I was too tired to sleep last night, so it was close to midnight B4 I finally fell asleep! And, in spite of being so tired, I STILL woke up at 5:30. Tried falling back asleep, but had no luck so I finally got up. It was still dark out, so I figured I'd play on the computer B4 heading out to the farm. I wanted to get out as early as possible since I had one chicken last night that decided to ignore me when I called them all to put them in for the night.
It finally starts to get light. I wanted to take the bike, but since there was the chance of showers I wanted to check the radar B4 I left. So I got on, and changed my mind real quick about what I was taking! It showed rain out at the farm moving towards my house and I HATE to ride in the rain. So, I grabbed a pair of shorts, a tee shirt, socks and hiking boots, got dressed, put on my rain coat and left. It was raining lightly, but not bad. Get to the farm and put on my muck boots. After all, I wanted to keep my feet dry.
Cindy was sitting by the window, looking out at the weather. Normally, as soon as I open the door, she comes running. After being locked up all night, she wants out. Not today. She just looked at me. Walk out of the tack shed, and there's my chicken. As soon as she saw me, she headed over to the chicken pen! So, I did the chickens first. I think she was happy to get back in. As soon as I started to feed the horses, it started to pour! Got everyone fed and went and hid in the tack shed while they were eating. Did a bit of cleaning, but not much. Cindy continued to sit by the window and look out. As soon as the horses were done eating, I let them all out, then went back in the tack shed to change my boots. By this time, Cindy had gotten down from in front of the window-and headed for the litter box. I got in the truck and came home.
Once home, first thing I did was take off my rain coat and boots. Then, I took off my shorts-they were soaked from below the rain coat on down. Took of my tee-the bottom edge was soak. Took off my socks-it had rained so hard that the water just ran down my legs into my boots, so my socks were soaked!
Now I'm sitting in my living room on the computer and thinking about going back to bed. I think Cindy is really smart. She has the right idea-stay inside, sleep and stay out of the rain!
