Today's Writing EffortI spent a LOT of time outside today. First, after all my regular chores, I helped James do animal chores. Normally, Thursday is Jenny's day to do animal chores, but she had a thing in town to do. Then, when we were done, I started cleaning the rabbitry.

Today's Writing EffortI had planned to spend all day writing. That did not work out like I had hoped. I had to run into town for some feed and straw bales because Jenny ran out of animal feed when she was doing animal chores this morning. And in all of this, I forgot to set up the Walmart grocery run like I ( Read more... )
