Ode to Joy

Joy, If I get you a plane ticket back here for 3x a week will you come ride Scout for me? I thought I'd ask. 3 kittens still available....possibly 2. Katie and Justin took Bear home last night. I cried. But now I'm fine (sniff). It's very hard to give away something you spend so much time trying to keep alive by waking up 48 times a night and feeding with a bottle. I'm going to miss all of them. Which reminds me, I have to run home and feed the babies now.

Horse update: Lilly is doing great. Just to make Martha mad...a little horse show talk. "She can really knock it down in the field." Cole is still pretty much himself. Scout is tearing my stall down. Joy, 1 last thing, I applied for racking papers for both Cole and Lilly. They should be here soon. Thought you should know.

Famous Last Words: "I know it's 30,000 volts, but I'm wearing rubber soles."

I don't get any of it. It's just a bunch of horses running around in a circle. Now if we could teach some of them to play defense and tackle...

Aww Rach! Yes, I'm sure I could find someone to take care of Scout so you can come visit :-) And about the Racking papers, I'm so excited, I can't wait to see them go in Dec.!

I once heard a horse show described as the "Seventh Ring of Hell." Just some food for thought...

Wandering Family Said:

Horse show talk I've heard

Me: "Which class is this?"
Miss Jenny: "This is class 38."
Me: "Oh. Which class is Rachael again?"
MJ: "Class 117."
Me: "Oh. Hmmm, at 10 minutes a class, that's ... I better not even think about it. Boy, this sure is fun."
MJ: "You're not fooling anyone."

"It's very hard to give away something you spend so much time trying to keep alive by waking up 48 times a night and feeding with a bottle."

I've helped do that four times over and I'll gladly give you any combo of the four you want. I'll even take an even swap of kittens for kids!
