Yesterday was the first I ever went black Friday shopping-
Kath and I headed straight to Tractor Supply and picked up bird seed, chicken
scratch, goat supplements, paint brushes, stall mats, a metal garbage can, and a
bale of pine shavings.
When we got home we walked out to the stable and began
painting the new repairs that our carpenter had made to the sliding doors and
stall window last week. Then Kath cleaned out the tack room while I walked back towards the house to
the goat pens to rake them out.
It was mid afternoon when Kath tacked up Zip for a quick walk
around, and I lazily rode the old man (Lou) around the pastures to keep his
creaky bones exercised. Not to leave Pat out, I put him on a lead and took him
up the drive where the grass is still green and let him feast for a bit.
Life isn’t too complicated. It might not be easy, but it sure
beats the traffic of cars and money.
