Today I . . . .

• Boiled the coffee percolator dry. (I still haven't peeked inside. I guess we'll know the status when I make coffee in the morning.)
• Felt my new meds kick in (better living through pharmaceuticals)!
• Cut and fed raw venison to the dogs twice.
  
• Did $90 worth of work for Chicken Mama's Graphic & Web Design.
• Checked 5 of my broody hen's discarded eggs to see which weren't fertilized and which had wee babes in them. (Five was all I could handle for today.)
  
• Vacuumed every nook and cranny of the stairway and repaired the places where the rug was coming up.
• Put a dead duck (Miss Black Duck with the White Bib) on top of the car so that the dogs wouldn't get to her until I could drive out tomorrow and dump the carcass. (Found her dead in the poultry yard this AM.)
• Battled with the washing machine which decided to stop draining water. (While the king-sized down comforter was in it.)
• Took down one load of wash and hung another on the line.
• Got the down comforter dried and fluff, fluff, fluffed.
• Stripped the bed and put on line-dried sheets. (Aaaah, can you smell 'em?) Oh, and the newly clean down comforter.
• Vacuumed up many flies in the bedroom.
• Cleaned the monster tub upstairs, that toilet, and vacuumed that bathroom's floor. What's the only bad thing about that monster-sized tub we had to have? Yup, scrubbing it.
• Transplanted two big clumps of lupines and one large clump of Sweet William from the new field garden that my dad plowed up a couple of days ago (Thanks, Daddy!).
• Wore my headnet during all of the above-mentioned outside tasks.
  
• Got disappointed that Tom's 1:00 interview went extremely well but that they have to wait for June's profits / losses to come in before they can decide whether or not they can fill this position.
• Picked ticks off both Maisy & Tucker.
• Annnnnnd . . . well, that's enough, right?!
