Coffee anyone ?

I'm taking a leisurely morning, been on SS and TEG. Hope all goes well on the crown, teeth are expensive to fix. If Ritchie has an abscess, it will smell and have an odor. I've only had to deal with an abscess one time, a mare had one blow out at the coronet band. It smelled bad a couple of weeks before it blew. I had to stall her and treat it daily with betadine. She sure hated it and would curl her hoof up under her so I couldn't squirt the betadine on the sore.

Coffee is ready! It is between drizzle and a misty rain. Weatherman called a mizzle,LOL. Rain is clearing out, total we got 1 1/2”. Maybe we’ll do that big burn pile Friday or Saturday.

Thanks @Baymule
Girls picked more tomatoes, going to make some sun dried today. Would like to make some BBQ sauce but that might not happen this week.
Didn't get the crown on, decided to wait a couple more weeks as I still have a sensitive spot with the temporary crown. DH got more hay down while ds and I finished plaster in another room. Sold a bunny too.

Upper 40s here this morning. Fall has arrived!!

Coffee is hot & warming me. Dew heavy....so water everywhere when you walk.

Little work at two stores this morning. Will do while things dry off some. May get a couple hrs outside late afternoon. Will make a feed stop while out so at least that will need unloading. Then?? Depends on time. Last 2 weeks slack & home a lot. This & next everyone needs me! Feast or famine. Get it while I can as winter is very slow for work.

Woohoo!

They just cut 12 acres of corn directly next to me. I will walk it to look for any drops. Do this every year and always get a couple miles of a good walk -- not much else!

But will do it anyway. . Tradition. Exercise is a good thing.

Exercise is a good thing.

Yep - and some free corn would be a great thing!

Coffee is on. Co-op and meeting a bunny transporter. Then to the farm, we'll start baling after DH gets off work.

Bunny transporter. That makes me laugh. I am easily amused this morning. Thanks for the coffee, it sure is good this morning. It is cool outside, next week is projected to be in the 40's at night. I need to saddle up and ride, but it seems we have so much to do! It's been rainy all week, next week it will be sunny, so maybe I'll go riding.

Go ride Bay!
I ditched work all week . I'm calling it my vacation...
Camped Monday night, so Mon. and Tues. were shot for work. Wednesday is Kid#2 day and I could have hustled to work and been back by the time he gets here, but I was strong and just said no, lol.
Today and tomorrow is rain, although right now there's a lot of blue sky so I'm hitching the trailer and bugging out with Syringa.
Next week I'll be good and start the heavy fall cleanup, but right now I'm enjoying hooky.
Made cinnamon rolls yesterday and there's one left if y'all want to armwrestle for it. Thanks for the coffee!

I've worked all week but, slacked some days to accommodate my own feelings about it!

this is it for now. Up at 4 -- yeah, it happens. So catching up on posts. That's nice.

Before going to work yesterday I just had to check the corn field. Weather this summer hit hard with no rain when needed, extreme heat, then too much rain. Parts didn't form full cob, some full cob but kernels didn't fill. Feel badly for farmers but, the equipment tossed a good amount of those cobs with only. 2-3 inch of fill. So there will still be a lot of walking but more results. The deer will be all over it -- as well as the young regrowth this fall. Every mouse in the county will eat well and reproduce in spades!!!! Still won't be much pickup worth the effort for me......just something I will do. A Fall tradition.

We have scattered showers today. I can deal as it has been dryer most of week...plus I'm working. The goats can graze & race to their barn if it happens to fall from the sky.

Some of the young pullets bought 2 weeks ago have begun to lay. Appreciate that! Won't be long for all of them to get busy. Decent egg size, too. They will be large ones before long. Calm bunch of girls -- all positives. My customers will be happy this winter....me, too....it pays their feed bill.
