No Rest for the Wicked !!

Nosey !!...

Zanubis ....

Another job...crossed off the list....

So much so for a day off.....

Today, I decided to crack on and muck the barn out. It has needed done for a little while.

Although I use the tractor...thankfully it does most of the heavy lifting. I still have to take down the divides....move one or two large gates....and move several pallets...which I use for partitions.....this usually takes a couple of hours...by the time I put all the muck tines on and open.....several gates....close several gates...to stop the horses escaping...and then....I have to clean the barn out.....and put it all back together...then bed them all up....

I started at 1pm and I have been on all afternoon, I have just finished at 5pm.....It takes ages to tie...and untie all the binder twine.....

So tonight I have a nice clean barn, I know the alpacas will appreciate it when they come in. The weather has been much cooler today, mind you we haven't had the torrential rain yet !

Now I have this job crossed off the list....I think I'm up to date, so I can have a bit of a rest.

Just keeping one eye on the weather.....how come the forecasts...always get the cloud/rain right, but never seem to have the same accuracy with the sunshine !!

The nights are getting much darker.....so much quicker.....which can only mean one thing.....the seasons are changing.....and it won't be long till my lovely little Swallow friends leave me once again, for warmer climes....!!

I have the fire on tonight, as it is cooler this evening......I'm off for a nice long hot shower......I think I deserve it !!
