Dr. Visit

I finally went to the dr about my legs being weak after getting spinal injections. Apparently if I work at it I can regain my strength.  I still have to be careful with my back. Not lift as much as I use to, blah blah blah. I can't get anymore shots for 6 months because you can only have so much a year put in your body. It's risky but the lack of excruciating pain is a blessing.

Losing Ability

Well it appears that I'm losing my ability to use my right leg. I've noticed my shaking I'd worse and even typing is hard. I can't lead off with my right leg going upstairs and going down it wants to collapse. If I go down on my knees I can't get up without using something to stand. I'm a little scared.

Winter

Well I guess winter finally arrived.  It was cold, dreary and windy today and more standing water and mud that's like soup. It's horrible. All the colts and younger ones need to stay under the shelter. 
Pretty sure Sadie has Lymphoma. I'm keeping her comfortable.  She is the walker coon hound that came with the house when we bout it 10 years ago and she was 2 or 3 years old then. She's living in the house now and staying warm, dry and on meds. Her color is pale. She isn't in pain though. She does sleep a lot.
Sleeping all day tomorrow sounds like a plan for me.

Rescues

I just discovered that the equine rescue I adopted one of my mares from is no longer in business, no longer exists! YAY!!! Apparently people became wise to their real deal like I did. I was threatened by that organization and had to hire an attorney.  After a year of fighting with them, they finally came to the realization that they had no case. They tried two different complaints and neither one held water. I still have my beautiful mare and now there is no way they could ever take her. 
They use to adopt out horses, then find a loophole and take them away from adopting family and then adopt them out again , over and over and over again.
Now they are DONE!!!! Hallelujah!! I just wonder how they went down. 🤔

Boys will be boys

Went out to feed this morning and one of the boys kicked me. One hoof to the gut and one to my face. Face is sore buti don't think you can tell I got kicked there. I thought I was leaning on Luke but now I wonder if it was Jinx. Hard to tell them apart these days.

Mavis

Introducing the beautiful Mavis. She is a little shit. She's 5 yrs old and acts like a 2 yr old. She needs to have her little butt kicked by a herd mate to make her realize she is not a badass. 
We will work on it together ❤️. 

Larry, Mo and Curly

Wes calls the boys Larry, Mo and Curly.  They are growing so fast. My little fat babies. Josie's passing made me love them more. Plan on playing with them tomorrow before work and before rain. I hope the rain goes around us so mud can dry up more.
