Chicken with its' Head Cut Off

That's what I have felt like this week, running around like a chicken with its' head cut off. I have been crazy busy this week because Farmer's Markets have opened. I am a procrastinator and wait until the last minute to wrap soaps, shampoo bars, lip balms, milk baths and put the eggs into the clear cartons. Yesterday, my favorite market opened so I was frantically wrapping things from 7:30am-1:30pm, got to market at 2:30pm and got home at 7:30pm. I was so rushed I didn't have time to strain and bag the goat's milk so I fed it to the chickens yesterday morning. They really loved it too, had it all over their feathers. Good thing that I had the day off from training yesterday.

I had to move goats into the other pasture, worm and trim hooves this week too. The worst smell in the entire world is impacted goat hoof crap. Just thinking about it can make me gag. When I trim their hooves, I have to scrape out all the dirt, poop and whatever resides in there. Think toe jam x 1000. Not a pleasant job. I also culled about 15 little roosters this week. I'll be watching for the chicken truck rooster God when I'm riding this weekend. I probably pissed him off again by killing those 'roos.

I have been training my butt off. I have been following my plan like a good triathlete. I hope all this work pays off, I'll have about 17 hours of training for this week. I'm going to White Lake this weekend with Jessica for a practice bike and swim. I finally got a wet suit, half the workout is getting the wetsuit on! The wetsuit is so tight, it actually makes me look like I have boobs because it squeezes them out the sides. I get hysterical trying to put the damn thing on, I fear I have to take it off because I'm laughing so hard I have to pee. Aero bars are also being installed on my bike so I have to go to the bike shop today to get fitted.

Better go do my swim at the pool. I'm not dead yet, I feel fine, I feel happy!
