1 hour disaster

 Today was a busy saturday. I took the sheets off my bed, washed down the bedroom walls to  get rid of the cobwebs, cleaned out the turkey run, helped butcher Ferdinand the turkey, and then came in to shower! (Cleaning the turkey pen consists of using a pitch fork and scooping very wet and very stinky slop. All in all a very stinky job!)

This afternoon  I cleaned  the house. I wiped down all the dog hair/dust-laden floors and wiped down the cupboard fronts. I even bathed the baby in the kitchen sink!  I did the dishes, picked strawberries and lettuce and spinach and weeded the garden.

Just before supper I strained the milk and put it in a bag for the freezer. I spilled half of the bag ...on the floor, on the salad vegetables, in all the drawers and inside the cupboards.  The dog was licking up the milk and Z came to check out what was going on. Her feet slipped from under her and she fell flat on her back with her head in the milk... so after having given her one bath today she needed her second!

 After supper I deboned the turkey and put it in a glass dish. As I poured the gravy into the container I heard a a dripping noise. Come to find out the gravy was not going in to the glass dish, rather it was going all over the cupboard and all over the inside of the cupboards and the doors and all over the floor --running down our uneven floor towards the floor vent.

 I got to clean my kitchen again for the 3rd time today... it should be clean!!

As I was ready to put Z in bed I realized that the sheets were not on my bed. They were still in the dryer, and actually they were still damp. I opted to put damp sheets on the bed so that I could put the baby to bed and go take my shower. Now at 9 o'clock, after having fed the baby goats I think I'm ready for bed myself!
