Texasgranny6's Journal, 10 Jan 23

So far today I have stuck to eating goals. Challenge this evening is to keep from snacking on the goodies at the historical society meeting. I will take two cheese sticks with me and my 0 calorie sparkling water. (P.S. I almost made it: I ate celery stuffed with pimento cheese, some cheese cubes and my cheese stick, but ... someone had made a sugar free cake and I did eat a piece. Total calories for the day: 1052. macros 17/63/20. )

So far today I have walked 6134 steps, 2250 of them on my 25 minute walk. No sciatic pain while walking today! Yay! I raked up four more piles of leaves to put on my garden. After I do that tomorrow, I plan to mow the leaves on the raised beds and till the remains into the soil. I have 1/2 a bag of peat to add also. We might have rain on Friday! Today was a lovely summery day with temps in the 70s. It will be back down to 50s after our cool spell comes in Friday bringing morning temps into the 30s.

While I was raking leaves, our dog Hank, our cat Petra, and one of Merrill's cows came over to watch. They didn't offer to help! Cows are often curious about people. Once a whole herd came over to watch Merrill change a flat tire. Once a hot air balloon flew over our place and the cows came running after it. Would love to have heard their discussion of what was going on!

Cows are so funny. They are very curious. You should search Youtube for the video of cows chasing a remote control car. It's a hoot.

rhontique, yes, I have seen that video! So funny! We take for granted that they are just dumb animals, but they are surprisingly intelligent. My hubby tells a story about a cow that kept coming to the house bawling. They followed her down the pasture to the creek and found her calf had slid halfway down the bank and couldn't go up or down because of slippery mud. That was easy to fix once a human was involved! But who would have thought the mama knew to ask one for help.

I love your audience while you were working your garden. Animals often don't get credit for their intelligence.
