A good day!

Was a good day with lots gotten done.  First off, the barn got swept front and back, parlor cleaned, feed mixed, hay and straw dropped down, straw spread in stalls, all tanks filled, goats milked, horses moved to the hayfield for the day, both tractors started and run, dog got a ride in old truck to get gas, and milk brought in to the house.

Second, fresh milk was made into yogurt and then placed to ripen.  While doing the yogurt, I washed up the dishes, swept the scullery, powder room, and kitchen.  More decorating of the house, found a box of good stuff, so found places for it.

Thirdly, had an appointment with the bank to refinance the house at a lower interest rate, things look good there.  Then a late lunch at Jade Garden, ate toooo much, but it is good!  Need to keep up the strength for Christmas shopping.

Wal-Mart, got the nieces DONE as well as a few grocery items.  Then TSC for "Friends and Family" night.  Extra savings and special coupons.  Got three of the Grands gifts there as well as my Brother's gift.  Saw several different friends and had short visits with them.  Pat, our only Son-in-Law was there too, looking for dog food.  Quick visit and poked fun at Greg's parking!  Looks like some drunk did the truck parking!

The drive home was a light show.  Only not many lights.  Will have to go out later in the month and do some town tours, see more lights then out here in the country.

At home, checked yogurt, all is right...moved it to the fridge.  Smoothies in the morning.  Things put away, jammies on, and time to doze in the chair then off to bed.

Today, Farrier comes to trim horses.  Maybe a quick trip into Ovid to the "Inspiration Station" to get an "Anniversary" stamp so I can make some anniversary cards.  And the rest of the afternoon should be a crafting day.  Plenty of gifts to make, very little time left.

Onward and Upward.
