Diary of a spring day

6:00-7:00 a.m. I drag myself out of bed to go read my scriptures (I'm in Moroni and Exodus) and study my YW lesson. This is a great part of my day-- I highly recommend it!

7:00-8:00 a.m. We eat breakfast in shifts because we all leave at different times but I did make Sierra and I sweet potatoe pancakes this morning with buttermilk syrup, which was delicious! (sorry Savanna)
Bryan opted for cold cereal and toast.
I cleaned up the kitchen, put the last load of laundry in the dryer, made the bed and picked up the living room and left for Paradise.

8:00-9:00 a.m. I went straight to Charlie's and caught a horse that is headed to Idaho, fed the bull pen and the other horses, and waited for the truck driver to show up.

9-11:00 a.m. Alma and I went to the East in Brownie, the flat bed, to feed. Cody followed us a horseback. Some of the cows aren't bringing their calves in to be fed so he thought they were a little "nylon deficient" and should be roped and tagged. (good excuse) Alma and I fed, fixed a little fence, and then tried to head for home. The 4-wheel drive wasn't working so we got the truck in a bad spot and ended up leaving Brownie there until it dries up enough that we won't slide off the hill! We had to call Shawn for a ride.

11-12:30 p.m. The three of us sorted the feeding bulding and the pea-viner for the biggest yearling steers to be worked through the shute.

12:30-1 p.m. Lunch with Marj! Delicious pork chops and baked potatoes today!

1-3:30 p.m. We worked 55 yearlings to be ready when Bryan is ready to send them to pasture. Cody didn't even get dirty! I went home after that to my "other job" taking care of my daughters and Bryan when he arrives at home. I love that job too! It was a good day!
