Staying Busy

Woke up to horizontal snow and I'd say some serious wind chills. It's so hard to crawl out of a nice warm bed to feed horses in below zero wind chills.

I am struggling with doing pretty much everything at Borderlands right now. Work has taken me away from doing anything more than minimal chores. I'm not sure when I'll be able to relax.

Besides stressful work, we're all still dealing with winter. Sort of feels like we can't catch a break. Whenever the snow stops falling, we fall into sub zero temps. We did get a January thaw so I'm thankful for that. But now I have to watch my step and make sure I dont' fall on the ice. Dude has already dealt with the ice a couple of times. Dude slipping on the ice doesn't help with his bad hip.

Add work, a super long/bad winter, and planning a wedding to the mix there doesn't leave much time for anything else. I still don't have anything except the location and dress figured out. Everything else is still up in the air.

But that's not all! Silly me, I'm trying to squeeze in setting up some trail rides for our new saddle club, the Minnehaha County Saddle Club. It's not going well so far but I guess it's a young club so there will definately be growing pains.

So that's why there haven't been any good posts lately. I'm experimenting with Jimmy and his grain to see if I can't get him interested in food. I still haven't gotten Brego to the trainer, although the trainer called on Saturday to say he got his trailer dug out and could pick him up. Problem was, I was in Madison at the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Banquet. So much for that idea. I still need to put Longhorn down. And I have a ton of phone calls to make. Never ending. So if you don't see me for awhile, it's not that I don't have stories to tell, it's that I'm too exhausted to do anything but fall asleep on the couch after a long day.
