Sleepy still but have to meet a bunny transporter here in an hour or so. Then we have electric judging this afternoon and and SB practice. And squeeze in cleaning rabbit cages as tomorrow is more 4H judging and RAIN.... sigh.
Horse and pony part 1 went very well. All 3 kids had a blast, only DD1 showed. But now DS wants to too. DD1 was also invited to play on an ALL Star SB team... of course we'll let her. IMG_6800.JPG

@Baymule I suppose lot of it has to do with a mother who was so wrapped up in herself that we weren't allowed to do any extra curriculars except 4H and then many times we were on our own for educating ourselves on projects.
Am grateful for the opportunities I have to teach and guide my kids.

Forgot still had cookies to bake for DD1 project... so the cages still need cleaned. Guess they'll have to be done tomorrow rain or not. SB practice got cancelled so staying home and relaxing...well trying.

Good for you, Bay! I slept until my internal clock and the rooster on my porch said awaken! Up shortly after, soon as I got my bearings. Then, whoa....don't move until the back gets stretched out! After a few minutes of dangling upside down and rotation in rythm to the sharp spurting pain of cramped muscles, I stumbled to the kitchen and pushed the buttons on the coffee pot. That rascal has an auto timer to start, need to find directions again. :lol: I'll feel like I have ghost partner then!

After coffee and a look at BYH I headed out. Looked at some of today's rework on some old fence...it's everywhere!...and listened to hens and chicks talking. Some of the does were pretty vocal this morning, in response to kids hollering for them. Noisy morning! Opened coops and see that "something" came out from under the one....stuck hose back in and flooded again! I will win this. 🤬

Then decided to weed eat what I could, then recharge batteries while I worked other stuff. Only bad thing with this type...batteries and power. So, an hour got done. Have a spark plug to switch out in tiller. Load some wire to take to my "construction site" to cover my board fence with wire to keep goat kids in/out....they are SO, SO adept at this. I've watched them scoot under a board to shoulders, then lay on their side, then use legs like they are running to push/pull selves under! Boggles your mind!! They get thru places you would bet a weeks pay it couldn't. :oops::idunno

My hydrate break is over. Back at it!

Lunch break. 4H judging is finished for non livestock projects. We have tractor driving Monday, Rabbits Tuesday and 2nd day of Horse and Pony on Wednesday. Need to get outside and clean those rabbit cages. Then if the rain doesn't restart SB game tonight.
