Quite a bit. Which is lovely of course. But being the first person on duty after a snowfall also means frozen locks and doors. I had to spend a lot of time and energy on that. Especially the door to the horse stables. They were tough to get open. In the end I had to get a hammer and pry them open. After trying shovels and hot water and lots and lots of pulling. My arms are going to be sore tomorrow. Well, they already are. I can barely open a soda bottle with my left hand. I can&#8217;t twist the cap. Probably pulled a muscle or two.<\/p>\n<p>Also the water pipe was frozen. At least the rubber thingie on the end. And when I managed to get it working the built-up pressure sent a splash of water all over my face. In the freezing cold. Not fun. But when all the boring work was done I sat down with the goat kids and that <i>was<\/i> fun.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4904\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080322_magnetheskids1_th.jpg\" ALT=\"goatkids\" TITLE=\"goatkids\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4903\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080322_magnetheskids2_th.jpg\" ALT=\"goatkids\" TITLE=\"goatkids\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For every day it seems like they get more and more lively. They don&#8217;t sit still for two seconds. They are at the perfect age now, confident and curious but still tiny and soft. Just wonderful.<\/p>\n<p>And as you can see, I did wear the cap. It&#8217;s such a cool cap, Debster! That&#8217;s the problem too, though. I&#8217;m not a cool person. I was a little afraid that some gang of cool people would come up and tear the cap right off my head and throw it to the ground and stomp on it and scream &#8220;you&#8217;re not cool enough to wear a cap&#8221; in my face. But luckily that didn&#8217;t happen. I don&#8217;t even think anyone pointed and laughed. Maybe I will start wearing it permanently. It keeps the haystack fairly in check. And it was good against the sun in the bus. My eyes are sensitive to the sun. Pheasants forever, and caps too.<\/p>\n<p>Magnethe sniffed at the cap a couple of times. And the little liquorice-head nibbled at it too. Just a little. <\/p>\n<p>March 22nd and I finally got to see proper snow here in Gellerup.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-4906\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2008\/080322_gellerupsnow_th.jpg\" ALT=\"gellerup snow\" TITLE=\"gellerup snow\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Still not a huge, giant snowfall.
