Well it's the weekend again and that weekend where the clocks change. Anyone looking forward to it. Is it the weekend where your winter routine starts.
Fortunately for me it's no different really as the boys are out. Except that I must now ride mornings. Although since my lads injury and time off I've got lazy at getting up. I was getting up at 6 to ride. As the mornings got darker it went to 6.30. Then for a few weeks I havent got up till after 7.30. This week I should of been back riding but I couldnt motivate myself. I just checked the cows, fed cat and sheep and went to work.
I'm looking out now and it's almost 8 and it's still a bit dark. This time tomorrow it will be light.
I need to start getting up again at 6 to be able to fit in a ride as evenings are now not possible. I have to be back by 8am from my ride rather than just setting off. Otherwise its extremely late before I go to work. I will only be able to do that for a month then they will get moved to there bottom field as it will be back to dark at almost 8 like it is today. Once they move to the bottom field I can just lunge Monday to Friday. I can lunge in the field in the dark. Riding and driving only at weekends.
Today's weather is a complete wash out, it is supposed to be rain all day. So I think today is paperwork and a trip into town to finally go and get myself my new trainers for running. My feet are killing me now we are back running 10ks on a Thursday night. I need some supportive trainers. Tomorrow is looking nice so I will be riding and putting up temporary electric fence ready for getting the cows in next weekend for the next TB test.
