Saturday…

Well, I was occupied all day with domestic duties. First task of the day was to go and pick up a trailer load of firewood. After a fifty minutes drive I arrived at this farm in the middle of nowhere and had my trailer filled up.

Wow, that was a lot of firewood! ?

So i used all my knowledge on strapping (does that sound cheesy?) and after a while I was good to go. Kind of.

I used more than fifty minutes on the detour! But finally I arrived at home and backed the trailer in to the driveway and set it all up for … a manual unload!

Now that surely took some time too!

But after a couple of hours all the firewood was piled up down in my basement.

Then it was time for a bite and soon I found myself in the stable where I spent the rest of the day caring for the horses.

Yep, I slept well tonight!

But how about Sunday? I had no scheduled plans but the weather forecast didn’t look promising. No wind, a tad above freezing and heavy fog. A quick look out the bedroom window before I hit the sack revealed no wind, below zero and … no fog. I went to bed with my fingers crossed! ?

But all in vain ?

Another quick look out of the bedroom window in the morning and I could check all three….

✅ No wind

✅ +1°C

✅ Heavy fog

The weather forecast was spot on, unfortunately. And it was supposed to be just like that all day long. Something I can verify right now. Miserable out there.

But….

The weather forecast for tomorrow looks kind of promising!

Now this weather forecast looks like flying
Now this weather forecast looks like flying

I also happen to leave work kind of early tomorrow and if I pack my stuff into the car today, I might get a couple of hours before it’s too dark out there!

Fingers crossed everybody! ?
