Another rainy day but I don’t mind it. Despite the past week of rain, we still need it. The grass is finally starting to green up again, and I don’t have to worry about hooking the sprinkler up for the garden. The pigs love the rain, their whole pen is a gigantic mudpit that they’ve been rooting up and rolling around in. The sheep and chickens are another matter. Even though they have shelter to escape the rain, they still end up wet and raggedy looking. The chickens have made their way up to the house, having found the bird feeders. They’ve taken over the driveway, which now makes walking out to the truck an exercise in poo-dodging.
Today I’ll catch up on indoor chores and maybe run a few errands. I have a small list going, and hope to cross them all off today. I work all weekend, which means I’ll be useless from Friday afternoon until Monday evening. I don’t ever want to work nights again. Too much time is lost to being tired.
