Good thought...
Today I sat on the porch where DH used to love to sit, east facing, enclosed--it was his favorite room in the house.
Thinking about burning in my fire pit, then the weather report fulfilled itself, 40+mph gusts ALL afternoon. Went to church in summer clothes, 80 degrees F.
I was feeling mopey, didn't want to do ANYTHING, then decided I should fill the 100 gal horse water tank. I went out about 2:30 in a short sleeved shirt rethinking my choice what with the temperature drops. I managed to pull out the long hoses from the Carriage House/She Shed, hooked them up AAAAANNNDD one hose had a serious leak. I pulled another hose and managed to use only 2 hoses from the house--tank is now full.
That will save me feeding time.
Low of 30 tomorrow morning.
DD's cleared out the office stuff from the Dodge Ram Cummins yesterday. I was planning on driving it back to fill up gas cans. They said to bring it. As is becoming the custom, I am giving away to family. In this case, it is the 100+??? oval library table that DH had at his office and it was still in the back of the truck. Looks a Lot like this one, with a single middle drawer:

Broken hoses were dragged to the trash and picked up this morning.
Unusually high temperatures, with high winds, burned yesterday, but rain tonight. Put a bale of hay out and filled the 1/2 manger with another bale. Water tank is down 6 inches, but holding. Pulled both grain buckets by the fence out of their reach. Secured the dog poo stall rake, put a brick in the bucket where I dump it and next to the house.
Brought back the garbage pickup can to the NE corner in front of the garage. Neighbors leave theirs out and they blow over in high winds.
Had to mail to SS today. Old atty who stayed in the office mislaid my letter. It was dated March 2nd and was Supposed to be filled out and mailed back in 5 days.
THAT passed. I filled it out, took it Directly to the postman at the post office 12 miles away, where they have reasonable open hours, copied all of it, printed the letter and hand wrote that the old office had mishandled my mail and that I only received it yesterday, and to please accept it, OR remail and I would fill it out again.
These are the headaches...
