Coffee anyone ?

[Mini Horses]

Having that coffee now, Bay! It's gonna be a nice one here, sunny and mid 70s eventually! These brisk mornings are nice, once you accept "they're here". Soon we'll have beautiful leaf color. Then pictures of snow from Alaskan!

Rode the tractor most of yesterday....perfect weather.

Thanks @Baymule
Finally feels like a day or week to just do "normal" stuff. Laundry, house cleaning, should let the girls ride... we do have another "borrowed" pony that came over the weekend. Letting her settle in before we do too much, so far she loves the girls petting and loving her so that's great. Her pal of 14 years passed away and she was by herself, then she went to live with my friend and her ponies. She was pretty anxious over losing her pal and she's here now to see how she and Jocelyn get along and not going to rush her into riding again.
Garden is full of weeds but still some tomatoes, peppers and eggplant. Need to dig the potatoes.
Debating on sending (maybe going?) to ARBA National convention....it's about a 4 hour drive so not an impossibility.... Praying that Velveteen Lops pass!!!

I know it!!!

Hence the panic and the "HAVE we picked up everything?"

I remember once... the kids were little...

I was walking from the car to the house.... and looked down and saw a single kid sock on the ground.

I bent down to pick it up. It was welded solid to the ice. I was able to lift up about an inch of the sock.... and then it streeeeeetched... and nothing. Got to the point where clearly, it was tear that sucker in half... or leave it until spring.

Yep.... it was left until spring.

Which reminds me.....

One year it froze solid early, in a sudden single night... we woke up, and you betcha, the lawn full of kid toys... was STAYING a lawn full of kid toys until spring.

Oh my...we don't get that weather here! Which is why I'm here!!! This time of year I'm stressing over less daylight...and my area is on DST. Still dark at 6:00, or at least sufficiently so you need a light to see well. Of course, also dark earlier in evening. You just watch your daylight shrink. Not as bad as the light extremes there in Alaska but, it changes. Still, chores in the dark

Temps are good at only 61 this morning but going to mid 80s. Mid 70s rest of week. Just a couple day surge to ease you into cooler. Humidity is way down, which is nice! No heat, no AC time of year! Lower electric bill.

Back to work today. Enjoyed a few farm days. I'm not the only one with the dual life. we seem to thrive.

Good morning y'all. I woke up at 4 AM in a coughing fit. At least I can breathe better. I got boiled pot coffee and toaster waffles! LOL I think I'm getting to the point of cleaning the coffee pot. Maybe. I sold Prince last night to a family with 4 kids. They will pick him up Sunday afternoon. Got a lady coming this morning to look at Pearl. Y'all cross your fingers.

I feel that one! Dont worry about snow here in California but man... I dont like the early evenings whatsoever. I am an early bird; I can wake up early and be ready to go but, by 7pm my brain is done.

I've got my fingers crossed for you! At least with boiled coffee, the coffee pot can wait a little bit.
I hope your cough goes away soon.

Good morning.
@Baymule more to you, glad that the horses are getting good homes.
Lots of laundry to get done yet, but I did squeak in a ground driving session with our mini Naut, maybe do it again today... we REALLY should get him driving this year. Maybe work with our other mini Rayne too, as the girls are very close to being to big to keep riding her. Need a cart for her but I should have a harness to fit her.
