It's the thought and effort that is always Appreciated....even if ya have to Duck to enjoy their effort....it sure doesn't get in their way.....

No bunnies yet... more snow though...enough I need to get paths made to get my cages cleaned. Joy of winter....
Maizy is ready for dog training, starts on Monday....eventually she will start listening to John, right??
Got our taxes done.... now to decide what's the plan for our hay storage problem....might try to talk DH into a carport building.... he's leaning towards taking down our detached garage then relocating it... it needs repaired due to poor construction....not sure that's even cheaper than a pole barn when said and done we do still have some steel siding too....guess we will figure it out.

Sorry ya having to deal with that white stuff and hope the training goes well. I'd thought about getting Gabbie into some, but there aren't any that are remotely close by....so, we do the best we can with a couple of books and guideance from @Southern by choice . I'm sure with that much material to work with y'all will figure out something that will work for ya...even a 10' A frame would work and be fairly easy to construct....

Dog 4H went pretty well. Though John says it was boring. It's been an interesting week. Just haven't felt well all week have some ongoing problems which I did finally make a dr apt for but it wont' be for a couple of weeks. But Tuesday got notice I won a candlelight dinner at a local restaurant on Valentine's Day which I had to postpone (thankfully they were super nice about it) until next week as Jocelyn developed a fever that afternoon. She's now puking and Kinzey has the runs..... so yep now we have the flu at our house. Which means my busy weekend (was going to a CMO meeting I was REALLY looking forward to ) just got changed to staying home and cleaning.... even debating if I should continue baking for snacks for church on Sunday.... or tell them I can't due to the flu bugs floating around my house.
No bunnies again this week. Thought I palpated 2 does positively yesterday...today pretty sure it was Poo!
Oh and my FB page for my baked goods reached a like goal so I give away a $10 gc towards my product... the person who won wanted to argue about Indiana cottage laws and couldn't find my list. Which I just cut back to cookies and pies.... that's plenty....
oh and I told DH we need to go get more hay soon, which he's decided needs to go in my TRAILER because we can't ever drive on my pastures since it's "new" last fall..... which equals NO trail riding ANYTIME soon or even this SPRING!!!! Oh and I had a lady wanting to put down a deposit down on Rayne BUT the day before Jocelyn told me she wants to ride her.... which is fine with me... so anyways it's on the backburner for a month. sounds like a nice lady and a good home for Rayne.
surely we'll get through the weekend and things should go better, right??

I think you'd best not be sending flu virus food to the church. Sad since it would be so well received.

...Sad since it would be so well received.

That's true Bruce... IME church goers LOVE flu virus infected food!

Sorry you're dealing with all those issues at once. Seems near impossible to ever get the "needs done" or "incidental issues" lists closed out. Grats on winning the dinner. Hope you get to enjoy it (soon would be better than later). Try to get some rest so you can feel better.

It seems that it is sweeping the nation, sorry ya had to be included....wish ya a speedy recovery and an enjoyable dinner...take care of yourself an the family....

I didn’t get a notice about your post. Either way, I hope the kiddos are feeling better and that everything worked out. Praying for clarity, strength, and peace for you.

Girls are better, I haven't felt great but....oh well, trucking on. No snow just mud and rain and more rain.. horses in in knee deep mud... going to open a gate to another the pen with the barrels but it won't take long for it to become the same... photo was yesterday... it's worse today. They got hoof trims today... I lost my boot at one point...the one without the hole... so both my socks were wet and black..w
.

we did get our Valentine's day Dinner tonight. Complete with flowers and chocolates. Had portebello fries, shrimp, sweet potato fries and grilled asperagus very yummy.

That sounds amazing! I hope it was refreshing!

I know the mud feeling. The cows seem to be wading at this point with a flood warning through Friday. Yuck!
