Thorough(bred)ly Thursday

LONG day.

It was frosty this morning and I was happy to serve up "warm" grain, courtesy of our hot water heater. If it doesn't make the horses feel better, well, it makes me feel better. I fed, cleaned a couple of stalls........jetted to get gas, check the mail box...........and get on the road to work.
I listen to Jimi Hendrix..........yes, I said Jimi Hendrix..........Purple Haze to be exact. I was a kid when Jimi died but his music still rocks.......umm.......well, most of it. ...some great guitar for sure.

I worked all day, then came back to the farm, threw hay.........put the fillies together (held my breath).. the fillies seemed to like each other....some squealing......a lot of running and sniffing.......then drove like a mad hatter to get Sully. He was eating when I got there, to the fancy Gig Harbor barn........and looked at me like huh????????? Leave? me? ...but he loaded right up, stood like a little man and off we went. I stuffed him in a paddock....he looked around, went down and rolled.........made faces at Beaver........then looked for food. I fed grain and a little more hay to everyone, then checked fencelines.. the fillies were eating nose to nose(thank you God)......tucked the chickens in.......and came home.

I have a busy day tomorrow, my day off from my regular job.......lots of errands, catch up on the paddocks.......run to see Winston......groceries......bank........phone calls........you name it. OH and my house needs to be cleaned........the house cleaner comes tomorrow to help me but windows need washing, baseboards need wiping down........more work on my flower gardens to get them going.

I am hopeful that everything will be in one piece in the morning.......no fences down......no horse injuries........keeping my fingers crossed.

Pony Up fortune for tomorrow:

Sometimes it is not what you know, but simply who you know...........you know?
