My sister in law is doing good. We had a nice visit yesterday. Still at my daughter's. Will be heading home a little later today. Have a few errands to run, while in a larger town. Enjoyed my time with them, as always.
Time for tea and should also clean up my act...aka, shower...lol

Have a lovely day all!

Ah - it's Forecast Frenzy here. It's going to rain, it's going to pour, FLOOD WATCH, run for your lives, buy all the bread you can.
OMG -- the media and the wanna be weathermen, weather aps -- all are running around like Chicken Little (giving CL a bad name). It's cloudy, there were drippy drop marks on the ground. I stupidly paid attention to the frenzy and thought - it's going to pour soon - and kept the sheep in the barn gave them their alfalfa and pumpkins. Rain gauge is wet, guessing 1/10 inch??? not even close to any of the marks on it.
So it will probably rain, things will get wet, people will be stupid and media will play it up even if they have to have someone with a hose standing over them.
On the plus side - in the rush to go feed sheep before the skies opened up (they have opened to blue sky now) I took Sage and Lumen (she's the will be 13 in a few days) with me. Lumen had a great time. She is still the powerhouse dog she was in her younger years - though the moves are in her mind and she will fall over trying (LOL and she did - but she's very happy).

I didn't know whether to love about your dogs, laugh at the weather forecasting or cry at the lack of rain! So here's all 3,

Hope you get some rain soon and your dog continues to believe she's a powerhouse!

I was talking to one of Mother's friends yesterday. She's 94. (Mother turned 95 this past Monday).

Anywho, I was telling her about my volunteer job at the Food bank. She said "but it rains up there!!" (She's in San Jose CA). I said yes. She said "you go out in the rain and get wet?". Yes, I said. She was shocked.

Busy morning cleaning up the utility room. I store vet stuff for three species, dog and chicken chow in there. I have an over the door shoe pocket storage for tools and odds and ends. Animals seem to require a lot of gear.

I have noticed that too! It has gotten to the point that I no longer even believe the weather guys.

Maybe she is made of sugar... it is dangerous for sugar to get wet.

Of course!!! She's listened to the media hype batten down the hatches, stock up on tp, etc.
Granted it's going to rain and people will be crazy stupid here in jolly ol' CA - add in hype and boom.

Took a long walk on farm today, one side. Tomorrow, other side. Have some trees to trim back, limbs blown down to cut up....pastures to cut. Writing notes as I go so I can plan next 2-3 weeks of farm work. Huge amount of leaves in lower fields. Thinking to put grass catchers on mower and bag some up for coops....once I trim up some areas, I'll take the goats for a couple hrs of browse clean up. It's in need!! I've not taken care of some things gotta get back to it.

I did get everyone fed before dark. Been working to move chore times after the darned time change. Annoying, annoying! Just screws me up. I'm used to only a couple hrs in, then it's bedtime Now there's 4-5 hrs to fill wasted.

My weather was very cold couple days, now almost seasonally normal. Very nice! Warm all weekend. If I didn't check phone I wouldn't know day of week I was in

That was your first mistake, lol. Never look for work - work will always find you!
