Pasture care Sunday

Lola was let out at 8:30, I shared my Sunday scroll stopper found on Instagram and made a cappuccino. Just in time to enjoy with a call from Mom to catch up. A bit of marketing then out to the garage to take apart the little table, scrape and sand and glue a cracked leg.


this is why I scrub everything, look at the puffy yuck ball




I was just finishing the 3rd coat of white paint on the dining table at 1 when Britt and Cooper pulled in. S jumped on the quad and started picking poop. I made us a couple protein smoothies and I jumped on the mower. For the next hour and half we revamped the middle paddock.


The barn paddock was even watered seeing it was now vacant as all horses together. Back inside before 3 S crawled in big brown and had a nap starting the day with a headache. I headed out and organized the garage a bit more to move the table top. The antique dresser drawers were vacuumed out and edges scraped.


Break time at 4 for a cold drink. B rousted and headed outside to ride Bird and I back out to start scrubbing chairs. First I had to open both big doors, back out the car, scrape the hair/dried mud off the floor and sweep car side out. A few trips to the sweltering mezzanine were next to get 3 more chairs then I got busy scrubbing them all.




It is a gorgeous full sun 25 degree day out so I must get back outside and ride. I caught Switch as B was letting Bird go and she caught Pepper and off we went around 5:30 for over an hour ride. Cooper caught up to us in the winery and joined in. It was such a great day to ride. Back at the ranch it was hose and release time. B and Cooper loaded up and were off after 7. I thought I might have supper only to see the horses all eating in the fat pen so headed out to shoo them out to middle paddock and lock the gate. 

My outside time was not over with watering the garden and using bailer twine to help my heavy pea plants to their frame. Finally I came in to nuke a hotdog and left over veggies eating at 8. Then it was back out to the garage to glue the accent table together and let dry overnight.


                        

I have ran out of Netflix shows and remembered I had Grey's on PVR from way back in February when we went to Belize so started catching up on those getting 3 caught up before shutting it down and putting Lola inside.
