The winds howled in torrential style all night. There was a spattering of rain drops when I awoke before 8 but did not last long. Coffee, H fed and beet pulped soaked before I ventured out to give KD her morning meds, fill hay bags and clean stalls. I checked the rain gauge and found 1" 2/10ths since last pour out. S says that is over 5 inches in total since Sunday!!! Another coffee then S set out for town after 10:30 to fill car with fuel and have a tooth filled. I worked on the blog, H's food was delivered then I went out in the horrendous winds and let the 2 girls out in the barn paddock for some free time.
My last 7 days of antibiotics did not work so Dr prescribed a new one, I took the first pill at 1 and by after 2 while working on the blog a wave of stomach cramps hit. For the next 45 minutes I could not go far from the bathroom. Turns out the 7 days and new ones had my stomach all upset. I eventually was able to lay on the bed and watch the second movie in the Divergent series called Insurgent. S tried his bolts he picked up today and found them too short so he ran back to town then finished up getting the guard on.
I was feeling better around 4 so clear coated the ruler again and when dry staged a few pics. S was back and got the guard bolted on and brought 2 parcels from the mail. One is a new ball for H as her blue one has gone missing.
I then hauled in the office chair and snapped pics too , when S was back in he helped me screw in the 2 tighter screws. Salmon supper followed by hockey game for S and blog for me.B was out before 8 so she and I went and got the 2 horses in, I filled hay and water and she fed the other 2 and gave KD her night meds. She continued horse care in the barn. I got a text that when Amanda and Mom went to see Dad at 8 he had a fever, weak and not doing well so I headed in. Amanda had gotten him to take 2 Tylenol before I got there and I managed to convince him to take 4 antibiotics and 1/2 a Dixie cup of ensure which was not without a struggle. Cold cloth and turning down the heat helped bring down the fever for him to him relax and sleep. AJ and I left at 11:30 with Mom staying the night.
Back at the ranch S was on his computer watching sports after a soak in the hot tub and shower then was off sleep not long after crawling into bed. I watched some Insurgent before lights out.
