, sometimes driving around looking at preoperty makes you feel better

Uh, no. Even on good days he doesn't like looking:')

[CindyDawg]

Sorry to hear about your kitties.

[HairOfTheDog]

His ears are better!

Dang our weather... it was pouring so hard we took pity on the horses and brought them in early and fed dinner. Now it's stopped raining and is sunny, and won't be dark for two hours.

~bangs head on desk~

Is getting off a horse at the end part of a competition or can you embaress yourself privately. I was just wondering because I read HOTDs post and after a couple of hours I drag my right leg over and my knees like jello too.

A horse community. I didn't even know there was such a thing:')

LOL - well you have to take of the tack to vet the horse in, it would be hard to do if you didn't get out of the saddle.

I wouldn't worry, they don't ~stay~ that way too long ;~D and you aren't the first person they've seen that poured out of the saddle into a puddle ;~D

[CindyDawg]

I've been looking at acreage on the net. It's depressing. Land cheaper in NY than here. I see some really good buys in west Texas though:')

[CindyDawg]

My second concern. After sliding off my saddle and making a puddle:')

[CindyDawg]

I'm waiting for my husband to get better and then I'm going to talk with him about the 40 year. I know he'll go into his Fred Sanford routine though. I have another bank question though if you don't mind. My new job has a different bank. I usually just cash my checks but there is a couple of days delay now so I opened a checking account up. I haven't written a check in probably over a year. Today I wrote one at a convience store for gas. The clerk gave me a receipt to sign. I told her I was not charging but she told me it was for my check and then gave me my check back after running it thru. I was concerned I got charged twice but she assured me I didn't. What's this about?

The horse that I usually ride at my barn is at the bottom of the food chain, that's for certain. There's a boss mare that guards him and tries to run off anyone that goes to catch him. She'll beat up on him if he's first to the gate, and last week she actually ran to the gate that she thought that we were going out of and stood guard. I faked her out and used the other one. :-) Is there any way that you can move sara lee to a new paddock? Is this alpha horse new?

[CindyDawg]

She's new. Sarah Lee at the bottom too. She gets tested a lot but this one the worse. I don't know where else I could put her.

[Beaker]

There's a compound on my street. The land is huge and they've got at least three or four small cabins on there, and I think a barn. I don't know if I could live with family that close, we'd probably kill eachother. ;-)

[CindyDawg]

It's funny. My husband and my sons have those concerns. The DILs and I think it's worth considering:') They all have got to get their own places. We need our space but 5-10 acrea apart might not be so bad.

I have no idea Cindy, why would she give you the check back?

[CindyDawg]

I don't know. It was weird. I signed the receipt like when you charge something and she gave it back to me.

[Beaker]

I adore target shooting when I can get the chance to go. (Which isn't very often at all) I remember the first time I went to the range I was about 13 years old, and I since I have really sensitive hearing, the noise nearly drove me out of my mind, and I had to go sit in the car. I felt like a fool. Last time I went it was father's day. I wore a set of ear plugs and a set of mickey mouse ears and I was fine.
I don't have a LTC because I don't have time to take the course and go through all the red tape. Maybe that'll be my summer project. At any rate, here's a pic

[tuffydoodle]

I know the answer to this one, it's a new thing that some businesses do. They run the check through a system that checks to see if you have the money in your account and the transaction immediately goes through. Bad thing for the consumer, if you need to buy something Thursday night, knowing you'll get your paycheck on Friday before the check goes through, you can't get away with that anymore. They give you your check back when finished and it's your cancelled check, like you get once a month from the bank.

I wish I was as skinny as you.
