So today I took 2 baby pot-bellied pigs out to the barn. Up until this morning they were living in my bathtub, being bottle-fed until last week and I have slowly been weaning them off of the bottle. They are currently eating 3 or 4 times a day...milk and scraps, but mostly oatmeal or bread...they love that!!! I had to move them to the barn because they are really starting to smell. They like taking a bath, however, I really needed to get them outside so that they didn't forget that they were pigs.
Today, I also moved some of my lillies and basil. I am hoping to build a new chicken coop and then turn my current chicken coop into a potting shed. I can't wait. I have so much stuff that I would like to do outside, but really have nowhere to do it.
I also worked on cleaning out the barn. There's a lot of poop and hay to get cleaned up after the winter. I got a small section done. I have to take breaks from all of that shoveling. I also cleaned out the shelterhouse and worked on cleaning out my flowerbeds. Got the yard picked up a little bit and fixed one of my chimes that got broken over the winter.
Spring is a wonderful time of year and I look forward to it so very much, but it is also a great deal of work. I have 3, maybe 4, field trips scheduled for the Farm already this year. I'm looking forward to them, but just have a lot of stuff to do.
