Craig wore girl pants the other day! Let me take a moment and laugh hysterically at that......... HAHAHAHA. Okay, that's enough. See, over the summer his mother went to a lot of rummage sales and would get any pair of jeans sized 34. So Craig has this huge pile of jeans on top of his dresser that he has YET to sort through. Anyway, I guess the other day he went with Joe to get the bear Joe shot and to go shopping, and he put on a pair of the jeans his mother bought for him. He told me on the phone the pants fit him funny in the crotch and he didn't like them. When I got to his house, he showed up a few minutes later and called me downstairs (I was upstairs cleaning, haha), I looked at his pants and thought "Wow, those are weird-looking pants..." And it turns out he wore girl pants all Tuesday. HAHAHA. Yes, his ass looked good in them, but his junk did not.
Today has been kind of a clusterfuck. Last night I brought the horses in early due to expected thunder storms. As I was getting Sax (the last of the far-away horses), I heard thunder and saw lightning strike on the horizon. I managed to get everyone in before the rain, which was good. I taped Susan riding Julia, then came inside and took a shower in preparation of going to Craig's. I could hear the thunder while I was in there, and saw, upon getting out, it POURING outside. I called Craig to see what the weather was like there, and he said it was just drizzling. So I decided to go over.
Well it rained ALL last night. We got 4.5 inches of it. Chey got Craig in the middle of the night because there was 8 inches of water in their basement. I woke up at 5:45 but decided to wait until it was a bit lighter out to go home, since I didn't know what the roads were going to be like and I didn't want to be driving in the pitch black and not see the road washed away or something.
Rick was already home and he said Gold'n Plump sent them home early due to the rain and flooding. I guess the Independence Dam broke, so all of downtown Arcadia was under water! He told me to be careful. County C was fine, even at the bridge where it flooded a few months ago. I crossed the highway and went down River Road, but once I tried to go across the river bottom, I couldn't even get 100 yards down the road, it was flooded so bad. So I had to turn around and go Doelle Valley to Barth to County P. There were about 4 mudslides, which I could get around, but if they had been worse I couldn't have gotten home since the only other close way to get to Dodge would have been through town and that was closed and in a state of emergency!
I got home around 7 and Laura had decided to not go to work (good plan). I went out and turned out Julia and Jasmine, and just as I was getting RC to her paddock it just started to POUR. So I turned around and she and I RAN back to the barn. Eventually the rain calmed down so I turned out everyone except Junior, RC, Zoey, Copper, Duke, and Scooby. (Zoey's feet need to stay as dry as possible due to a thrush infestation in her hooves, and the latter three's paddocks are under a foot of water! Junior also stayed in because Ben and Sax are in his paddock today.)
I got all the chores done by noon and came in the house, showered, vacuumed, and swept. I read for a little bit and am attempting to write but I am very tired. The vet is coming today to look at Junior's teeth, Julia's sarcoid, and do a purchase check on Tilly. Being home with Laura is kind of awkward, but whatever, I'm getting over it.
