Oh, what an appropriate pun!
MORE rain last night and more expected today. Seeing Horse's feet makes my stomach turn. The thrush is rampant and he still doesn't want to go in to his run, which is the only way access to his stall. I am thinking of buying some sand this weekend and filling his run myself. It is only $2.50 a bag or so. I can get 400lbs for $20.00.
And the punny (ah-ha!) part? I finally have someone interested in the half-lease, we set up an appointment for Sunday the other day, and since I have had several inquiries. I'm just trying to set appointments as I go, keep the people updated on hi availability. Who knows, maybe I'll wind up with two half-leases, and I'll wind up only riding once a week! I don't know if that is good or bad? On one hand, it will save me tons in gas money. My fitness might not keep up with him, but then again I am about to begin commuting by bicycle. It defeats the purpose of owning a horse, but I do not see this as a long term arrangement, just one to carry me through my impending financial transition.
Oh, I don't know!

Will it ever stop raining?
Do I live in Florida? I could have sworn this was Texas. As far as I can remember we usually live drought to drought. WHAT IS GOING ON???
This is causing some problems with Horse. He is EXTREMELY thrush prone, and all of the mud in his run is trashing his feet. He is also becoming a basket case with all of the time he is spending "up." The other day while I was lunging him he spend a spell bucking - which he NEVER does - and the other night when I went to put him back in his run he pulled away and took off the other direction bucking. After I got him into the run he tried to push his way back out, and I don't blame him! I want him turned out as much as he does!
Also, I may have a possible lessee. She called and e-mailed - super promising! I am going to try and call her in about half an hour. *fingers crossed*
