-4 sunshiny day

With my morning coffee I wrote a Hometalk post for removing puppy pee stains. It is a brisk one at -17 to start but eventually the sun came out around 10 as I was doing more raw diet research. My blooming tulips required some photo ops!







In the garage, I sanded the top of the nightstand and moved the drawers all up onto a work table. Now to decide the paint finish, so inside I went to search inspiration. I also weighed Harley who has tipped the scales at 100.4 pounds. Not sure how much longer I will be able to lift her on the scale with me :)



I forgot to take a before so quickly snapped this one


Britt and Cooper arrived around 11 as I was looking. She had me soak beet pulp so took that to feed horses and take of Bird's blanket as it was now -10 and rising. I donned my gear and went out to shovel sidewalks from last nights snow, scoop poop and check cat food. B and I thought Lexi's eye should be checked before her specialist appointment on the 8th and seeing Shaina had spent the night at Kaylin's and she was at work she asked me to call. I booked her in for today at 1 but Shaina was in line at a restaurant so Devon took her.


B and C left for town before 12:30 as I was brushing H outside then gave her a deer meat search. Last of the tuna then onto computer work with a phone call from a local raw diet dealer to answer some questions. The sun continued to shine and it warmed up to - 4. I rousted sleeping Harley and she and I went out for a structured walk on leash to the gate and back. Of course the kittens came along too.


Back home I chatted with a city dealer that delivers right to your door for half the cost of the last gal - who also delivers but lives down the road. I watched YouTube videos on it while I cooked chili for supper. Kaylin called with the sad news Lexi is 100% blind in her right eye with excruciating pain from glaucoma and most likely may have to be removed ;(. She was sent home with pain killers and 2 kinds of eye drops sourced from a drug store to be given every 8 hours with one staggered 15 minutes ahead of the other. Hopefully this gives her relief until her specialist appointment.


I never tire of this view and time of day


Shaina arrived home at 5:45 and kindly put the cats away after she hauled in her stuff. We waited for Brittany to join us after 6 to eat chili and garlic toast. Shaina was on her computer looking for rental places while Britt mixed up her new thrush hoof cream concoction that she hopes to make millions selling. She and Cooper headed home after 7. Shaina made a quick trip to town to grab a snow joe and check the mail for a parcel she was expecting with no luck. She was back in short order, made popcorn delivering a bowl to me as I was now in bed watching YouTube raw diet videos, thanks Dude then off to her room. I let out H at 10 for her last time and it was lights out soon after.
