Was so tired.

It doesn't take much to kick my legs out from under me.  It was a reasonable effort, this morning, though.  I tried to get to bed around noon, but it took until 14:00... give or take smaller change.  I woke at around 20:00.

Ducks.  Always, as soon and quickly as possible, I get out, do a head count, and shut them in.  Usually food in with them, but not tonight... or yet.  It is snowing.  Their food was out in a container in the yard and got all wet.  It snowed and rained tonight.  It was falling out of the trees by the snowball!  Ugh, as if I took a shower, just being out a minute or two.  And, yes, one hit exactly correctly to melt down from the back of my neck to my chill factor!  Wee!

I will probably get them food before too long.  For the next days or week, until this stops, I'll keep their food in the hutch.  I have been getting them water, so far, about three times a day.  It isn't all completely fresh, there isn't a lot of it, but it... is staying unfrozen with the frequent refilling... Actually, I should dump it at night.  No reason to put water in with them.  They don't use it when it is dark, and it will be frozen by dawn.

It was 18 degrees, as a starter, most of this morning.  I didn't see pre and just post sunup, this was later, say about 08:30~09:00... or so.  Oh, and it is a very wet snow, from being intermingled with rain, or raining first, or... whatever.  Unfortunately, there isn't enough for the plow to really take.  Or even a shovel?  It's pretty thin.  

It's sort of just a nasty thing.  More like an October thing, usually.  While we haven't had a summer, late fall and early winter have been strangely mild.  Next week is supposed to warm up again.  It should have turned, snowed us in maybe a bit, then now be a mostly hard cold, closed for winter, sort of thing.  I'll take it though.  I love my winter, I just have things I am trying to do.

As for work?  Like it or not, after I get waken, if I am definitely up, I will get out and begin working.  I am pretty sure I can get the last three panels done, plus remove the other panels, and hopefully get one of the cages pretty much installed.  I think I can, at least, when I begin work.  I know.  I'm so rough.  I do what I can, which has been very darned little.  Later.
