Daisy gets a day pass

It seems after my usual wake ups to check time around 5, 6 and 7 I slept in till 8:35!! I awoke with a start and was out of bed and off to give Daisy her meds. It is a sunny -4 morning so after her meds I put her in the round pen for the day with some hay which made her very happy. She had drank a bucket of water overnight and ate her hay and did not seem as itchy which were all good signs. I woke feeling much better too although S says he is worse.

Back inside Prince was making coffee then took his back to bed. I got a post published before heading out to add the second coat inside the cabinet and door back. Once motivated by coffee S headed out to bring the Xmas tree from the shop mez I have started laundry too as part of my daily chores which lasted all day long. S also fine tuned Lola's shelter hauling out 4 hay bales to close it in more, she is not a fan of the cushions so I will move. She has to see too so not sure what she will think of the wall ;)

He helped me take the bed frame apart and move to the basement. This now gives me much more room in the workshop, thanks! We had hot noodle soup for lunch to help with the cold. It is now PLUS 1 as we caught the noon news with forecast to stay above for the weeks highs all but Thursday.

I NEED to get a good photo to sell this beauty but it is sooo big

S was off at 1:30 driving thru town to exchange new mitts B had bought in lieu of his Cooper chewed up and drop off my Etsy parcel! I got busy on the custom pieces distressing the cabinet and dark waxing the entry table. At 2:30 I ran out to give Daisy her mid day meds and walk her to water both inside and at the trough but no luck so back to the pen with some more hay. I got back to the table finishing it all up.

At 4:30 I went back out to put Daisy in the stall seeing it is getting dark sadly with the time change and winter solstice approaching. The round pen was poop picked (this is a good sign) before I gave Pepper his pill too. Then it was time to sort photos on the computer. While I ate supper I chatted with Shaina as they were delayed in the plane for over an hour but by 6 they were on their way headed home via LA.

Daisy got her last antibiotic dose along with her antihistamine which will not be for much longer. I took warm water but she had not drank any since putting her away at 4:30 so filled her hay and back in by 9. I spent some time sorting the table pieces into order and deciding what to do. In bed I watched the latest Shameless episode then entered some more Instagram giveaways while enjoying a protein smoothie. Yesterday I won a full set of lashes!!

this is how it lays out with a full section on each end that pulls out
