Coffee anyone ?

[Mini Horses]

Saturday goat auction....need to take 3 young bucklings. Not really wanting to deal with catching this AM. Usually have them penned and trailer backed to load. Didn't get all that done yesterday. . It'll be a toss up now.. Maybe more coffee will help to encourage me!! . Maybe just the oldest one annoying me will work.....to be continued.

Coffee is strong and hot...sun is bright...temps are not. Only 57 out, they say mid 60 may happen. Norm is 75 this time of year. Jacket for today. Cool all weekend, back to normal for week ahead. That time of year...dress in layers.

Better get moving and see if catches happen.

Bucklings having NO part of leaving farm . Next month pen night before....as normally do.

WOW...35 outside! Didn't see that coming. More like 40 predicted. Neither welcome this early in the fall/winter season. Suck it up time? Nawh. More 70s coming just a cool front for a couple days. Brrr. 66 inside. Oven meals today thankfully hot coffee is ready.

I'd turned my alarm off but, body didn't agree...woke anyway. Now I'm waiting for daylight. Boring!

Good morning! Coffee is ready. I might’ve over done myself the last 2 days. I use the step counter on my phone to see how far I’ve walked that day. Friday-1 mile. Kinda proud of myself. Saturday, yesterday, 1 1/2 miles. Wasn’t trying to, just did. BUT I sat outside yesterday morning for hours, mostly on my Walker seat. My knee stayed bent in a “normal “ position. I was up and down, but no leg elevated and propped up. I’m not too proud of myself anymore…….. LOL
I’ve done my morning exercises and massaged leg with Arnicare. In recliner, feet up. Coffee is good.
Hahaha, Anatolians rushed the fence. A beautiful red Brahma heifer was at the fence just across driveway and they saw her as a threat.

A cool start here today. Colder than yesterday. Watched part of a Horse show yesterday. Oddly just made me think I should be showing my horses.

and the bees need to be wrapped for the winter-that means an extra super with food for them, so I'll be spending some quality time in my bee suit...if it ever stops raining.

I should've done a full inspection when I got home. It still needs done but waiting for the rare cold and windy weather to get better/back to normal.

Just keep that little scooter close. You can always sit when you want and keep you from ending up having to walk back after being give our. At least your not swimming ...... halfway there uh oh that's to far.

The 4-wheeler walker with the seat is my outside git-around. Footing is too unsteady with rocky driveway, lumps and bumps in the dirt and remnant chunks of tree branches from cutting down those dead trees.

The Unatolian? Has anyone seen an Anatolian with a coat like this? I’ve begun to call her the Afghan on steroids. Maybe cross breeding accounts for her unguardian like behavior. She was purchased as a thoroughbred by someone with no experience, from a retail pet store. I got her a a rescue. I haven’t found any connection between Afghan hounds and Anatolians. I know there are about six varieties of dogs from Turkey. Some are LGDs, some aren’t. But I haven’t seen anything that resembles her. Just musing.

It would be interesting to send in a blood sample for DNA type. That girl should be on a shampoo commercial! LOL

Phew - just got back from getting the truck and trailer (IA to OK to home). Truck drives great - Ford Ranger, trailer is almost the same color (sheer luck) Calico. But OMG like @Ridgetop said ga$$$. Started at 3.29 in MO, then 3.40+ through TX and OK, then 4.45 in AZ and 6.05 in CA. Filled up at the last AZ gas station before CA, topped off about 2 hours from home in CA because the price is only climbing. We'll have to get gas at the rez - they've always got the best price around here.
All that said - driving through what I call the breadbasket of the US - a lot of corn still in the fields. You know - city kids - they have NO IDEA of what this country is. It would be nice if they could go out and experience real country. Somehow - so they don't think their veggies are direct from the Jolly Green Giant and their burgers are more than something wrapped in paper from Micky D, or BK or whatever.
We are driven by city people. Many of whom have never seen even a chicken up close, let alone cattle, or corn fields and combines.
Just sayin'
