My Partner is Delight

Time Warp
I experienced a time warp today.
I went outside at 11AM this morning to check on all of our animals, fill water troughs, feed chickens.
When I came inside it was almost 3PM!
I had totally forgotten about lunch, thirst, and restroom breaks.
It was 55* today. The birds were singing. The air was fresh. The sun was shining. I decided to brush muddy horses. I started with Spinner, then it was Delight's turn.
I never got another horse groomed.
I decided to give Delight the Spa treatment. I brushed her. She is starting to shed, so I curried her. Then I decided her feet and legs were dirty so I hosed them off.
I noticed she was sweating on her chest a little on this warm day, so I hosed it off too. I figured if she was sweating she was warm enough to get a little wet, right?
See where this is going yet?
I shampooed her tail and her mane and rinsed them. I washed her face with a wet towel. Everything got washed but her mid section. I combed out her tail and mane. I even broke out the Show Sheen.
Poor Delight.
Before I knew it my horse was Mostly Clean and my day was Mostly Gone.
I love it when that happens.
