Full day

This morning I woke up early to throw some laundry in and to get ready for my very busy day! After getting one load of wash done and then getting myself ready I had to run out the door to be on time to have breakfast with Vicky. It's so nice to be able to talk freely with a friend and hear her insights. After breakfast I stopped by my old office and dropped of a card to Rhett to thank him for helping me move back in December. 

Then I was finally ready to head the sanctuary. Once I arrived I began mucking out the large pen. Once my wheel barrel was full I would take it to the compost pile. En route to the compost pile I passed by Pumpkin the cat whom was patiently waiting for a gopher to appear. She never did catch the retched ting!
 Once we were all done mucking out the pen, putting down fresh straw and had refilled the water it was time to let the sheep and goats back in. The goats happily inspected our work but the sheep were content to stay outside and observe us from afar.
 Then it was time to take donated produce and give several handfuls to the turkeys, chickens and ducks. The turkeys really liked the bell peppers and tomatoes.
Here is our group photo afterwards. We are all very muddy, dirty, sweaty and tired but all so happy to help out such a great cause.
After the sanctuary I dropped off cards for Brittany/Kevin and then to Bonnie all to thank them for helping me move. It was nice to finally have that project done. I guess project is too strong of a word perhaps task would be better.

Once I was home it was straight into the shower for me. Linda and I were supposed to go shopping but I was exhausted. I knew a nap would be nice but then I wouldn't be able to sleep later on so I opted for some popcorn and a movie. 

I'm still conquering my mountain of laundry and I need to hang some pictures up tonight too. I can honestly say it's been a very busy Saturday! Here's to hoping for a low key Sunday!
