The Late Night Shipper
It started raining during the night and was still raining this morning. I drove the motorhome in the rain down to D & H while Mark followed in the Tesla. After dropping that off we drove to Meisters to drop off a check then to Sam's to get the rest of the food for church lunch. There was a lot to unload and I am very glad for an attached garage. We didn't get wet while unloading. At noon the rain stopped for a short time. I quickly ran up to the barns to move a bale in for the mares in the middle paddock, except they were up by the gate and I didn't have help. Instead I took the time to finish the foaling apartment.
There is now new bedding on all of the beds. The futon needs to be kept a bed again as we have 5 guests moving in on Friday. Below is the queen room with the pocket doors shut.
The picture below shows the new lights for this room on both sides of the bed. To the left of the picture is the bench and to the right is the closet door.
Below are 2 pictures of the king room.
When I finished the rain was just starting up again but the 4 mares in that paddock were out grazing. The tractor was used to put in a new bale.
When I got back to the house the 4 chickens picked up today from Sam's club were deboned and the meat chopped and frozen. I had just finished that when the shipper coming for Rosaleigh's colt sent a message he would be arriving around 11:00 pm. I had Mark come help bring the mares and foals into the stalls. I found out that the paper work I sent in to register Merlin and Rosaleigh's colt had to be mailed to a different address. The FHHI registry is going through a break up and the lady with the database has a different address. I had to call the bank to put a stop order on the check and then fill out all new applications but that meant I also had to pull hair again. Once Merlin's hair was pulled, he and Harli, his dam were taken back outside but Tessa and her filly will have to spend the night inside because Rosaleigh's colt is in the stall across the aisle and he wouldn't be happy in the barn by himself. His hair also had to be pulled. He didn't care, he was too busy munching away on his grain.
It was raining when we brought the horses inside and raining when I got home. We cleaned up and got ready for church. Tonight was Dave Barnard's testimony and baptism. It was a really special night. It is on AC Central if you would like to watch it click HERE. We got home late but I can't go to bed. I will be moving over to the foaling apartment tonight as the shipper just sent an update it will be closer to midnight before he arrives. Hope I can stay awake that long.
