I made a trip to the grocery store at 8am and roads were a little slick but very drivable.
Got home and started a pot of Arrow Pilot Taco soup (why I went to store )
Built a fire for the wife
Then worked on going through closet that I started on Saturday
Outside to haul off 3 trailer loads of branches to the pasture, the wife wanted cut out of the yard Saturday
Grabbed a little lunch at 1300
Worked on more stuff in the house
Got tired of that and put some warm clothes on and headed to check the feeder ~1630. Watched 3 deer for nearly an hour, then a spike was slipping in but something caught his attention.
Sow and 5 good sized shoats (was 6 a few weeks ago ) showed up. Sow finally stood still long enough and I popped her.
Went back and got 4 wheeler to go look for her and check some other things out.
Made it back to house right at dark, closed chickens up and fed horse and goats.
Came in and changed and had big bowl of soup.
No reason to go crazy here, not letting temps in the 20's bother me
Work cancelled tomorrow, no telling what the wife has planned to go through/organize but I may have to sneak out and try and kill a coyote with the Foxpro

I got bacon, Canadian bacon, and cheese in the smokehouse I keep checking on. Just finished making some chicken and dumplins. Tomorrow I'm making a big pot of beans and maybe some gumbo. Im also grinding and stuffing summer sausage and snack sticks. Then I'll smoke them on Tuesday. Life is good!

Hasn't really stopped me from doing anything yet. It's cold but you get used to it after a bit. I much prefer cold over heat. Of course, we arent as cold as yall are up north. We will see when it hits 8 deg. May change my mind.
It is a pain having to haul water to the chickens and horse. Had to drain all the water lines except the house.
