Mommy Timeout

Last night was such a beautiful night. The bugs weren't out when I went out to do chores. Unfortunately, I missed the opportunity because I'd put myself into Mommy Timeout. With all the crazy commotion, bad weather, and hectic schedule, I knew that if I didn't take a Timeout, that the rest of the week would go down hill.

So instead, I put myself in Mommy Timeout and ended up staying there the rest of the night. But after getting eight hours of somewhat interrupted sleep, I feel better and am ready to start working on the Sanctuary again. We are so far behind and with the tornado, we are even more behind.

I desperately need to get the ponies out on grass but haven't had time to set up the corral panels. I may succumb to putting up electric fence and just turning it off when my son comes out to play. I'm not sure what the hay situation is going to be like but I don't want to risk having to go in search of more hay later this year. I'd rather not be feeding hay all summer.

It's already the end of June! I've lost an entire month already! Luckily July is looking to be a little slower so maybe I can get caught up (well, not caught up but at least get started on a few projects), and feel better about not being SO FAR behind. As long as I don't have to be in too many more Mommy Timeouts, we should be starting to gear back up and get a few things done around the Sanctuary. Anyone want to help?
