I am still Alive

I bet you all thought that I gave up on blogging.  No, I haven't it just has been one of those things that school and weaving and of course the farm has taken a lot of my time and I find that I don't want to spend hours at the computer.  When I am done for the day I really am too tired to do much of anything.  

The livestock are doing good so far, no big issues.  All except a week ago I brought the horses in the barn for the night and the boys happened to see one of the lights on in the barn and went to shut off the light and they walk in and what do they do? Step in horse __it!  Turned the down stairs lights on and there is Annie roaming around the barn, someone, (we won't mention who) must of forgot to shut the stall door the right way!  She got out and the feed bin lid was off and she was a munching away at the hay in the other stall.  I don't think she ate the grain much because the level of the bin was pretty much the same.  She didn't colic and her feet are good so, that was a good sign!  Now we double check the latches!!!

The weather has been holding out pretty good so far, no snow and the daytime as been in the forties or fifties most of the time and at night down in the thirties.  I like that real well, but we all know that is not going to last.

School has been going great, my brain has finally started functioning good.  I have only two weeks left and this semester will be done and hopefully I will have no finals to do.  Then a good month off!!!   I just hope my brain stays in the school mode until I go back. 

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Well thanks for checking in. Sounds like lots of busyness. Good thing that the loose horses didn't cause some serious problems...mostly for them. And it's better to step in horse doody than dog doody. ewww!

I'm glad your weather is staying nice. It's currently snowing here in NM...only about 3", but supposed to get up to foot before the weekend's over.
