Hello lovely ladies!
I hope you all had a great weekend. Canada Day was on the 1st, so my hubby has the day off today for the stat. I only work Tues, Wed, Thurs right now, so I get 4 day weekends all the time. Must be nice, I know, I know!
Went for a 3+ hour trail ride yesterday with Midnight, my uncle and my cousin came with their horses too, and some friends of mine who ride came as well. It was only the 3rd time I have had him out on the trails, so he did really really well. We only had one tough spot. He had never crossed a bridge in his life, and ther were several on this trail (little wooden ones over creeks, and some deep ditches). Whe we hit the first one he balked pretty bad, reared, and then started backing as fast as he could. We were last in line, so there was no one behind us. My uncle came back to help, and I swear if he had taken a few more seconds, Midnight would have turned around and bolted back down the trail, all the way to the trailer!
It was pretty scary. But then my uncle came back to help, and we got Midnight across, calmly and safely. After that he didn't balk once at the bridges. He even started to trot over a few of them. I think he got to like the sound of his feet on the wood.
My foster kittens are doing well. I almost lost little Twylla; she got very sick and stopped eating and drinking. I was injecting her with subcutaneous fluids twice per day for about 5 days. We managed to find something she would eat - human baby food. Fed her that with a syringe for a few days. Now she is back on track, and racing around with Tempest like she was never sick. Both should be able to go for spay surgery next week. I'm kind of looking forward to it; my own cats have been pretty out of sorts.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY KEMPY AND ANGIE!!!!!!
Angie - Your birthday dinner sounded delicious!
And another 1.4 lbs!!! You are melting away! I noticed your avatar... you're gorgeous! Jay is a lucky man!
Claire - I'm sorry to hear about your depression, and that you are struggling.
My thoughts are with you. I hope you and Jim can work through what you need to. Remember that you chose this man, and the work on your relationship will be worth it! We are here for you!
Noelle - The boat looks like lots of fun! We were in Maui this spring, and the only thing we did not do that my hubby really wanted to was go deep sea fishing. I guess next time we'll have to come to Oahu instead!
I wish Rick could come and remodel our bathroom. Our buidling was built in the seventies, and each floor has a different colour bathroom fixtures. White (the lucky ones), pink, or "harvest gold" aka pukey greenish yellow. Guess which ones I have?! That's right "harvest gold" Lucky me!
Kempy - How did your birthday party go?
Dips - What's Shakin!?
And a quick hello to red, Julie, Maggzs and Cal (who is having the time of her life for sure!!!)
Have a great one girls! and Happy Fourth to all your Americans tomorrow!!!
