Tootsie had her foal this afternoon. Everyone is happy and healthy. Momma is watch dog protective, my pyr guards the stall and doesn't let the other horses come near it. He protects all foals born here. It's his only redeeming quality. That's the last of our foals. No more. Someone said "till next year" my reply was nope. I want to go camping, go on vacations. No more animals. Still have some horses for sale. Gonna have to take a pause though because surgery is coming up. Two glorious weeks off work. Greatly needed.
So now comes naming the little one.

Welcome Little One

Pondering
I was sitting here this evening pondering things, mostly about the horses I have left and something someone said. Well when I sold my stallion someone said to someone else well good he'll finally be used for something. We'll here is my question. What the fuck is wrong with them just being pasture pets?? They are well cared for do wtf is the problem?
My horses are very spoiled.
Schedule
I truly love my job and being able to run my schedule for the most part. One od my clients moved today. I will miss her a lot but we will stay in touch online. I got to go tell her goodbye this morning because I finished up early with my clients. This mornings clients are being assigned to someone else per my request. I won't miss her she was just mean. I already have replacement clients that I'll just be getting started with when I go into the hospital for surgery.
The time off (2weeks) will be good though. Give me a chance to recharge. Maybe get the right side of my face to act right. Not real sure what that's all about.
Miss Tootsie just refuses to give up that mini baby. Wish she'd have it. Can't wait to see it.

Loving Less
I have to admit I'm loving being down in numbers. It's nice. No more stallions, no more breeding, no more babies, just riding and enjoying the ones I'm keeping. I'm really enjoying having a mini around again. I can't wait to get the damn beef off to the butcher. One less mouth and lord I'm sick of his nasty ass. But he'll taste good.
I've got a few more to sell. Time to do a little retiring. I'll never give up horses completely but it's time to sit back and relax. Trails, treats and grooming is about all we want to do.

Anytime Now
Well my mini can have that baby any time now. Good grief! . I love that little mare.
Rebel has hooked up with my big bay mare Willow. They are about the same size and since I sold Di I'm glad he found a replacement.
Layla and Lola are still Layla and Lola. I didn't change anything. Lola was very displeased with Wes this evening. She is normally super sweet but she wanted her bottle I guess. I found something they like besides their bottle....cheerios!! I hate that the girls were orphaned but I'm glad I have adopted them. It's funny how much they have added to our lives. I love them both.
Told my clients about surgery. At least 1 of them will not remember. Lol.
Bed time.

Surgery Scheduled
Surgery is scheduled for mid July. Should be in the hospital a day or 2. Will be off work for 2 weeks so I'll have to break it to my clients and prepare them for a sub just till I come back. We shall see how well that goes. Lol. With most it should be fine, I know one that will deny services if it's not me. I've told one already to be nice while I'm gone.
I have a sitter for the girls. They will spend a night or 2 with a friend. Thankful for friends. Surgery is 3 hours long. It's pretty extensive so those who wish me dead here is your chance. Lol. I hate having to stay in the hospital but hell it will be a mini vacation. Lol. I'll just miss my hubby, my bed, my dogs, my horses my pigmy goats and my 2 girls. At least I will get well.
Updates on babies
Ok so considering changing Laylas name. Just doesn't seem to fit. Lola doesn't really either but Wes named her and she is his.
Layla is very bonded to me. Considering Piper or something like that.
She is so dependent on me and oh Soooo sweet. I just adore these girls. I look so forward in spending the evening cuddling them. Wes usually has his. They use to go to work with me until they were just to rambunctious so now they stay home. I love having my own schedule where I can check on them if need be.
Still no mini foal but very very very close.
