I guess I have my to do list for the weekend

Things I did not do, and don't want to do just because I have some time, but considered each for a few minutes: do dishes, fold laundry, organize, power wash the deck, straighten up the deck, power wash/rake and prep the patio for all of the trimming and weeding that needs to get done.

- made hummingbird sugar water
-put out hummingbird feeders
- cleaned brooder and the table it lives on with the power washer (yay! Chicks hatching on Friday/Saturday have a grow out home - I've been failing to get it done after work and Saturday will be marginally too late)
- fed all the animals

- Took a shower
- made coffee
- chatted with youngest (who was also painfully awake)
- started a load of laundry because Barney maybe was nervous that the reason I was up and out so early was that I was leaving (which IS a thing when I have to travel) and peed on youngest's blanket.

I woke up this morning way earlier than I wanted to and well before my alarm. I still have over an hour before work (but I'm going to focus on some quiet time. Maybe read, maybe play nonagram games.)

These past few months have been exceedingly tough, and right now I'm still one foot in front of the other, chop wood, carry water. I can't really think about the uncertainty all around me. I can't really plan next steps in ways that would truly help me.

So...

Hi back! ❤️

And the Moche!
