The New Routine?



I always kind of assumed Maisie would be the sheep that broke me, but I miss Willard more than I can even say.  I miss all of my old friends...more than I can say, but I think Willard has maybe been the hardest because he was such a big part of my daily routine for so long.

I miss walking up to the barn in the dark with my flashlight or seeing the light on in Easy Breezy at night.  It's not that I don't have a reason to get up in the morning now, but it's just not the same.  I still take my coffee and go sit in the wash room and try to answer emails...with Archie's help...but answering emails isn't always a very inspiring way to start the day, especially with Archie's help.

It's getting lighter earlier now and the last few days I've taken the dogs for an early morning walk rather than waiting until after morning chores.  I carry my coffee out to the field and it's been pretty nice.  It beats sitting at a desk working on a computer for sure.  This morning I thought maybe this should just be my new routine.  

So if you're looking for an email from me... ;-).

Amos is beautiful. Love that all 3 of your new creatures accompany you on the walk. The circle of life rolls on.

It's pretty messed up isn't it? The connection we can have with critters and the "hoof print" they leave on our hearts is real. That you are missing him & them means you have a good heart~

Great idea! Play a little, work a little, play some more :D

I think all new routines come from a joyous or a sad event. It is the heart’s reaction to changes in our lives.
Perhaps this new routine will help with healing. Your companions will certainly help.

I think it's a lovely, calm way to begin the day. As you say more light in the morning, have a good walk and then everyone is ready for breakfast and a snooze.

Then maybe you could answer your emails in peace. If only.
