We woke up to a lavender and rose colored sky. Â There is a pink hue throughout the back yard. It is definitely spring in the Rockies! Â The dogs are anxiously awaiting their breakfast and then a few tosses of the ball.
I can’t believe I had to check on the calf, give l.o.d. a shot, (last night), throw the ball now for our pups , go give the biter another shot and make it to work by 8:15…Whew…I better get moving…handing off to hubby..God Bless and Thank God for all of the wonderful people in our lives.
I just brought our calf over to our backyard and put her in the dog pen. I thought some neighbors would see me walking a cow down the street but everyone seems to still be asleep. We’ll let her hang in the backyard for the day. Mojo isn’t quite sure what to make of her but isn’t barking or anything, just slowly moving around her, they seem to like each other. Mojo (our malamute) just ran a few circles around her, ran into the dog pen, jumped up on the house and flew over the six foot chain link fence in one effortless jump. I can’t believe that dog can jump that high! I’m sure our new family member will be the hit of the neighborhood with the kids today. Mojo is in now and Bell is sleeping curled up on some hay, oh boy.
The boys had a play date yesterday am and then we headed to Boulder for a late lunch (3pm) and a meeting with my friend Brad who owns a couple of successful restaurants. He, his sommelier (wine buyer) and I are working on a few additional revenue streams outside of the wine/restaurant business. Without going into too much detail it involves private label food products, more later. We arrived home around 4pm after a stop at the farm to pick up a cooler full of fresh lettuce, spinach (green and red) arugula, and other greens I don’t even know the name of. This early in the season, that’s about all that grows. I cannot believe the difference in taste of fresh vegetables and greens compared to anything you find in a store, no comparison. The oldest boys soccer game is cancelled as too many players are out of town fro spring break but the little one hits the field at 9am. It’s 7 now so time to get moving, wake both boys, get them fed and start gearing up! At least we’re done by a bit after 10 and have the rest of the day to play.
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Aunt Blondie’s Grand Prize was delivered the day before yesterday and it’s supposed to be 80 degrees today! My lower back is now fine but my right shoulder blade is killing me. The wife had a terrible nose bleed during the night, she must have lost a pint of blood all over everything. Hope she doesn’t faint today as she already has low blood pressure (80 over 60) meaning she needs all she has. I’ll make her have a big breakfast and take some iron. More tomorrow,
Snow tomorrow night by the way….. God bless,
