Breaking through

The sun was trying to break through the clouds after a night of cold rain.Goats do not go out in cold rain, so these does were looking for breakfast. There is still some grass to graze and I had dropped out hay earlier in the morning, they are headed back to the barn for a bite of grain.The cold winter weather has made it hard to work outside so I have done some inside cleaning and throwing away.Have you ever known an old woman that rinses out every glass jar, saves every newspaper, milk jug, feed bag? Not to mention 3 barns full of wool and mohair fleeces. It's hard for me to let go of things.So I am taking some time off from going to so many shows and breeding so many sheep and goats, to get organized and just throw away.And to rest and enjoy the simple things like the seasons, not to just endure them and wait for them to pass.I have to make some changes so that I have that time again.
