A Stable Personality: Life with horses

The story of a girl who bought the farm, the horses and a backhoe.

Hold Please

by Billie on May 21st, 2008

Ramses, my Great Dane is extremely flatulent tonight. I may need to rethink putting his dog bed in my bedroom. A gas mask would be helpful.

I am suffering from insomnia yet again. It seems to come and go, tonight it arrived in full force. Usually sleep meditation works for me, but that has not been the case of late. My chiropractor encouraged me to take a magnesium supplement late in the evening, which helped for a while too. Since I refuse to resort to pills here I am, at 3:00 am, blogging of all things.

Today was a pretty decent day, all told. I completed the construction of a new paddock for Duncan and Lerus and moved them into it. (They stayed in which is a bonus). I played with the dogs and explored the woods at the back of our property. Rode 3 horses and then spent some quality time with my old Thoroughbred, Mr. Forbes. Took a few pictures. Picked asparagus. Put a coat of varnish on the bathroom vanity.

Talked to my equine chiropractor for a good bit. She is coming to do adjustments on three horses this Sunday. One of my favorite clients called to schedule lessons and gear up for the show season. Another client called to invite me to a horsey ladies day at her farm at the end of the month (the wine flows quite freely on these days and we have a great time). The Lad phoned and we had a good chat.

The existential crisis is on hold for now.
