Well it is Friday. I seem to like to post on Fridays. Hmmmm.. Maybe because I want the week to be over? probably. This week has been long. And now the week will be longer. Will be working on weekends now at Walmart. Doesnt seem too hard or even to use alot of brain power but will be busy, so that is good. We are supposed to get the 's' word (snow) next week. I guess we have been putting off winter for long enough. Time to come! Last night i was planning on going over to Pursley's where Lady is at. Michele is fostering her (thank you Michele)and i have been there to help (?)ok, just watch Michele ride Lady. We are going to get quite a few rides on her before either Midwest and the fund Raiser next June. I am hoping for a family to get her! she is doing very well, just needs more practice! She is so beautiful and caring. I am so surprised someone hasnt adopted her yet! She will be 20 years old and has impeccable ground manners. Only has been ridden the indoor arena and a few times in the outside round pen. Michele has done a great job with her on ground training, but hopefully Rebecca can really get her finished. She is an awesome horse and loves to be messed with.
We will be finding out in December if we get to go to Midwest again this year. This would be my 5th year in going. We have such a great time and I get quite a few donations! But other rescues want to be included and Midwest Horse Fair is really geared in accepting the breeds. So we may not be accepted. But i hope so! It took me 2 years of pleading with the board and they finally let me in. If they have extra stalls why not? Brings in more money for them. So cross your fingers.
So anyhow, Harley update. He is gaining but still so slowly. I have to give him bute with a syringe. He hates meds or powdered meds or anything foreign in his grain. So that is hard. he was a bit funny last night. Like I said I was supposed to go see Lady and Michele last night. Harley comes into the barn with a ton of burr's in his mane and tail! His tail was like a ball and there were so many burrs in his mane, i couldnt see hair anymore! Oh yes, I have time to clean you up boy! the places where I have that many burrs for him is behind the barn, so he has to walk through weeds to get through it. Wondering where he is going?? He doesnt usually stray that far. What a goof! and he really hates when I mess with him while he is eating. Puts back his ears and threatens to bite me. Dr. jean called last night saying all blood work was normal. Why isnt he eating and gaining more?? boy, if i could give him a feeding tube and dump a few hundred pounds of food into him i would! he may be in a bit more pain than i think.
Will be a nice weekend! Get a ride in before the 's' flies!! Yikes!
Take care-
