Keeping Busy to Avoid Bickering

Some days it is enough to make it through with everyone still alive.  We have had several of those kinds of day this week.  Other days, you actually manage to scratch a few items of your always long to-do list.  Today, thankfully, was one of these.

We started our morning off with a solid hour of snow shovelling after we accidentally broke the snowblower by running over the rope from the hay sled.  Ian was not impressed.

We are completely out of bread so we mixed up some dough for fresh loaves tomorrow.

We got a grain delivery today and filled up all our bins with fresh, delicious oats, alfalfa and dairy goat pellets.

We thawed a hen and made a delicious dinner of roasted chicken with couscous salad complete with homemade lemon-mint dressing.

It was a stay-at-home kind of day but with all the time outside and getting some chores done, we managed to keep the bickering at a minimum without the need for another 5 km hike.  I wonder what tomorrow has in store for us; only time will tell.
