SHOWING COLD

Pictures don’t show the cold. This just looks like a sunny day right? But it is really cold. I don’t think the cold came too early as much as really too fast. With no autumn.

The shed is a hub at feed time. Mixing all the feeds up. The byproduct from the flour mill , the byproduct from the sunflower oil, the ground GMO Free corn from down the road. The sprouts grown in my shower, soaked grains and dirty eggs from the chickens.

I collected the corn today and I had a wee spillage so the birds helped me clean up.

Putting Jude in the foreground makes him look quite big.

But he is not. When I pick him up to move him about he stands on my arms like a great big bird. He is not a cuddly pig.

I am so mad because I got a question wrong in my short open book quiz yesterday. It was multi choice and the answer was all of the above but I thought I knew better and got it wrong. I could kick myself.

Note to self: the right answer in a test is often not what I think it should be but what the book says it should be. Slow down. Read the questions thoroughly. I am good at tests. I like them. Just don’t like getting anything wrong.

Today the last Airbnb guests arrive, my essay is due and our local town has its Christmas in the Street celebration.

So I am going to get to work early.

I hope you have a lovely day.
