I’m not happy, I’m cheerful. There’s a difference. A happy woman has no cares at all. A cheerful woman has cares but has learned how to deal with them.— Beverly Sills (1929-) American Opera Singer Last Monday morning I was cleaning up manure and I must have gotten distracted, which happens quite often to me….
It was a mindblowingly hot weekend for early June in Minnesota. I don’t do well with heat and humidity – I get migraines — so if this weekend’s weather was any indication of how most of the summer is going to go, I’m in big trouble. But there was some relief. And no, I didn’t…
It was in the teens, sunny, and windless today. Woo! Hoo! I needed a lift-my-spirits, outdoor day so bad! The morning started with a bluish-tinged sunrise. That progressed to an orangish hue. I wanted to take a photo of the horses walking out of the barn, but the sight of Java standing on top of…
Since the house is on fire let us warm ourselves. ~Italian Proverb Aaaghhh! I have until the end of July to find boarding and a home! Aaaaghhhh! And pack! Aaaghhh! And figure out what I should keep and what should go, which is really tough when you don’t know where you are going to live…
It was a frosty fairy tale morning. So pretty. Good thing that something is pretty out there because my gas bill sure wasn’t. Doubled!!! I think I had a gas leak on the gas line going to the outdoor grill that probably took me awhile to detect and then another while to find the valve…

Only a slight chance, however. I wish the wet weather would spread itself out through the summer instead of starting out so…

At least she was good for 5 seconds! I can’t even get my dogs to sit and stay for half a second! Aussies!
Love the picture!
Is it a bad thing all around if she chases them?
Mary…you sure have a very beautiful set up! I hope you can find a way to keep all your animals.
Paint Girl – Java tries. She really needs a playmate more her size.
Ari – It’s tempting to let her play. My horses aren’t afraid of her and will only warn her if she starts to bug them. The problem comes if she’s ever around other horses. They might try to kick her and the horses’ owners might night be too thrilled either. Some people will shoot a dog that chases their animals.
Lori – I can keep the cat, dog, and one horse, but I can’t afford the board and care of two horses. I’ll keep both until the house sells anyway.
