So....did anyone else see the CDC report that came out that said 94% of covid deaths had underlying conditions while less than 10,000 people have died from covid alone??
I lost my business partner and great friend yesterday while we were moving cows. Please till someone you love them today and remember that ag is one of the toughest industries that we can be a part of. But it’s also the strongest people I have ever met❤️
I’m going to blame this one on the article that came out yesterday naming agriculture as the most dangerous job. Things can happen in a second and even though we try and be aware and safe as we can-it still can happen. Fortunately, this could have been so much worse. Thanks
Received a phone call from my doctor this morning about some cancer tests. He goes do you have a minute? My stomach dropped. He goes your tests came back benign but I wanted to talk to you about ordering some beef.

Thank you for all the kind words from all over the world on the last tweet…we are going to keep doing what we have been doing for the last 135 years and that’s taking care of the livestock and environment (all the way down to the insects that need to bum a ride):)
How do you know you are a rancher? When you have a Governors Ball to attend, and the only way you are going to survive heels is to wear knee braces under your dress😂😂
A week ago I was on the worst flight I’ve ever been. Not quite a news story but it felt close to one. I had a flight booked into Denver yesterday and I thought I was okay until I stepped foot into the airport and I froze. It took every ounce of courage I could find to get on
Since I’m fighting the mRNA false media battle Daily with another Beef company…going to start our own advertising campaign based off of X today. We don’t feed net wrap and never will. With
#flyingdiamondbeef
we have made the commitment to never ever feed our cattle net wrap as
Christmas Eve day- both dad and I have been out checking cattle/feeding. Neighbor lady called and said to swing by- she had cooked a full meal complete with dessert to take home to my parents. ❤️ rural NE!
I’m so excited that the
@POTUS
is doing such great things for our country. I can’t afford lumber, fuel, steel, equipment now-but not to worry at least if you put me out of business too-I can sit on a beach and pull unemployment.

Cattle marketer stops by the ranch- makes two minute small talk then asks if mom or dad were around. I just smiled sweetly and said no. If you don’t know who’s doing all the marketing and cattle decisions-probably going to be tough to get MY business .
So....guess who got suspended for 12 hours today while hosting ag of the world??? Evidently you CAN NOT tell someone how to catch a calf off an ATV.

Took a load of bulls to the sale barn this morning- I usually just drop off and make the turn home as fast as I can to get back to work. This morning I ran into an older cattleman that I’ve known for years and sat and visited for a hour. It was a great reminder and one I seem
Airplane bound for Portland, lady next to me asks if I’m in fitness… no ma’am I’m a cattle rancher. Then I thought about the 25 calves I pasture tagged this morning before heading to the airport…
Somedays you do what you can and then you have to wait it out…starting to warm up -38, still a total whiteout. All the roads that we spent last week opening are covered again🤦♀️
Does anyone else start to lose respect for someone that post political posts all day? Like hey Karen alcohol, garlic and cupcakes are just fine in moderation-maybe your opinion is too.
When a world renowned photographer spends time out at the ranch and asks what he can give you in return...and your response is can you just take a photo of the Boss Man and I? Thank you Joel for catching the ‘real’ us.

Made my first stop at this TX gem before heading back north. After 30+ years of hand me down saddles which I have always loved- I’m sure going to enjoy breaking this one in

. If you haven’t been, the store and staff were stellar!
My brother sent me a check for my birthday....In the memo it said for ‘hip replacement and depends’ Anyone else know what happened to the midde finger emoji???
This visitor to the ranch from China had never been on a horse…we remedied that, the thank yous and hugs would not stop😂. We so often take for granted how the tiniest things can impact someone’s life.
Well I guess the cat’s out of the bag. To say 2024 will look a little different will be an understatement-can’t thank the crew and the Boss Man for their support and backing in this-very excited for what’s to come.
One thing I have learned this last year- I do not trust anything the media including social media says. Everything is spun 27 years till Sunday. Step away from it all... go read a book or hang out with your family you won’t regret it!
If someone asked me what the ‘greatest’ accomplishment in my life is... it’d be that the Boss Man and I are best friends. Not very many daughters can say their dad is their business partner and friend especially in this industry.

Governor’s Ball part 2. Stopping en route on the way home to pick up a load of fats…I mean it is the Beef State right? Disclaimer I did not take the trailer to the ball thanks to Uber😂
I’ve been in church for as long as I can remember, but this year I committed to reading the entire bible-22 days in and I feel like Ive got a better grasp than the last 30+ years.
Learned an important lesson this morning… standing in the coffee line and introduced myself to a gentleman from the European Vegetarian Union. He asked what I do. I said I’m a cattle rancher from the US. Next time I will say I’m a second-hand vegetarian.
Could use some prayers-having hip surgery in the morning. Last time I was under the influence of medical drugs it took two of them to get me to the pickup as I was busy singing Elvis. Please don’t let this be repeated…
How come all these female ‘cowgirls’ on IG don’t have barbwire tears, worn gloves with the fingers ripped out from welding, or cow $hit stains?

So let me get this straight, tx is tired of getting overran by individuals from other countries, so they decide to try and do something about it, and then the feds take them to court for trying to protect their own border, and the rest of the US? The immigration issue alone
