I'm 90 pages behind!
I wanted to weed wack and mow my yard and garden today as soon as the grass was dry. Picked okra, started a load of laundry, let out the ducks and chickens and unloaded th dishwasher when hubby comes in and asks "are you tied down on plans today?" It was just 9:30 am.
He and BIL had gone to our pasture in Prague (30 minutes away) to check the herd and noticed the bull had a swollen eye. They came back for the trailer so we could go get him.
I called the vet because the way they described the eye I knew it was more than I could handle. Got an appt for 1 pm.
Fortunately the bull had come to the front pasture to be with the cows and that is close to the loading pen....saved us from driving him on foot from the upper pond.
We get home at 11:30am. I threw together tuna sandwiches, cottage cheese and home canned peaches and home made chunky applesauce for lunch.
Drove to Prague for our vet appt and the eye has to be removed. A tree thorn in the eye had caused an infection that damaged the eye. We assisted with the surgery (learned a lot!) and had to load a drugged bull.
Finally home by 3:30pm. Bull is in the front lot with the cow and calf with the leg in a cast.

I'll get caught up in a bit. Nubby just said he is taking me to our favorite Mexican restaurant in Prague....

My applesauce has NO sugar and I make it chunky.
Can't stand any fruit in a tin can. Thus my peaches and pears are divine!


Yes!

Sorry you’ve been having so much trouble with the herd lately!

That dinner sounds lovely and your applesauce and fruit sounds amazing. chunky applesauce is my favorite kind and fresh peaches are the best.

Nubby better take you out for ice cream after dinner too.

That stuff is pretty common these days apparently lol

Man i never could just do nothing. Always been up before daylight ready to go. After about day 3 on vacation im starting to itch to get back to work. It would drive me insane to sit there lol

Before daylight!?

Oddly enough, on vacation (which we don’t really go on much but still), I get bored sitting there want to do stuff/see stuff. I guess it’s just at home that it’s an issue cause I could never just like sit on some beach or something. Ha

Although usually even here, I get bored sitting eventually, and do go something but I have a very bad habit of just driving around or walking around stores and not doing what I’m supposed to be doing.

But I’ve been slowly improving. Yesterday I did a ton. Probably more than I’ve done in months.

I am somewhat paying the price for it today, way overdid it and got myself completely worn down and sick, but I did at least still do a few things today so it’s still better than usual haha

Me too.
I don't understand lazy or sitting down all day.
I am online a lot but 9.98 times out of ten I am doing other things at the same time.

Usually, at least for me, I don’t intend to sit somewhere for long but then I get roped into the phone

But even for me, as addicted to the phone as I am, I don’t just sit there all day, but what I do tend to do, which is a very bad habit I need to work on, is I tend to accidentally sit and plant for hours sometimes before doing stuff. So, for instance, say I wanna go to the store, or say I just got out of the shower or what to eat lunch or whatever, instead of going to the store, I will sit there, usually with my shoes on, not going forever, or I’ll get started on the phone and not make my food for forever, or not get dressed or whatever, like I tend to accidentally get sucked in and forget what I was originally doing

I think I might need to start locking my phone in a drawer or something so I can just go when I wanna go or do what I wanna do and not accidentally get sucked in

Cause for me what usually happens is I’ll get it out to read one thing, watch one video, check it for 5 minutes, and then I find one more thing to read, one more thing to watch, and accidentally get sucked in.

So for me it’s kind of an accident or more phone addicted or something. Cause when I don’t have it, I practically work until I drop as you saw yesterday.

So I think what I need to do is lock my phone away for a week or something haha

But that said, because I’m not used to working so much, I also have problems with pacing myself and tend to go crazy and overdo it. I guess for me it’s kind of all or nothing which is a problem.

I need to work on finding a middle ground.

You must have missed that post. I think it was only a couple of days ago when I mentioned where I grew up.

I still pronounce it the way I learned it as a kid.
