Coffee anyone ?

[Mini Horses]

About the same here....Frost this morning and a coolish mid 40s later.

Yeah, predicting low 70 on Christmas! I DO NOT need a white Christmas.

Delightful coffee right now. Have an eye exam later this morn. Getting end of year payouts on my insurance. Plus I have the time in winter....I'll get a couple bags of feed on way home. Really been lazing around all weekend.

Picked up 14 year old and her friend last night, carried sleepy little girls to bed. Inspector coming this morning, it should be chaos and bedlam.

Inspector had his 9 year old granddaughter with him, she just joined the fun. Inspection went great, buyers came and took pictures. They are so excited.

Coffee is on! Cold, damp penetrating cold here. Been keeping the kids inside mostly. They always seem to have snotty noses, reminds me of cows. Cows always have slimy noses. At least cows never have boogers. Watch how cows lick their noses. That long tongue goes right up each nostril. No way a booger could hang out in a cow’s nose! Boy, if children had that capability, it would put Kleenex out of business!

Beyond those days with my DGD...she's at working and buying cars. Kleenex was cheaper! . Enjoy now. As you know, they drift away for a while, returning with age.

Rains coming later...overcast now. Going to work today...easy stuff, half day? Then nothing for a week or so.....just home time. Love it. Found a farm with some good P-nut hay, so going for some. Probably Thurs? . No hurry but, goats will love me for it!

Next "project" I hope to tackle is cleaning an rebeding goat barn.....then, rebed the stalls in main barn. Need some non rain and wind days. Several in a row. Wonder who stored stuff in that barn!?

We're lucky to get two eggs a day, with twelve laying age chickens and eight laying age ducks. Those are really expensive eggs!

19 laying hens, 6 pullets that are now 28 weeks old. On a good day I get 1 egg from Nina (Black Australorp. She's been laying about a month) and 1 from Vienna, 3.5 Y/O Barred Rock. Not sure why she started back up this time of year but not complaining. The other 5 pullets are SLACKERS! Looks like Ineg (Black Australorp) might be getting red enough to lay. Still waiting on the Wyandottes and Ameraucanas.

Boy, if children had that capability, it would put Kleenex out of business!

Only 3 days til Christmas! Hope you're all ready. Here, we no longer exchange gifts. Yep, we all decided a few yrs back that it just wasn't needed. After all, we are beyond needing, so dinner together. Only DGD at 19 and I'll be 76 soon, DS 55 and DD will be 52 in a couple months. Sure stops any stress. . Works for us!

Overcast today. Fresh coffee is nice, have some....full pot waiting. Slept late and no guilt! . Damp out from rains yesterday but temps are good. I have nothing pressing me into action, unusual. Wow....this is quite relaxing.

I wake up every 30 minutes in a bit of a panic. Am I crazy? I just want to sleep!
