Why I Loved My Stable Job
“We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.” — Carlos Castaneda The weather we are having is so changeable – 90s last Friday and mid-70s today. Java and I went for a walk at the park last Saturday and it wasn’t as hot as Friday, but…

House or Home
Maery’s Morning I almost ended up with one less horse this morning. Something frightened Luke and Murphy when they were going out the back of the barn and they turned and ran back in. Luke went in his stall. Murphy went out the front door into the open yard. He crashed around hysterically in the…

Surfacing
I’m hoping that the pain and hurt is on a bell curve and I’m hitting the peak. If so, I will soon start my journey down the other side of the bell and this will all become a more manageable ache. ~ Mary Olson Java and I ran some errands this morning, which took longer…

And the List Goes On
I’m a big list maker, mainly because I have such a crummy memory and way too many things to remember. Some things on my lists are very small, like “wash sheets”. Other things are very large, like “write a book”, which I guess I should break down into more manageable bites. And some things have…

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.
