Change is approaching fast, but the details are still to be finalized. Our job here will end in just five weeks and we have nothing lined up for after. There's our twenty acres of bare land three hours away, but aside from that? The days are flying by so fast and I feel like I'm getting nothing done.
It's the end of February. Summer has been warm and dry, with just 30mm of rain so far this year. Our calves have eaten the grass in their paddock down to the dirt. The boss is overcharging us for the hay because he knows we need it.
On Wednesday evening Mummy ran off the road driving home from town. Just ten minutes from home. When we got to the scene the car was partially through a fence with a post jammed underneath it, having gone over the wrong lane, down into the ditch, and hit a powerpole on the way. The car is a write off. Mummy was able to walk away with only minor injuries. We got so, so lucky with this. Just an inch less or a second more and I'd be telling a very different story today.
On a more positive note, Skuggi's agility training is going well. I finally sent in his registration this week, so hopefully next month we'll be able to compete! His assistance dog training is going great too and he had his first outing to a big city (Geelong) this month. Mummy and me and Sparkie are also flying to Sydney next week for a Doterra convention.
