I got home so late today. Ronnie had fed and watered and even cooked dinner tonight. I am grateful for that. 

The horses were all eating hay when I got home. I do love to see them when I get home. 

Sonny was still doing fine. 

The other animals looked like they were doing fine. 

I did see Onyx and Yeller tonight. 

I’m not sure what is going on with Ursula tonight, but her left eye is draining and looks painful. Yet another thing to watch to make sure it’s nothing serious. You know the saying, if it’s not one thing, it’s another. That saying is true.

I did more relaxing today. It was nice and it was needed. I have a hard time with not being productive when trying to relax. I cannot do it. I have never been able to do it. I need to learn. 

Sonny was in a bad spot this morning. The other roosters were circling him, but he managed to get by them. 

Ursula is such a Velcro cat. I should have named her that. 

The animals are all doing fine. The weather is definitely changing. 

I did get to love on the donkeys and I did get to see the cats today. 

I worked hard on that quit today and I did get a lot accomplished, even though I was supposed to be relaxing.

I might be selfish today and just stay home and work on a quilt. I enjoy that and need a little me time. I actually slept almost 12 hours. I guess I needed it. We all need rest or you become burnt out which I think is where I am, so today will be good  for me. 

Sonny boy was up and about looking good this afternoon. I’m happy about that. 

The animals were lazy again today. I guess the weather is going to change.

Fred was limping around and his leg looked a little swollen. I have no idea what to even think about that. 

It was a windy day. The animals knew the weather was going to change. The animals do get spunky in the windy weather. The horses manes were blowing in the wind and they looked so pretty. 

The cats are all doing fine. They were all in different areas outside. 

I caught Oreo sleeping on the latest quilt I made. I decided to put that quilt in a tote to keep the cats off of it.

I did not want to get up this morning, none of the animals did either. Ronnie left super early this morning, so I got up to feed the animals. The pasture goats were laid up against the fence. Mattie and Noma were laying down in their spot. Chief was even laying down in the pasture. The little goats were still laying down also. No one wanted to get up. I cannot say I blame them. I sure did not either. 

I did get to see Athena, Onyx, and Yeller. Athena was up and around. Onyx was on top of the barn for some reason and Yeller was up on the hay bale hanging out. They all did come into the shop to eat. 

The pigs were up and ready for food. Willow and the cows were up and eating. Jasper was scratching on some fencing and drooling. It might be time to take him back to the vet. The horses were up except for Chief and Jeb was laying down in the barn. Lazy animals for the most part. It's Friday though. They can be lazy. Jasper did let me pet him. That has gotten much better. 

The skies were crazy looking this morning. The donkeys were over by the pig pens seeing what was going on with all that food. 

It was such a pretty morning once the sun started coming out. Mattie allowed me to pet him. So did the little goats which is a rare occurrence. 

The dogs were running around getting some energy out. 

Sonny was up and around. I do think he is on the med. 

The clouds looked like rain. Rain was in the forecast, but that is also a rare occurrence around West Texas. We need it bad. 

When I got home, Noma was still in the same spot pretty much and still laying down. She is declining and I know it. 

Ursula ran out of the house again. I am not sure what is going on with that cat. She wants to be outside, and she has not been an outside cat in years. It is such a change in behavior. 

I did see the cats again this afternoon. 

Sonny was still looking good up and around. 

The pigs were all good this evening. 

It was a pretty night. Sonny decided to sleep in the shelter with the fainting goats. I am glad he has somewhere to go. We all need somewhere to go when things just are not right.
