Day 75 - Some days.

The days are beginning to blur into each other again. Clever bird is finding it a bit difficult to a) know what day of the week it is and b) to cope with the main gang member, Grotty Groom, still being out of action. As far as Baggy's stomach recovery goes, Clever Bird feels sure that Grotty could cope with her duties once more. She still has three more weeks to go before she is "permitted" to safely do so again though. Baggy's arm on the other hand isn't even close to being ready for Grotty's duties. It just all seems to be taking such a long time. But patience as they say, is a virtue. It's so hard not even being able to do anything with the Boys though, so Grotty has barely even visited them. Joey is pretty laid back, but seeing Wesley for just a short while, upsets Grotty and Wesley. Perhaps once Baggy's stepmother's funeral is over on Tuesday, Baggy will feel more inclined to take Grotty over to spend some proper time with them. She could start to do some loose work or long-reining with the Boy if  Baggy's arm can take it.

 
Today though has been a bit of a non-day. Minty Mutt has had a short walk. Furry Mama had planned a long one and dragged her number one furry, her husband Calum along, but it was so muddy that we called it a day after half-an-hour. The Domestic Goddess got the fire going. Then she raided the freezer to rustle up some supper. But that bloggees is about it. Some days are just really not that interesting. The only moment of "excitement" was when Clever Bird spotted a HUGE slug crawling across the kitchen floor. In broad daylight too! They normally only show their ugly, squidgy little faces in the dead of night. Clever Bird was horrified that they might be moving indoors permanently. She decided to remove the little critter and to put him back outside where he belongs, only to realise that it was not a slug. It was a piece of potato peel that The Goddess had dropped on the way to the bin. Some days.........
