7 am
Bunny
rabbit bunny rabbit bunny rabbit for the first of the month.
Boy I
am in a sour mood. Seems like I should be ever so happy to be here at the farm
in Clarksburg with no bunnies (speaking
of which) to feed, no Tigger to deal with, away from anything that needs doing
at home. I guess it must be a hold over from being so darn tired yesterday. I
woke up (a few minutes ago) feeling hung over. From nothing. I ate an omelette
for supper and nothing after. Left around 8:30 finally after feeding buns,
packing, washing the dishes, gathering tools for brush cutting. So that got me
here around 10, then I chatted around the fire they had built on the “tennis
court.” It was only my generation there. The kids are coming today sometime, I
don’t know if Mom is here, she usually gets up pretty early and I have not
heard anything. K was in a royal funk last night. He came back from whatever he
had to do at the other house (clean out the fridge I think) at around 6 and
looked terrible. I had to show a potential renter our room then I made the
omelets, which we ate while he looked miserable. He was just really really tired
and fed up from such a hard week. So he finally confessed that he really wanted
to go to a friend’s for a beer. Which is fine, but I didn’t want to wait until
this morning to drive up, since I must get this butt in the roaster soon. I was
thinking that I needed to get it in around 6, but that is bc I was thinking it
was 7# when it is really more like 5. So I think if I get it in by 8 that will
be fine. It might take as long as 10 hours, but maybe less. I packed it with
“rub” (lots of jokes about rubbing butts…) yesterday before work so it is ready
to go. I’ll do it after I write.
I think
I am also suffering after a really hard week. Such a big switch over this year
from my lovely peace and quiet to being pretty overwhelmed with everything I
must do. And not getting much of any help from the prof who is really busy. I
am pretty much on my own to just figure it out. I pretty much figured out the
ordering and ordered the hearts and kidneys that we need. There is more needed,
but not til later so there is time for that. I got all the respiration
equipment pulled out and put together one set up with the computer. Now I just
“just” have to figure out how to use it all. I go the plain flow rate going ok,
but the flow vs volume did not do what it is supposed to, and I have no idea
about the whole Co2 monitor and heart rate set ups. And that is just the
respiration which I have used before. I have not even started with the cardio
stuff. I had wanted to get started with all this over the summer, but the
retiring instructo was very dismissive. Well now I pay the price. So it is
amazingly busy, and then the students will arrive… and then there will be
grading…. I would really like to go over the labs with an eye for what they
need to actually do and turn in. so far I have been going over them with an eye
for what materials are needed. Ok. Well I won’t go in Mon, then Tues I will
need to hit the road running. And I do have stuff with me so I can do some
here. And even with my lovely computer!!!!!
There
was a beautiful mist everywhere earlier this morning. I should have been
appreciative of it. And the hydrangea are in their full glory. Apparently the
new windmills can be seen from the lower field, and I could have seen them on
top of the mountain if I had looked which I didn’t. That will be kind of odd.
