Holiday Monday

I started the day with a headache, rats. The horses had their muzzles off at 9 and it is already a hot windy day out there. S made his usual coffee and kicked back to enjoy. I had to get my Monday Instagram post done and share a blog post trying to catch up again. B and Coop came out before 10:30 so she and I could trim Bird.  She was off once finished Bird and fed her. Cooper is staying here for the day as B is off to the science centre to see animal bodies inside out.

I finally put on my new chaps only to have Bird's feet have oil on them.. officially dirty now ;(

I wrote a tutorial for the latest white S&P set, S was off to the TV room for the 12:30 Flames game after leftover lunch and fruit chopping. I did more marketing before heading out in the 30 degree heat to catch Switch and Pepper. Britt wanted him reassed at the chiro. My 2 pm appointment required a 25 minute wait in the hot sun sitting in the truck. Once it was their turn Pepper was thermographed and said good. Switch was adjusted and I had them loaded and off by 3.

Did I mention it was windy?

When checking tack in trailer we found the vent was damaged in the hail storm too. S did put duct tape over the holes till we get a new one.

The drying hot air was oppressing but not for Mr K who spent the day in the A/C watching hockey.. all .. day.. long. The warm day turned into a wind storm which finally brought rain at 6 as I was cooking supper. It only lasted about 15 minutes and only brought 1/2 a tenth but we will take it. The temperature dropped to a brisk 19 which I think the animals appreciated. Supper was the last Good Food seared chicken but the chicken looked off after its day in the sun so we skipped it and added some from our freezer. It turned out OK.

S was off to the TV room again for more hockey and I the computer. I ran out at 9 to put on muzzles, water my front pots that missed the rain. Britt was along soon after to pick up Cooper and head home. Tomorrow Roo comes home after 3 months at school. Time for some Grey's Anatomy.
