Coffee anyone ?

[fuzzi]

Finally rolled out of bed about 5:30am, "rolled" being the descriptive term! I did some activities yesterday that weren't difficult but must have used lazy muscles. It's eased out, and I am sipping coffee while last night's load of clothes is tumbling.

Making "To Do" list for the day. We may get another Arctic Blast on Thursday, so I think I will cover my newly-planted peas etc. with some plastic I have on hand.

I'm up, not excited about it -- slow wake but slept several hrs straight things will improve. It's rain again today & tomorrow. Looking at my areas "poss heavy snow" for Wed/Thur no! Please, no! I'm on the dividing line of two predictions. So, rain, mix, snow. Do not need any of it!!!!! We're wet enough. But I also have 55 hrs of work scheduled that doesn't work if we get 6" of snow & our area becomes totally "disabled". Sooooo, I'm looking at just how much work I can get done between now & Tues -- in case I'm snowed in. Plus be sure there's hay & feed stocked for several days. It's gonna be cold, so even if rain there's freeze and icey roads. wish I could change channels & reprogram it.

Ahhh, well -- . Same weather @fuzzi is saying.

Meanwhile, trying a flavored coffee I was gifted. Not impressed, wouldn't buy. It's good but flavor isn't prominent enough IMO -- almost just reg coffee. Hmm. Good enough to drink, just disappointing for expectation. Need to get chores done, then go to a long day of work

I woke up at 3, went back to sleep until 6:30. It rained last night, judging by the puddles. I’ve got to take truck to town today and get cinder blocks so I can wrap coop in a tarp, and put the cinder blocks on it to hold it down. Going to be 17F Thursday morning. I pick up chicks Thursday but it will be 25 Thursday night. Rainy drizzle today, sunshine Sunday and Monday. I’ll get the coop ready except for feed.

Was awakened by a scam call at 6:15 a. The shrub on the other end got the full Vladina, angry Slovkian treatment complete with fairly authentic profanity. Amazing that I hold a technological marvel in my hand and use it to look up foul language in other languages. I use it for other things obviously so I suppose it levels out. Just don’t call me at 6am to hustle some non existent benefits. On the bright side I didn’t need coffee. Multiple 4 seasons days ahead. From 70 degrees to 17 and windy. And I’d just put away the long underwear.

Trying to prepare for another week of bitter cold temperatures. How long til spring??

 

[Muddy75]

For here it starts Memorial Day.

Memorial Day is usually the start of summer here. Just never know how much “spring” we will have. It could start in March or it could wait til May

 

[Baymule]

Here spring starts immediately after February.

Coffee is ready! It’s 37 and windy.

 

[Mini Horses]

Same here, March heralds "spring". We just don't always get the same one

But I'm just looking forward to it anyway!!!

6:30 and just getting light. Roos are announcing it . Usual stuff going on -- hot coffee, bottles warming, heading out for chores soon. Balmy 58 put but wet grounds and more rain most all day, along with a lot of wind. Some days you just can't win.
