Mine started out OK, nice relaxed breakfast then out to drench the horses. While doing that I noticed one one them had some crap tangled in his mane. Couldn't untangle it so I reached in the top pocket of the jacket and out with the mini grip. Sliced of a bit of mane and that fixed the problem but then, the horse did what all horses can be guaranteed to do, the unexpected. He stepped sideways knocking me off balance and I dropped the mini grip. Picked it up and saw blood. Oh bugger, it's my blood. Those bloody things are SHARP out of the box! The wife convinced me, (read: easier to comply than listen to nagging), to go get a tetanus shot, been a few years since the last. So, off we go to town to visit the hospital and get a shot. Took ten minutes, no problem, so since we were in town we went to the Soldiers Club for a nice lunch and a glass of beer. Went home and read a book in front of the fire. Not a bad day all considered.
 
Sorry to hear you cut yourself. I'm glad the horse didn't get hurt though! :p Get some Show Sheen or something and stop cutting manes with your knife, you goofball!

I had such high hopes for myself today... I was gonna mow my lawn and then shower and go shopping for clothes, since none of mine fit me anymore. Instead, I was so freaking beat that I couldn't work up the energy to do any of that. I managed a brief (maybe 40 minute?) bike ride, then came back here and lay out on my back deck to try to even out my tan, then fell asleep for a few minutes until some bug bit me on the ass and woke me up and I came inside. :o

I've also been on and off the computer all day. I feel like such a sloth. However, I don't feel too bad about it because this is the FIRST day I've had off where I didn't have anything I had to do in at least two weeks and I just needed a nice quiet day to myself! I work Saturdays and have of Mondays, so I can postpone all the crap I was gonna do today for tomorrow.

Well, yeah, but ....

Only needed to lop off a small bit where it was all stuck together with some sticky crap, probably tree sap or something. No Show Sheen for these guys, they're not faggy show ponies, they're actual real working horses. :)

Here's a pic of the boy in question, just in case you're interested. :)
 
Not bad considering the 50 mph wind gusts, torrential downpours and a four hour loss of power...courtesy of that SOB Dennis.
"Smoke" finishing 3rd at Chicagoland helped some too.
