Wrong Horse

 I sure appreciate a good night's sleep and last night was 2 in a row.  Our airbnb renters sent a message this morning that the smoke alarm was going off but she was in the shower and there was no smoke. I waited a minute sent her a message back that we would come right up as soon as she was ready. Not long after she told us it stopped.  They were getting ready to head out so we went once they left. The smoke alarm had been pulled from the ceiling with the casing broken but was still wired in. 

Mark brought in the ladder then took it down, checked it out and decided not to put it back but to get a new one up.  We have a smoke alarm in the bedroom about 10 feet away and another 2 in the apartment so all should be good. He went down to the house to order another while I cleaned the apartment for the guest coming in tomorrow morning. I can't work efficiently but slow and steady works fine. While working in the apartment the guests in the 5th wheel asked if they could stay another night but I had to turn them down, it is booked for tonight. They didn't leave until a little after 11:00 am. Mark emptied the tanks while I grabbed the laundry and took that into the apartment to wash so I could continue to clean the apartment while the laundry was going. Both the 5th wheel and the apartment were finished by 1:00 pm. Not too bad for an old lady with a new hip. Then it was time to go to the house to start our laundry. 
Yesterday Mike dropped Irish and Rosaleigh and their colts off at Middle Grove and brought back Mika, Sangria, Missy and Cookie. At least that is who he thought he brought back. I took the golf cart over to check those horses and instead of Sangria I see Jury, Rhoda's horse. Rhoda was sent a text with a picture and she sent back, "Good I'll ride her tomorrow."  Mike said Jury came right up to him and was first in the trailer so thought it was Sangria. Sangria has a big belly from colic surgery and Jury has a big belly as she is due in less than a month and both mares are Andalusian's so we understand why the mistake was made. Remember the Canada trucker convoy?   Jordan Peterson's gave an update on the person considered the number ONE political prisoner in Canada, a lady by the name Tamara Lich. She was one of the organizers of the convoy. 
After what happened to these truly peaceful protesters, how the good people of Canada supported them How Justin Trudeau called them a small fringe group while the news organizations were labeling them Nazi's and saying they were flying Confederate flags and how the money raised for the truckers was stolen, how the Canada bank system froze accounts and even though it wasn't publicized caused a run on the banks of Canada. It was good to see that these truckers really did make a difference. The video is long with a lot of ads but I found it interesting.
This evening I got the stove cleaned up and the dishes done so tomorrow should be an easy morning before leaving for church.
