I noticed that you’ve put Bay back in his Kimberwicke. How is he doing with it? I’m supposed to go to the barn this week before the weekend when I normally go, but dangit I’m so tired, and it’s only Tuesday. I’ll probably go Wednesday... or maybe Thursday...
Hey, those gaiters don't get enough exercise either and are fat little buggers! When you haven't ridden in a while they leave ya walking like a cowboy when you get off of 'em. Plus, I spend all week slouching here in my office chair in a semi-reclining position so I'm not used to sitting up that straight for that length of time and my back gets to cramping up sometimes right between the shoulder blades. Office jobs are a killer!
He’s good in the kimberwicke. I thought I’d ride in that for awhile. I still like the hackamore for sloppin’ around, and so they can eat when we take breaks at grassy places, but I thought we could use some culture and collection for a change. :~)
I feel it in my knees usually... We were a little groany when we got off at the end.
We’re going to try to get in the habit of going a lot more often again, but it’ll be a little bit hard to do... with his folks coming next month, and the preparations for that :~)
I know whatcha mean about hardly ever walking to see something. There's this huge beech tree out in the Forest that's supposed to be the largest one of it's kind in the state, and it's not too far off of one of the horse trails we ride all the time, but I've never seen it because we'd have to tie the horses somewhere and hike a pretty good piece down into a cove to see it. I was always afraid to leave the horses alone for that long for fear that they'd either a.) get loose and leave my butt out there to walk home, or b.) somebody would mess with them or hurt them while we were gone. We could ride down there, but you're not supposed to and will get fined if they catch you, and it's a fairly popular hiking destination so your chances of being seen would be fairly high, at least on a weekend. Also I think the trail is kinda steep and rocky so you'd have to be really careful. Lots of people use that horse tail to hike in to see the tree, but it's too dang far from the trailhead for me. It's 4 or 5 miles, so it's not like I couldn't do it, I just don't want to. Is that pitiful or what?!
I used to have trouble with eye drops and ointments. It may not be best as for as infection control but beats poking a antzy horse so I have washed my hands and dropped big drops on my finger and touched my wet finger to the lower lid . It works for me.
I’m sorry to hear that:’(
Heh, company coming is the only time my house gets cleaned. And it’s usually a monumental task when it finally happens.
Too bad someone had to snatch your supplies.
That’s the way I’ve had the best luck too... it’s such a goopy ointment. It’s not like a liquid even, it’s thick.
I’m so sorry.
Posted a few pictures in the hobbit hole.
Wow, it doesn’t seem like that long to me. I barely knew ye then. I’ll have to go back and look at the pictures. Thanks for the link.
Really? Time has flown. It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. Congratulations.
It’s been a good three years :~)
Some of it seems a long time ago... We didn’t have Cyn then, lots was different, some new friends have come and others have gone, but some of it seems like yesterday :~)
Yeah, I saw pictures of Ruthy back then. Do you ever hear from her, or is that just a dog that’s best to let lay?
That’s good. I’ve been married almost 37 years. Most of it has been good, and most of the bad times have been over stupid stuff. Just have to make peace before the sun goes down:’)
We haven’t heard anything... And we haven’t tried...
It’s sad that had to happen... my maid of honor too...
It usually is stupid stuff in hindsight.
Ecurbh and I still never fight. We grumble and get grouchy once in awhile, but we get along pretty well together.
Hey listen,
I have a 12 oclock appointment with an administrator, to present my program. I’m not comfortable with marketing and socializing over lunch. I would appreciate you believers saying a prayer for me.
