Surprise Delivery ~ Busy Saturday
In my hustle and bustle of daily duties, including the terrible habit I have of worrying, a delivery arrived to my door.
A very special delivery.
A beautiful bouquet of flowers, that were arranged in a beautiful vase.
Smelling and seeing them is just the prescription I needed for stress.
They came from my sister-in-law, who sent me a very inspiring note, regarding her enjoyment of reading my blog.
Saturday was a busy day around here too.
The girls started their day by working on the horse fencing and building a make-shift stall with what ever they could reuse. I had to make a trip to town for horse feed, wood pellets and pick up something at my brother's. Then it was back home to unload the second truck load of wood. I still haven't been feeling good, but the elderberry is definitely helping.
While unloading the second load of wood, I ran inside to fetch my camera. We've been having some beautiful sunsets here recently.
It was then, that I saw all my laundry on the line, and had to run out and get it all down in the dark. It was nice to come inside and find the turkey in the roaster ready to eat. Boy were we all hungry.
The horse fencing and stable were completed and her horse is to arrive Sunday.
