"cold" and crazy

Boy it is already wednesday and im sore and tired! It has been crazy at TGR for the past couple of days!
Monday I arrived at work with the news that we are moving all the animals indoors because it is going to get too cold outside for them. When i heard that my heart sunk a little. First of all there really isn't that much room inside. We have two garages and a kitchen for keeping animals inside. For the past little bit the 6 sloths and 5 tams/lesser ant-eaters have been inside because it has been too cold for them, and that has not been fun! We have to keep it hot in there so they don't freeze and they smell so bad. So when i heard that we are bringing in more animals i really wasn't excited... but i knew we had to do it. So monday was the day that i had my patience tried. We had to get the lemurs, porcupines, capybaras, sloths and tams into crates and take them inside. Seriously the whole day was spent waiting for animals to go into their crates. We don't want to loose the trust of the animals or teach them to hate and be afraid of crates, because that would make our job a lot more difficult, so we put food inside and let the animals take their sweet time going in. and boy did they take their time :) well we eventually got everyone inside and situated to their new cages for the next 10 days... yep that's right 10 days with everyone inside...
Tuesday, day one of ten
It was raining today and windy... holy cow i have never seen it blow so much or so hard! definitely different from logan weather! Once arriving at TGR i immediately started sweating, it was so hot inside! i was dying of heat so i volunteered to go and do the outside things. The camels, lamas, kune kune pigs, kangaroos, and bear cats are all tough enough to withstand the cold so i went out to clean their cages and feed them and such. On my way out to the lamas i saw two horses in sam chuck (the HUGE camels) and male lama's pen. Well we don't have horses. The neighbor's horses had broken a fence and gotten in, not a good thing! i ran back and got Kim and Noel to come out and help. It took us a good hour and a half to get the crazy mad horses into a separate pen, fix the fence and try not to get trampled by the camels. Boy what an adrenaline rush that was! and what a way to start the morning! I'm glad to say that no animals or people got hurt! Well that threw off the whole day, all of the animals were going crazy from that and that made tasks a lot more difficult to do. But the day finished.I was tired and sore, from lifting and rearranging animals, by the end of the day but felt good about how much we accomplished!
Today i don't work and am very thankful for the opportunity to rest up before going back to the mad house! but i just got to keep thinking to myself 8 more days until the animals go out and things go back to normal :)
