While The Cat's Away......

The sickly little mouse is doing all the work! I think I mentioned my Dad is out of town for a few days. He and brother are working on a little movie thing and went to Colorado to film. Poor babies!

So, in Dad's absence, someone has to feed the rest of the horses that didn't go with him. And since only 1 horse, Juan, went with him, that means there are plenty left. Guess who's elected? I didn't even have to put signs out in the yard!

Sunday it was tough. I was dragging myself around and when I say dragging, that isn't an understatement. I could hardly throw a flake of hay over the fence. I made it though. Thankfully, our little cool front came on down and brought some relief. I might not've made it if it had been 105 out there.

Last night sis#3, bro-in-law#2, Hoss, and Rowdy helped out. Hoss mostly played with the kitties and climbed on the hay which he found out hurts when you fall and scrape your tummy on the end of a bale!

This morning was a different story though. I almost felt normal. I'm able to get a flake over the fence a little farther. I didn't feel like I was gonna die when I was through. Maybe by tomorrow I'll be running with 3 flakes to the fence!!

Yeah right! Why would anyone do that?????
