I finished a book over my week long break from the internet. And just for the record, I am still reading a Hemingway book.
I ran out of white yarn, and have yet to pick up more. Maybe this week I can.
It was nice to get a break, but reality sets in when the break is over. I'm still weeding through 421 emails. Most of course are just advertisements. I am starting to unsubscribe to many of them this next week.
Good news! Our white doeling has a new home. She went to a family just getting started in raising dairy goats.
Also, Hubby starts back to work Monday. It's not every day just yet, but I guess they have some talks to give the employees first. What a mess, but glad the 300-some employees are going back to work.
We are out of hay, and cannot locate any just yet. With our one daughter going off this weekend for college orientation, I'm on total goat duty until next Wednesday morning (milking the two ladies). I'm rotating them in the pasture, and cutting grass by hand for the bucklings. Our hay/straw guy has not made his first cutting, but may soon (if the weather stays dry enough). However, we expect bad storms and more rain late tonight.
Which reminds me, I need to make cheese today too. Or tomorrow. We have a good supply again.
Weeding the garden will be much easier after this next rain, so I may simply take the day off from that today. I need to get laundry out before our so-called neighbor starts disrespecting all of the residential homes in our area, and filing them with air pollution (dirt, dust, exhaust etc.). Yesterday, another one of his "customers" flipped me off (driving past our homestead), while sitting on my porch. Second time this season. Next time I'm getting the plate numbers and making a report.

I hope your Sunday is peaceful and relaxing.

It's hot here and I just closed the windows and turned on the ac as I could feel the heat flooding in through the windows....90's today with high humidity and dew point! Ahhhgh! Stay cool!
Good news about your hubby going back to work. Sure hope all returns to normal quickly.
We're still in the deep freeze (for early summer) and getting plenty of rain. One and 2/10ths of an inch overnight. No garden work today.
Kudos to your daughter and your husband. Having a job to go to each day is a wonderful thing.
It's hot here, danged hot, but we live in the South, so what else would we expect. LOL
Have a great week!
God bless.
