The Kiss
“- check pigsty—ugh The last chore of the day coincided with the last rays of the day. Georgiana could easily have put it off. But then with her gown already dirty from examining the new drainage ditch on the northeast corner, and from bits of wax and honey from the apiary, when would she ever find a better time? And there was no possible way she could leave this for Father. It was getting harder and harder for him to do anything other than check the ledgers.
Georgiana's shoulders sagged at the ...sight of the pigsty. They really were going to have to do something about that new man they'd hired. The reworked trough was an abomination. It was uneven; the bottom quite obviously had a gaping edge. Slops were piling under it and the pigs appeared underfed.
There was no use trying to find someone to help her. She had sent everyone home early as the wind was up, the barometer down, and an ugly storm brewed on the horizon.
There was nothing to do but manage it on her own. Wasn't that the way it usually went anyway?MoreLess
