Diary of A Country Morning

7:45 Let dogs out before they pee themselves.

7:50 Feed dogs.  Not a moment's peace until this is done.  Ringo is always starving to death.

8:00 Get coffee started.  Must...have....coffee....

8:05 Feed cats. CiCi is now screaming up a racket because she is STARVING.

8:10 Crack a few guinea eggs and fry up some sausage for breakfast.  Toast a few slices of bread too. Hubby is whimpering --he is also starving.  Dogs are watching him eat.  Because they are still starving.

8:40 Clean up kitchen and do dishes.

9:10 Pack lunch for hubby. So he doesn't starve later at work.

9:15 Start a load of laundry. Need clothes for work.

9:25 Clean guinea keets brooder - change paper towel bedding, fresh water, fresh food. Lots of peeping --starving, of course.

9:40 Clean cat litter boxes in house.
(Yes, I do this almost every.single.day. Litter boxes are so EWW!)

9:50 Get dressed, head outside to clean coop - just a quick clean of window area, "temporary" saw horse roost and top of nesting boxes every other day.  Ringo checks out chickens and causes mass panic.

10:05 Fill large pan with water - boil for ice tea. I am addicted to ice tea!

10:10 Throw clothing into dryer. So we have clothes for work.

10:15 Let dogs out again.

10:20 New post for blog.
Review possible giveaway items for September's country giveaway.

In the meantime, hubby has watched a little Good Morning America, ate his breakfast, got dressed and headed outside to let the guineas out of the coop, feed the {starving} horses and water the garden and other miscellaneous plants that are shriveled up due to our drought.  He has also worked on the garage renovation a little bit, as he does almost every morning.

10:30 Remove boiling water from stove - add tea bags to steep for my ice tea.

10:35 Re-package return of two tops to Anthropologie.
Moment-of-weakness purchase due to peer pressure from my Anthro-geek sister!

10:40 Add water to trays in incubator -- 24 guinea eggs this time.

10:45 Read and respond to a few emails.  Read my email newsletter from Copyblogger. Great website with a wealth of information.  Check it out when you have time!

11:00 Time to start getting ready for work!

Tomorrow morning we'll do it all again,
with a few minor variations. 

Because, of course,
everyone will be STARVING again!!
