Saturday March 26

Cloudy, cool morning ... morning run and a little mowing, little Mattie shows up in time for breakfast ...feed and kennel. Out again after postprandial rest, mow, joined by husband on tractor ... actually getting one side cleared when whoops,  get flat tire. Back to shed to get fix-a-flat, get sidetracked by phone call, go inside with dogs, whoops, the Damcat is on the couch... dogs including Banshee trot by without a glance, the Damcat then decides to make a break for the safe end of the trailer and scoots by them, Banshee turns to follow, call her and let dogs out again, back in  check weather, the rain is near ... go out for quick foray on other mower, halfway down hill starts raining. Husband gets fix a flat and goes to rescue other mower, I return to trailer, let slightly damp dogs in. Thunder grumbling, light rain, husband returns and takes nap, rain gets heavier .. off and on all day .. every time it stops and I try to take dogs out it starts again ... brush Corey, clip DB and Corey's nails, brush Snoopy ... take Banshee on enclosed porch to brush her (she's started to blow her undercoat, early, I guess because of warm weather we had) ...while I'm brushing her a big storm blows up, husband comes out with other dogs and says kennel them NOW, rush to kennels with food, Snoopy wont go in her kennel, crawls under shed ... finally get her to go in shed, but she's scared of storms,won't eat but half her food, hides in her crate ... so leave her in shed, others in kennels, will get her out later hopefully ... big band of storms coming ... did manage to go out during break in weather and with Corey and husband's help, coax Snoopy out of shed and into kennels. More storms expected tonight, Snoopy is usually OK once she is actually IN her kennel and can hide in her doghouse ... but oh, weather like this makes me long for the day when my husband finally gets my 'real' kennels built...
