Yesterday was relatively calm compared to Sunday. I found where Meko went through the fence and put the boards back up thanks to Beth's "handy dandy super duper battery-operated drill/screwdriver thingy". However, fence mending is really a two person job, 'pardner', but I managed to "getrdone"! Then, later in the afternoon Peg showed up at the front door. That dog climbs fences!! When I went out I found that I had forgotten to turn the electric fence back in after I fixed the arena fence so she took advantage and climbed over or squeezed through a tiny gap in the gate. Whichever way, she was out again. At least she didn't chase chickens this time. So I put her back and plugged in the fence but it wasn't popping as good as it should have been. I walked all the way around looking and listening for where it could be shorting out but I couldn't find it anywhere so I gave up and just hoped that it is hot enough to keep the dogs in their pen. I'll have another look around today. I got the stalls cleaned, the manure dumped (I starting to really like that 4-wheeler), and the horses behaved very well when I brought them in for the night, so everything was calm and quiet.
Then, at about 3:00 this morning, something woke me up. It sounded like a telephone ringing so I got up to check it out. Phone calls in the middle of the night usually are not very good. BUT I COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THAT HAD BEEN RINGING!! OOOOOH! Whatever! I'm just thankful for a somewhat calm day. This morning's chores went smoothly too so maybe I won't have anything to report tomorrow. We can only hope and pray. (-: Have a great day and I pray God's Blessings to all.
