Life . . . well its going, its been alright over the past few months, going on much as it has the past year. I have had almost a month off now from work and am going to start attacking things if I don't go back to work soon. I ended up not working for the trainer in this winter that I thought I would be because of a lack of horses. We had to put two beautiful two year olds down. That really eats me up inside. One had ring-bones disease, and couldn't walk so we thought that it was the kindest thing to do for him. The other had this virus that was going around, and we couldn't control his temperature, we were doing cold compressions on his entire body and giving him all sorts of vet prescribed temp. reducers but he wasn't able to fight, so we ended it for him.

". . . So I smile and try to mean it
to let myself let go . . ."

So we only have four horses at the farm, so I got hired by a different trainer, who I have to sign over to today at five. I'm excited to continue with my life but sad at the outcome of the other horses. The breeders of the racing quality thoroughbreds don't seem to take into consideration what their mass breeding production is doing to the quality of the horses in the long run.


Anywho . . .My little Whisper is doing great [link] <- cute picture of her playing in her paddock. Her vet bill came to a total of 3,100 and a little for bute and more antibiotics which did shit cause there was no infection as indicated by four joint and fluid cultures. But she is doing great now, I took her on a walk yesterday and she loved it. Other then that our barn building is doing great we are going to have all the roof on before thanksgiving and all the walls are almost up, but Whisper is already in a stall cause she has no winter coat. My pony Lightning got sick a little while ago but he is doing good now, just a bit of a cold.

Other then that I am doing great, having a good time. Lots of fun moments and few sad ones, but without the bad how could I have the great times.


Well, have it out people
