that to me and I wouldn't be gracious like Mark.

@mchelena1 Ай бұрын

"Gracious like Mark"? Have you ever looked into the eyes of a alligator 10 feet away and your are in a skiff? Cold unblinking eyes that you can't tell if he is going to eat you or fart and swim away. I'm a self assured kind of guy however I wouldn't mess with Mark if he was chained to a railroad track and I was driving the locomotive. Luckily for the intruder he chose option B. Peace! (and I will throw in a happy Mothers day just on a hunch)

@ladydriver0_0 Ай бұрын

@@mchelena1 Wow, you really took that to another level and out of context. I imagine full well that Mark could have "taken care" of the person if needs be. You seem a little triggered by a perceived insult against your hero. Being gracious in the moment is not a shortcoming for a manly man.

I remember the first time I saw you using that conrtraption to flip your sheep and trim their nails and thinking DANG that is an amazing piece of kit that helps you handle a job easy and fast with as little trauma to the animal as possible....the sheep seem pretty unbothered when they get out. I love that someone created that to fill a need and it works SO well. Awesome!

Me too, the hooves up for trimming I thought was pure genius. I was happy when Sandi switched to the power trimmers. I would watch her uses the manual ones and my hands would ache in sympathy. She's one smart lady, and keeps working smarter. 😉👍

Temple Grandin invented the hug machine when she observed that cows were calm in the squeeze chute. I assume it’s the same for sheep, with a mani/pedi to top it off. A lot of people feel better after a hug. Why not sheep as well. 🐑💙

You and Mark share enough of your lives with your fans. You are perfectly within the bounds of hospitality not to want randos showing up at your house. You aren’t a public landmark or a national monument. How rude! I know what you mean with your books. You get so engrossed with the series, when you look up and blink, it takes a minute to work out where you are. Some of my favourites are 30+ books, you read all those and you forget what reality you’re in 😂 You aren’t as old as me, do you know the old cartoon character Betty Boop? With Jessie’s short curlies she reminded me so much of Betty! So cute!

Happy mothers Day, Sandi, I feel your pain as I have a terminally ill daughter. I just wanted to say what an amazing job you did of supporting Jess as she went thru all that. You listened when she needed to talk, you held her when she was feeling weak. On this day, let's just take a moment and add that as well as being our favorite Shepardess you are also an amazing mom to Jack and Jess ❤ I'm sorry someone felt it was ok to show up at your house.

Oh, Sandi, that is so funny. I was raising 4 children on our 100 acre farm, and every once in a while I was asked to hop on a tractor and disk the field, or help plant. And if I hadn't been on the tractor for a year, (we had three tractors), it would take me a while to get acclimated, and my husband didn't understand why I couldn't just get on and do it. This Sandy at 81, enjoys your videos, and just as you felt the people in the book were like family, that is what happens when one follows videos. I am also watching Cammie, but I can't understand much. Delete the videos of people who are negative.
