Good news on the septic and how convenient to have an RV dump station right at home!
Gotta take care of the horse, I'm sure you'll figure out how to get him back to health.

Ran this weekend to Menards. Got some lumber to fix our current hay shed here at our place, and to make a canoe stand. Also got a new water tank for the farmhouse. Had a nice quiet do nothing Sunday afternoon. :) Need to get the pool and camper winterized this week. Was hoping to go camping in another week but the furnace in the camper isn't working. Just going to winterize it for now and deal with it next year. Still waiting for an estimate on the horse barn... the more I think about it the less I want my Mom involved. but at this time it's not possible for us to get moved over there as it sits. And her junk fills the downstairs... but she has company coming so has zero plans of getting it out anytime soon. Oh well. Might go trail riding again this week. Right now I need to go out and get the yard mowed again...

So got the dumpster filled last night. We worked about 2 hours picking up junk where the septic was put in. They dug up (and probably broke) a lot of glass that had been buried? there. Plus old drainage tile, concrete, nails... fun stuff. We did find one interesting stone. 74396260_10218461614705394_22690312224768_n.jpg :D =D
I also gave away some rugs (per Mom's permission) to a friend who could use them. A big piece of carpet was supposed to be picked up last night so I left it on the porch, I hope it's gone! @Bruce we may have to do that... IDK she refused to do that last year with moving... sad thing is most the stuff has been boxed up for 2 years... DH says if they go on an extended vacation as they talked that they may come home to no parking left in her garage... She has enough to fill a LARGE storage garage to the top. :hu I'm really trying to be patient with her as now she's back in my life...probably long term. But she's clueless that her actions do affect others, she keeps telling me that nothing has changed... and in her mind it hasn't. I don't think she'll ever realize the pain she causes. Because the crux of it is that I am sincerely hurt that she threw our plans out the window... and she is blind to that. :( I guess she never considered me and my sisters much when we were at home, so why did I expect a change?
But my solace was to get out on the trails with friends on Wednesday. :) One needed to borrow a horse so I rode Mom's old guy Chase. He did well for having had a year off. 73075683_10218461324698144_6515569278995922944_n.jpg 72455205_10218461323658118_1315386334864474112_n.jpg 73273344_10218461326458188_2861849636899913728_n.jpg the trees are starting to change colors. And I just booked a weekend of horse camping for next weekend!!!!:weee

The Polish litter is growing well, no other litters... but it's fall so out of season. 72791340_2927596007268204_6576477086393827328_n.jpg
