One of Those Days

It’s been one of those days.  You know, one of the, fire won’t start, rabbit scratches, flooded barn, raining like mad, slip in the chicken manure, wet pants, screaming children kind of days.  And, somehow, yet I have managed to make it through.  The chores got done, the house is slowly limping along getting warmer and there is a nice big pot of soup I like to call “Leftovers from the Fridge Soup.”  We are all alive, and though we are slightly grumpy and a little wet, we’ve managed to make it through.  I like to think that I’ve taken this slump a little more graciously than at other times.

The water level in the barn creeped up another inch while I was out doing chores, but at least this time the hay is sitting on a pallet, so though it is annoying, it’s not the end of everything.

I’m told this endless winter will morph into Spring this next week with sun and temperatures in the mid 60s  oh… and no rain predicted!

Until then, I’m going to sit by the fire, do puzzles and enjoy the wonderfulness that is my offspring.
