Nothing exciting happened this past week. Bobby's been working hard on keeping the yard looking nice. I've been without tunes in my truck for over a week now and listening to my own thoughts is about to drive me crazy ! :<) Ringer turned 3 months old this past weekend and got his first set of shots this morning....wish I could have stayed home for that, but had too much going on here at work. Mom's vision is improving since her cataract surgery - she's surprised at how much more color she sees now. That's it for now........

Great Weekend

We had a really nice weekend.....got to ride with our friends on Saturday morning then I worked with Stylin and Ringer later in the afternoon. Got Ringer over his fear of being bathed by using the suggestions of Jenny and also Mike W..... worked like a charm. Mom went to church and lunch with us Sunday, then we spent the rest of the day working in the yard. Bobby tried to seal the leaky tin roof over the horse stalls again, but it didn't work for the tiny pinholes. Back to the drawing board. While eating dinner Sunday evening - all the lights went out. It was the main breaker to the house - Jenny and Ben came over to check it out and got us back on again. Our friend Bobby G. said he would look at it today for us. Thank goodness for friends! Hope it won't cost too much to repair.

Monday morning - back to work
Had to get back to a better schedule this morning....the new school year started today so traffic will be horrible. That means feeding up in the dark again....and leaving the house on time... oh well.
We enjoyed a really nice weekend. Bobby and I met Charlotte for a ride at the Ravines early Saturday morning. The weather was nice and we really didn't have to contend with many bugs. We were out of the woods and heading home before it really started getting too hot. I'm still riding Maybe and looking forward to riding Stylin on the trails again.
I keep working with Ringer daily and he's coming along nicely. He's like a human boy though... if there is anything to get into or hurt himself on - he'll do it. I just got one boo-boo healed up and last night I saw a nice, clean 1-1/2 " slice on his leg. Back to doctoring. I'll just consider it more training for both of us. :<)

Weekly Boring Update

Time for another posting.... I've been told it can help with insomnia.
Jenny, Cathy and I were able to squeeze a ride in last Wednesday evening. We were sweating up a storm just getting the horses ready and thought we were in for an uncomfortable ride - but a breeze picked up and cooled things off a little. We rode in the forest for about 1-1/2 hours and got back to the trailers right at dark.
Ringer got his first bath this past weekend....well... a good hosing off anyway. He didn't like it much, but he'll learn to love it soon enough.
Got confirmation this week that Jenny and I are going to the 4-H Adult Horsemanship Camp this fall. I'm really looking forward to spending some time with my daughter and our horses. Maybe Ringer will be weaned by then and I can take Stylin...that's what I'm aiming for.
