Some days everythng goes so fast I barely get the dishes done. Yesterday I had a day like that and only got the camera out right at the end of the day. 
It is the housework duties that suffer when I have a busy day – not the barn. The barn floor is still swept and the animals have fresh water and lots of food. 
The house is the one that is neglected with dishes undone and laundry unwashed and dinner from the freezer.
Above is Poppy having a good moan about something. Probably Sheila hogging all the blankets. 
Even the dogs walk is not negected when I am so pushed for time that the verandah is a litter of picking baskets and boots. 
I have learnt a very important AirBnB lesson though – Keep the rooms up to date in case of a last minute bookings !!
Today will be twice as busy catching up.
I will go into Audible and put on a good talking book. Having a good book read to me makes menial housework so much nore palatable. 
Speaking of books. Don’t forget The Library. I have more books to go in there myself. Soon Samantha and I will go through and add the links so we can buy them easily.
Middle sized pigs. 
I hope you have a lovely day.
Love celi

I’m happy you have your priorities in order. Animals first, housework second — that is how it rolls here as well.
It is much more comfortable that way – glad you agree
I love the new look of the header and the Lounge of Comments! Another something that is not neglected; we are cared for as carefully as the creatures.
Yes – Samantha and I just started on it today – much lighter and breezier and FREE! So now she is saving me money!
I love the new theme, had a look around & noticed the first two “it’s” in the Join Us blurb should be “its” ✏ ♡
Thank you ViV!
Only thing is, no instagram feed… I always used to head down the bottom to see what was going on down there…
Yes, I know – it is not finished yet – a work in prgress.
So nice to walk alongside you. Thanks for the moment.
You are welcome Marmepurl
Those photos are FANTASTIC!
I love that flower – that is a greeting card for sure!
Beautiful!
Love the name of your Blog!! Tinny
Thanks! hehehe Family nickname 🙂
Ah yes housework… such grand plans that I had to reassess. Studying, gardening, blogging, writing short stories, housework weekly-monthly-seasonal schedule, home grown made food… The reality is I do just enough of everything to get by, we’ve had no rain so no matter what we do the house is dusty… with a smattering of dog fur, we’re on tank water rations, but clean enough so no-one dies is the bottom line! We make our own food & eat well, the garden gets the kitchen sink water so something is growing, which means the washing up gets done.
So happy you had a airbnb guest. Regardless of whatever else is or isn’t happening our guest room is always good to go, as we never know when family or friends will call, saying I’ll just be passing by.
Absolutely love the new stylish format . . . as I have been bedridden for the last week, also appreciated the wander down evening paths out your way. Our 30C spring has reverted to howling cold gales . . . so a peaceful walk was most welcome. *smile* If the state of our respective homes was to be compared this instant, oh I would win by a huge margin . . . . hardly a clean dish left in the cupboards . . . .
Oh my yes, first off in the morning is letting the chickens out, feeding Percy and the goats, turn the horses and donkey to pasture and clean the barn. Come in for a cup and toast, then a mile out and a mile back with the dogs. Seems I’m ALWAYS able to find something else needs doing other than housework!
I agree, I love audio books! They make the most menial housekeeping tasks so much more pleasant. I listen particularly when washing dishes or cleaning bathrooms.
spot-on !
Such a beautiful Cosmo, does she have a name C? We are all the same, I think. Those who really need get… ; )
