  1. Flashy. Glad you're slowly improving. Whew. Oh dear Zeke. No real answers yet ... and now you're on lock-up My goodness Piggy! You sure do get your ownself around don't you? Traveling in a Caravan and now staying with the gal pal p.s. Ducky... Go take your meds !
  2. Also checking in for an update on Flashy before I head out to the Chiro…. Hmmmm Nancy. I bet that lady was being polite, asking if you could still dog-sit but in her mind she already knew you’d say ‘no’ and just didn’t want to hurt your feelings by just hiring someone else before giving you the option. So it’s a Win-Win for all. Mmmmm… Jupe got a PB jar Zeke Patty was perfect about having her saddle put on and did not put up a fuss for mounting. My back/legs were knot doing well so we mostly walked. Did a little shoulder-in and then I mounted and dismounted 10 times just so she knew it didn’t hurt anymore. I doubt race horses ever need their tack adjusted. Those saddles are sooooo tiny and the horses are sooooo young and their backs are very undeveloped. PlusAlso nobody ever really SITS down on them. They would need a few changes once they retire and start to do a different kind of work and their backs come up. There’s a 6 yr old OTTB at Pattys barn and he’s had 2 saddle adjustments since he came off the track 18 months ago. I’ll be back later to see how Flashy - and Ducky - are doing.
  3. Oh My…poor Flashy Sure hope she’s better this morning. I’ll be off to AquaFit but will continue the Back’n’Forth in the pool/
  4. Just checking in for a Flashy update before I hit the bath’n’bed no news is good news
  5. Checking in for Flashy noos and I see there is a glimmer of good news. Whew. I will keep up the Back’n’Forthing. OhCharlie! That looks like a calm a fairly civilized Paddy’s Day Parade. Those horses are beeg! Cynthia! You didn’t even go over and find who that hound is and where he came from Kingston is a beeg University City and the stoodents have been out of control for 3 days. Many streets have had to be closed and the drunken stoodents take up unnecessary space in our ER. This happens at Frosh Week & Homecoming Weekend too. Glad Kathy & Jim are home safe & sound. PattyKake got poked and prodded and it was determined that her saddle could be adjusted. The fitter was really please at how nicely her topline has come up. Whew. The tree stayed the same but there was lots of wool being shoved in and moved around. I’ll ride her tomorrow. I’m sick of looking at paint. I have narrowed it down and went back to the store and got those little chip samples to study here in the light of the room. It looks out both west - 2 windows - and south - 1 window. Yellow is still on the list as is a green.
  6. Back’n’Forth long gone Too much time spent on that darn paint site….. Back’n’Forth
  7. Oh My...bizzy day in the club Poor, poor Tiller. But I'm glad you've made up with your Ma! Sigh. Flashy. Just sigh. Our Ruby degloved one of her ears. Boy Howdy...lots of bluds and the Vet could knot stitch it. I used a super-sized human elastoplast bandage to kind of wrap around the ear flap. It stuck pretty well. Can't remember if she wore a snood. Continued good thoughts going out to litle Rita. And Ducky. Hang in there. Oh Cynthia. Somehow I was swooning over Charlies photo and missed your sad bit of news And of course we're all here with you. Oh.My.Goodness. That guard dog trainer video was awesome. How's little Zavvie doing?!? Glad Nancy is feeling better. Sorry the dinner plans were thwarted by Doug. Phooey Nope. Pap spends very little time in the kitchen. He practically lives in that dam reclining chair. One day the remote is going to disappear... I've narrowed the paint choices down to a couple. Maybe. There's a fascinating thing on Sherwin-Williams site that allows you to take a photo of your wall and then it downloads the colour And then they tell you what accent colours work best. So I have spent too many hours trying out test colour photos of my wall. I was liking 'Acacia Haze' with a yellow yesterday. Today I am leaning towards one called 'Deer Valley' or 'Tamarind'. They both go with a 'Blustery Blue'. I may go crazy. Widget was once again a very good boy for me. Shoulder In ..on the quarter lines. Hard! And more counter canter, only this time, asking for it 'on purpose' instead of just changing direction on a diagonal and not changing leads. He tries very hard. You'll all have to google 'shoulder in' and 'counter canter'
  8. Icy But going to warm up nicely Safe travels today, Kathy. Nancy & Doug Glad you’re starting to feel better. Nothing is built for regular sized people, you, me, Sherrie... And I have the exact opposite problem! Yes, I can lay almost flat out in the bathtub, but I spend my life climbing up shelves in the grocery store I’m going to have a little ride on TheWidge in this mornings lesson. Won’t kill him to get ridden again this afternoon by the 60# kidlet. Pattys fitter is coming tomorrow. Pap seems to like ‘Optimistic yellow’ and ‘Universal Khaki’. I prefer the ‘iced lemonade’. It’s a bit brighter. We’ll see….
  9. Awwww..... poor Mister Patsy. Hope he heals up riteaway kwik. Oh...poor Charlie Hope Kathy's face does knot make any of her long lost relatives ask if she's "OK at home". Patty was a good girl for longing today and my legs felt pretty solid. Weird how one day I can hardly walk and the next I feel knot too bad I spent much too long in the paint store. Sigh. With no decision made. I think I'll go with a sunny yellow 'iced lemonade' and a taupey beige. Maybe. There is a nice bluish green called 'waterfall'.
  10. Mild 10C Ouch Kathy. Safe travels. Ducky. Hopefully you can get the remaining doses into Rita and she’ll start eating. Poor wee girlie…. Hope Nancy had a good night … The Painter dude was super nice. He belongs to my Seniors Centre. Now we I have to go to his preferred paint store and decide on a colour. It’s been a couple of different greens and the current paint is sunshine yellow and orange. Pap has never really liked it but I found it quite bright and cheery. He would just paint everything boring beige. If he does a good job then we’ll likely get him back to do all the bedrooms. Coach Kates daughter Lexi - she’s 5 - got the tarp out for Patty to walk over and somehow the cones ended up out there too. But when Patty started picking them up and then actually started biting them we decided it was time to pick them up.
  11. Wiki Kerry... we likely would have sent out a search party if you didn't show up soon! Nancy is feeling a wee bit better... Whew. The cortisone may take a day to work. Unless you were prescribed a 'muscle relaxer' by the docs who treated you last night, please don't take one! It is never a good idea to mix OTC meds with prescribed ones. Here's Patty living her best Mayhem life....
  12. Rita Ducky There’s cute little Zavvi How’re things going with him? Cindy Guess David will have to go back to work Oh Halise….Free meds! Guess it’ll take a few days for your blood sugar to go down to normal. Hope Nancy checks in…. My legs were so numb & tingly that I couldn’t longe Patty. I just let her loose and she tore around the indoor, being very silly. I’ll share a photo when I get on my desktopper later
