Tomorrow night is supposed to bring us an Arctic blast of frigid air, with highs in the single digits and snow.
I tried to accomplish some preparations before it hits.
I split a couple of loads of firewood for the wood stove should the electricity go out!
I hung some outdoor Christmas decorations in case it doesn’t warm back up!
Then my Big Task for the day… clearing off the straw we had used to protect our freshly poured concrete. A little contemplation, and I decided to gather up the tarp underneath the straw into a “parachute”.
Worked like a charm!
That wasn’t hard!
I pulled into the corral, dropped a couple of strings… and it dumped onto the ground!
If all my Big Tasks would be this simple, oh, how easy my life would be!
That’s a ranch woman for you – working smarter not harder!!!!

Hi Carol,
Our temps are suppose to drop too. Single digits. I know you will get more snow. I will keep you and yours in my prayers. Sewed a fleece blanket to the underside of horse blanket to put on older mare. This won’t be fun.
LOL… very similar to the old muck sack used to clean stalls 🙂
