Attention: Whine alert.
I am sitting here with damp hair. Because I just got out of the shower. After spending ALL DAY moving wet earth in pouring, cold rain. Because the Fjord's paddock wasn't draining and her stall was flooding. Which we knew was a problem IN THE SPRING. But SOMEONE (who has a defective Y chromosome and is SUPPOSED to be in charge of things like moving earth) kept putting it off and putting it off until the poor pony had a mess to live in. So this morning (yep, it started at feeding the ponies time), I finally flipped out and took care of it my own darned self. About four hours into it, SOMEONE was shamed into helping (which is good, because that someone is way better with the tractor than I am), but I was solely responsible for moving the earth with the shovel. Five bucket loads redistributed throughout two paddocks. I am tired, I am sore, and I AM CRANKY.
Good thing it's pizza at Nana's tonight. She'll give me wine and force me to be nice.
Whine over. Thank you for listening.
