Winters are very monotonous. Always have been here on the Canadian prairies where winters are long. Well, here I am again… stuck in a rut. I’m not looking for drama, not even adventure, just something… different. Really, I’m not asking for much. One day is looking a lot like the next. Oh, sure, sometimes the weather changes. That’s a topic for discussion! But it’s short lived (and not very interesting).
Every morning I rise to do the animal chores. Shovel the same manure, feed the same animals. Pour the same milk and clean the same jars. I really am thankful for my life, I wouldn’t change it for anything. But repetitive days can wear on a person until you are ready to do something outrageous! Oh, I’m not quite there yet. Sorry to disappoint you. (Unless staying up late to blog counts?) I’d like to take care of this feeling before I do something silly.
I’m really looking forward to spring, as I do every year. And, undoubtedly it will come, some time in April, hopefully. In the meantime, I need to find something different!!!
Do you ever get stuck in a rut?
Yes Marg, That’s when we take a casino bus to Winnipg!! It was great to see you!!
Yes, I do. Lately my life has been a whirlwind, to. Don’t have a solution for you tho.
That’s alot of snow! Take care.
Thanks, Patty.
It’s a lot less snow than we’ve had in previous years. I’m thankful for that!
Being in a rut means I do not have to think…that in itself makes me smile!
Have to admit that the buzzards made me smile this morning while I was “making hay” or hanging the wash as most folks call it. Yes, I am bored, tired of winter and we haven’t even had any snow to speak of…just damp nasty weather. At least you can use your sled! Miss ya .
Hi Karin! Yes, I could use my sled but I’m hard pressed to find a hill to slide down on the prairies. lol
The manure pile!
