It's Saturday. I didn't do very much today, just the usual horse chores plus some mowing and moving of debris.
I'm really not going to start my horses program until Monday. I needed time to get everything into working order and organized, and they needed time to rest and get comfortable in their new surroundings.
Yesterday, my landlady and I went into Ocala to the farmers market and to get feed, (for her, I brought my own). We
also stopped into one of the thrift stores and I purchased a numbered print for the tea room in the cottage. Sometimes you just get lucky.
When we got home I unloaded her feed, made and ate some soup, filled out a birthday card for my brother, (which I mailed today), and went back out to work.
As usual, I picked up poo in the playground...I figure in about three more weeks I'll have it all gone. I then just did general work, all of which consists of digging, raking or lifting so my right arm is beginning to get sore. I'm going to give it a rest this weekend.
In the next few weeks, I'm going to try to make a drag out of the wire, boards, and concrete blocks my landlady has laying around. It'll help the sand to be more level.
I dug out some waist high weeds along the paddock fence line and then mowed between paddocks #1 & 2 today. I also mowed and cleaned up yard debris on the north side of her house.
It's beginning to look better around here.
Of course I'm at the library in order to post here, so after I get home and have lunch I'm going to clean house and do some laundry.
Gosh, what in the world am I gonna do tomorrow?! Hehe, I guess I'd better rest!
A good weekend to all you followers, whoever you are. :)
Holy smokes girl, you are working HARD!!! I had no idea you had to do so much before you could even start playing with your horses :/ At least you are settling in, and hopefully getting things straightened up enough to live with.. hahaha...
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you, and follow you and your blog as often as I can.. You are inspiring me to possibly create a blog for my own cross country adventure.. hahaha we'll see how that goes.. but maybe.
I look forward to reading about your Monday and Tuesday. I have a guys and dolls golf tournament tomorrow and I'm sick with some danged head cold of some sort.. not out, but just not up to par.. I do not like to be sick.
Hugs to you!!
