Do you ever find that you get to the weekend and you are just brain dead and need to take some time to catch up to yourself?
Thats how I found myself this weekend and the fact that we had a touch of winter made it alot easier to stay inside and make a cosy nest on the lounge and just vege out. I needed no excuse to start one of the books that Evan gave me for my birthday; covered by a doona, a Curly Coated Puppy (either Doc or Ruby) - a hot cup of tea and a piece of chocolate birthday cake which was made by Evan (the perfect comfort food) . Hmmm. What a way to spend a Sunday? Its nice to be able to just chill out for a day or so.
We did talk about going up to the Brisbane Bloodstock sale at Toowoomba ... but talk about it was as far as we got ... it was way too cold and there would be a howling wind blowing through the Showgrounds as well.
The closest we got to the Showgrounds was to head to Allora for the best hamburger and chips on the Darling Downs...
So, I spent the day curled up on the lounge and Evan was very brave going outside. Mind you, all the residents are resplendent in their ready made coats that Mother Nature provides. I have to admit that I did do a once around to say hello to all the horses... notwithstanding big cuddles for Pip and the two little boys, Harry and Jack.
The winds today were straight off the arctic caps (or well it felt that way) - a sure sign that we're heading for some cold days in the next few months. BBBRRRRR.....
So, here we are at the end of the weekend again ... with a new resident expected tomorrow.
Bring it all on!
