Ranch life

It's been nice having a short commute. I'm getting up at the same time, just to be sure that the pup gets his exercise before I have to go to work. I don't have to feed the cows in the morning, so that cuts down on the morning chores somewhat. It's a nice little country break from city life. Kinda an Alan Jackson "gone country" vibe. Back to my roots and all. It's fun for a week. 🤠

Someone wants to play! Cutie pie

The toy has been eviscerated!

I didnt end up doing the gym, but i did bring dumbells and did a few rounds of exercises at the house. Harley was VERY confused. Lol. I'm liking the way my arms are looking. Been focusing on the Triceps and I can SEE muscles when I flex now!! It's nice. I've been going to the gym for how long now and I'm FINALLY seeing some results!

The spicy calico. I'm calling her jalapeño

One kitten was dead when i came home on Tuesday. Sad cuz it was one of the ones I really liked. Sigh. Figured it was sick when it didn't run away, tbh. Then I saw a new kitty! This one is orange and white and SO adorable!! Then wed morning I saw a new black one!! The kittens are venturing out! The sheepdogs missed their breakfast on Wed, and then k sent me a voice-mail of someone telling her Duke had been spotted down the road. Thankfully her friend is going to find him and, well, we have to put the pup in lock down. Can't have a sheepdog that abandons the sheep. Sigh. Poor thing. He's just young. But he took daisy with him, so we gotta keep him at the ranch. 

The kittens!! 

No remorse. None.

Never a dull moment on the ranch. Harley found some shoes, I'm afraid, and chewed them up.

He's looking at his favorite chew toy.

The 4 I wanna bring home 😁

Happy puppy

He's so sweet!!

Daisy is feeling better after her walkabout with Duke.

I took myself to dinner at a new brewery in town. The Glen rose brewing co. The staff were friendly, the beer was good, and the brat was surprising. The kraut had jalapeño in it, and the potato salad had olives. Not exactly expected, but welcome. 

The grumpy McGregor was the beer

The helles yeah! 

 Both were enjoyed all the way to the bottom. 😁 

As my time at the ranch is coming to an end, I shall deviate from my normal posting schedule and post this on Saturday instead of Sunday. As you will see next Sunday, this is because I have traveling to do on Saturday, and bestie shenanigans are planned for Sat, sun, and a bit on mon. Frankly, there may be too much for one post. Hehe. Also, I may not have time to post while I'm with bestie. So, we post a day early. I enjoyed my time with all the animals, even with the walkabouts. Harley only killed 3 shoes, which is good since last time there were 6 total. I lost one kitten, and there were no births while I was here. Thank goodness. I'm still afraid something would go wrong and I'd need to call in reinforcements. I do love my time reconnecting with my country roots. 😁 

I hope all is well for all of you, and I send my love ❤️❤️ hugs!!
