This has been a busy month! Lots of stuff, good and not so. When a family works together, it can lead to some disagreements. We've had our share at different times. Oh well, we work through them and go on. Just makes life and work difficult for awhile.
Lost a cow this week, one of my maternity (dry) cows. She was just found dead in the morning. Apparently she ruptured a blood vessel and bled out internally. Very strange thing. Of course she had a heifer inside that we lost with her.
Getting to do some riding. Rode Betsy yesterday, she had lots of energy. Although she spent most of it trying to get back home! Sore seat bones today. Then today I went and rode Eagle with Danielle. I think he is going to come back to us. She bought a different horse and can only keep one where they are. We (Danielle and I) have to much time, energy and $$ invested in him to let him go as cheaply as the market dictates now. He was very good, but has alot of energy. We had some differences of opinion on who decided which way we would go. He finally conceded. A scary couple of seconds when my boot scraped the wall of the arena. He spooked, but really only jumped a step or two. Lots more muscle work making him work though, than just riding Betsy. Think I'll have sore thighs tomorrow!
Well, time to get to bed!
