Ok, the sun is out and our temps are actually starting to climb up :bgrin but the best part is I wasnt the clutz (sp) that I was yesterday! :bgrin It was horrible when I went to the barn in the morning- -my aisles are always clean and no clutter sitting around. So because of this darn cold snap--I put almost everyone in the barn (some stayed in the small barn) so to do that I had to clean out 2 stalls which I just use for hay/straw/bedding/ grain/buckets..and all the other needed things.
: Where did I put everything --into the aisle.
..well, it was more important to get the "kids" in where it was warmer, even if they did double up!) Not thinking I go to start feeding, I'm mixing a pail of beet pulp/grain, step back -trip over a 2nd pail of soaked beet pulp/grain mix, get myself up--get my foot caught in a hay feeder rack, down I go a second time.OUCH--I was aching! We have cement floors! Ok, get everyone fed..go to do the hay, a BIGG red stray cat, is sitting there hissing at me, :no: scared the crap out of me, wasnt expecting that--and almost went down again. :no: OK..done in the big barn! Go and grab my trusty pooper fork, a 5 gal pail of water, and a 2 gal pail of beet pulp/grain mix..I'm all set, out I go heading to the small barn, dear sweet darling hubby, Bob, was going to be nice and plowed me a path with the skidsteer, well-the NICE clean path turned into ice,
: and what did I do--yup, down I go AGAIN, only this time it was freezing cold outside, and I got a very cold bath from the water, and me--well, I looked like a piece of walking beet pulp. I REALLLLLYYYY want summer to get here! Am I the only clutzy one on the forum???? My bones are really aching today! Corinne
