Gotta Get Excited About Something...

Sigh..this week has just been something.
Sigh...I really got nothing.
Sigh...it has really just been one thing after another and I'm exhausted.
Sigh...I just gotta get excited about something.
Sigh.

There is just so much going on in the next few days. Tonight is just the start of it all. Since I won't have my normal house cleaning, laundry, get ready for the rest of the weekend time, it is all getting shoved in with the rest of tonight's festivities. So my evening's to-do-list looks pretty non-exciting: Laundry, dishes, clean house, get packed for tomorrow, etc., etc., etc. Nothing fun or exciting. OH, and then there is hay tonight. 100 bales to move. Sigh.

Tomorrow, Kenzie and I have to work. We have our Annual Prospect Cattle, Lamb, Goat and Hog Show at the fairgrounds. We have to be on location about 35 minutes away all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at 7:30. So besides getting up and going, we have chores and to finish getting everything ready to go. We are in work mode with the lambs and goats until 4 p.m. Our job isn't too hard. We are the Superintendents along with two other co-workers and our job entails weighing all animals, setting up the classes, running the show and making sure that everything runs smoothly. Knowing Makenzie, she is going to refuse to nap at all with all of the commotion going on around her...she is going to be exhausted by the time we are done. Thankfully, we have a lot of friends that want to see Muchkin Little, so she should stay pretty well entertained all day. Afterwards, we don't get to head home. We are headed to Denver for the Rockies game. It should be a lot of fun. I just have a feeling we are all going to be utterly exhausted by the time we get to our seats.

Sunday. No rest of the weary. Hopefully, fingers, toes and eyes crossed, the homestead will be dried up. We need to work in the garden big time. And the ever loving Honey-Do List is over three miles long. So, somehow, someway I need to find the motivation to buckle down and get a few things knocked off.

With everything that has happened this week, I just don't know where it is going to come from. The "umph" just isn't there. Somehow, I gotta find it again. Maybe, I'll feel like talking about it all later. Right now, I just don't want to. That is about all I've got at the moment. Kindof depressing, I know. But I was hoping to get a little excited about something. Guess I'm just not there yet...

  1. You don't need to have the umph this weekend, as you sound like you are going to be extremely busy!!! I hope you enjoyed the game! Sunday, just look to see what is the most important thing to get done, and just do that! Take enough time to relax, so that you don't start the week tired!
    I know what you can be excited about - me coming to visit you and M! I can hardly wait, I am so excited to visit! How would you like to spend a day and night with me in Steamboat, and have Jake pick you up on Sunday? Would it be too much? let's talk about it! You and M can spend the night in the trailer with me!!! lol

  2. We'll have to see. Those clinics seem really busy and I don't think Kenzie will be still long enough to really grasp what you guys are doing. Plus with all the rain, I need to take advantage of all the nice days we get. But we can see
