[Overtaxed]

Got the crocus planted and bloodmeal sprinkled liberally around the crocus, pansies and daffodils. Already have a daffodil shoot above ground. Boy that bloodmeal stinks!

Cleaned out the planter boxes and brought some order to the garden hose. Miss Cat explored the neighbor's yard and set the neighbor's squirrels to chittering.

Breakthrough! She used the pet door to get back into the house! Guess you can teach an old cat new tricks!

I posted this over in the Saddle Club thread, but thought I should share it here too. :-D

It was gloomy with a steady drizzle when we left.

Thankfully, it lightened up and then stopped once we got the horses brushed and saddled. I really liked how the lady who runs the place insisted that all of the riders learn how to care for the horses. Rebecca used a curry comb for the first time. And so did I. *grin*

Today she rode a handsome pony named Rocky. She wasn't happy about being led rather than riding herself around, but this was her first "official" lesson, so all rules had to be followed.

They had a variety of horses there. The paint is Sassy, the palomino is Chey-Annie and the liver chestnut is Dancer. They have about 25 horses in all, but only a few were brought out today.

I really liked Trigger. I hope to get to ride him when my lessons begin.

This place was very pretty with lots of grass and well-kept stalls. The horses seemed happy too, despite the rain that reappeared, forcing us back inside.

I took the chicken coop picture for 2J. :-D

Fantastic! It's tuna tonight for Miss Cat!

Glad to hear about misskitty's break through. I guess all it took was a bit of time to get comfortable with it.

Sounds the gardening is coming along well; the planter boxes sound like they are shaping up nicely. hmmm. bonemeal.
