Coffee anyone ?

I am slowly adjusting to the clock change. I didn't put new batteries in my wall clock as I generally do for forward/back, as it's only been 3+ months.

I did go outside and work in the yard after I got home, it's a small blessing.

Weeded one of my raised beds, gave the flock the results. Lots of excitement!

I'm up. It's dark. Coffee is . Slept well for 6 hr straight. Should be good for today -- gotta go to work.

Yesterday was beeeeautiful here. Upper 60s, sunshine, light breeze, just perfect. I reset my jobs and stayed home! Went for a load of hay. Walked the farm and need to mow, dig, get up fence that's in rolls now. This coming week has heavy hrs but the next, maybe can get by with 3-4 days at home. Still need to get some seed in starter cups. Tomato, pepper, etc. weekend supposed to be 70s and some rains sun night into Mon. It's a plan.

I don’t remember alarm going off. Yesterday I slaughtered 10 chickens, hand plucked. They are on ice, I’ll process this afternoon. Going to sheriff’s breakfast this morning. Meeting a friend at 8:00, then going to his house to give my opinion on his sheep being pregnant. Same friend that I helped him tape and float sheetrock. I get to see his barndominium all completed and they are moved in. Most importantly, I’m picking up his chicken plucker!! He’s about a week behind me on processing chickens. I’ll finish up end of April, he’ll start first of May.

Coffee is ready, going for second cup. Then I’ve got 10 chickens on ice to process. I picked up the chicken plucker from my friend yesterday. Garbage pickup is on Fridays, so my butcher days will be Wednesday and/or Thursday.

My county has no trash pickup There is a dump site (all containerized set up) only 3 miles away -- and I have little to add. Once a week or so, I stop on way to work with a bag.

Coffee going on, it's dark with DST but that's ok for me because I rarely want to do chores with coffee in hand. Rather have extra light at late day. Need to grab something for breakfast. Work today, then off weekend & home a couple days next week. Rain Sun evening & Monday -- I'll work Monday -- can't do much here, so earn some $$.

Light coming, I'll get a refill, outside shortly. Had a doe with tight tears yesterday, looking for kids, today maybe. She's last one, I think.
