Sunday, November 17, 2024 – Unexpectedly Tiring Day

Hi Darlin',
Had a good eight hours of sleep, and was hoping for a rest day today, but it didn't turn out that way. After chores and breakfast, I put some more stuff back in the truck, trying to keep it fairly clutter free as much as possible. Then I headed out to the DG mart to do a little shopping, just a few things that I had run out of, including laundry detergent. On the way back, I went to Helen's and picked up the little horse trailer, then brought it back to camp and dropped it off. Then I drove to Yvette's to meet with her about mowing her pastures as part of our deal of having stored my tractor and Buick all summer. Then I got back to camp and started a load of laundry (some new sheets I bought that were delivered on Friday), then discovered there were a couple of tables in the back of the horse trailer that I had forgotten we had stored there, so I loaded them in the pickup and drove them back to Helen's. When I got back from that, I started putting the mailbox I received yesterday together, and got that put in. I made a small sign with the street number on it and screwed it into the sign by the road, so now UPS will have no more excuses about not delivering to me. Can you believe it? Even though I clearly put on the address "Black Prong Trailhead" and there's a big sign out front, the dispatcher claimed the driver isn't allowed to pull into a driveway without a street number visible from the road! I call BS on that one! Anyway, now there is a sign with the number, so we'll see what their next excuse is. Did another load of laundry and finally settled down for the evening after feeding the horses. Watched a great horse movie, 50-1, about Mine That Bird, the come from behind horse from New Mexico that won the KY Derby back in 2009. Heading to bed early soon, I feel exhausted with all the running around today. So much for my day of rest! It's supposed to rain later this week, I guess I'll take my day off then! Love you, sweetie! Good night!
