Today turned into one of those days that only God can give. I was supposed to work at least five hours because I couldn't work a full shift yesterday because there was not enough work and I offered to just sign off and check back later. When you have a little homestead there is always something you can do. There wasn't enough for me to ever sign back on so I did some of my homemaking chores and finished up the bath of Feta cheese and goat cheese spread that I had made for a co-worker. Earlier in the day I had called my friend Cathy to ask her a question about a saddle and because I hadn't heard from her in a while and when I don't hear from her I worry. She said she would stop by later with a saddle that might be larger than the one I had. She stopped by and we had a wonderful visit while sitting on the porch watching the animals. I took her on a tour to show her the new stalls my daughter's boyfriend and I had put in the barn, the chicken coop and yard that we did and my garden, or should I say what I got planted. Time just flew by and before we knew it it was almost 5:00 p.m. I came in and checked my e-mails to see if I was supposed to sign on to work but didn't have to. As a matter of fact, I don't have to work tomorrow either as it is my scheduled day off. I work Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, off Wednesday and Thursday and work Friday and Saturday. I can sign off to go to church on Sunday, if I could find a church that I really feel at home in that is. At 6:00 I went out and did my evening chores and was finished milking, feeding and watering the animals by 7:00. I was going to make chicken pot pie for my dinner but it's so late now I think I'll just make a salad.
