Saturday, April 6, 2024 – Another Busy Prep Day

Hi Babe,
Took three ibuprofens and put in my earplugs last night, I was determined to get a good night sleep, and thankfully, I did! Slept nearly a full eight hours, then worked on my shoulder for a bit. My muscles were really crying last night, and it felt like my shoulder had had a serious setback, but once I got a good night sleep, and worked on it for a bit this morning, it felt much better! After my usual chores, I set out working on my first problem, getting my brake controller working. It was working last week, but then it started to not work right, maybe because I had to use a four pin adapter for Yvette's trailer, I don't know. Once again, the solution seemed to be to take off the connector on the blue wire and just crunch them together and tape them. Something about the connector just not doing it, but this just seemed to work. I wasn't sure it was fixed, but it seemed to be, so after that, I headed down to Yvette's to drop off the tractor. I had to take off the auger and put the bushhog on for her, and it was in pieces, so it took me awhile to get it all back together. Once I got it put in the shed, I took her trailer back to her old house and dropped it off (so grateful for her help!), then a quick stop at Forest HQ to drop off a winch that I thought I might need but didn't, thankfully. Back to camp, and checked the brake controller on the big trailer again, just to make sure, and everything seemed to be working okay. Changed out the bumper pull hitch, since I have to move the little horse trailer tomorrow. Finally settled down to get started on my long list, which kept getting longer every hour I couldn't sleep earlier this week, mostly doing computer and paperwork. I still have an awful lot to do before I leave, but at least I made a lot of headway today. Finally settled down to dinner and a movie. Lola is doing much better, she's been putting a lot more weight on her back foot, and the vet told me I didn't need to soak it anymore, but we'll keep up the antibiotics for at least another month, she said. Hoping for another good night sleep tonight, I still was flagging by the end of the day, not quite fully recovered. Of course, I've been fighting this cold, or whatever it is, for the last few days, so that hasn't helped. Ready for shower and bed soon! Good night, darlin'! Love you!
