What do YOU do on a Thursday night?

This groundhog's day, Working Man and I were, well, working. We might be both off of work but the work around here never stops. So while he was off, Working Man used his time to finish some work around the ranch. And what did we do on Thursday? We got the truck, our big 4-wheel drive with mud tires truck stuck in the mud. FIL D had to pull us out with the tractor. Then when that was accomplished, he and FIL D worked on getting the railroad ties out of the truck. One was dropped on Working Man's foot. It's very black and blue now.

Then while putting the posts in to the ground, Working Man got his head hit by the bucket of the tractor. While I was helping turn some of the posts, his finger got crushed. Poor guy did not have a good day.

So...here I am out on the tractor trying to help get to posts in the right place and hauling around cement for him. As it gets later and later, my normally happy toes in flip-flops got colder and colder. But it was a pretty sunset. See?

Oddly enough, it got warmer once the sun was actually down. Like my body was finally convinced that it was cold outside and that it would finally assist me in staying warm. We barely finished before dark but we did get the posts in.

Miss Daisy is doing well. She's 5 weeks and 4 days old now. 2 days ago she was all smiles in the morning and it was not gas. That puts her almost a week ahead of the normal 6-week social smile.

I'll get more pictures up soon.
