She is very kind - one of the niceest people I know, and she will love Pekoe.

Oh yes I am sooooo ready to ride again!!!! I will be up late morning to see how many yayas he has to get rid of before I ride, and to ride in arena for a bit - then maybe we can go out. say 1300? I saw him on Tuesday - it damn near killed me to get up there - he was looking fat and spunky. I sent Denise an e-mail about Sunnyvale

:-) Still horking. but better!

Very tired, and coughing up a lung, but improving. I will likely be off work for another 2 - 3 days. And yes Spud will be a looney - but I will let him loose in arena for a long run before i attempt anything on him. going to see my own physician tommorrow to see about extending and weaning the steroids off slowly. I rode him on Wednesday and he was a very very good boy then. Have a good day. it sounds like they all have the wind up!

Went to hospital last night because I couldn't breathe - on steroids now, and Tamiflu because I am high risk. Had chest x ray and it was OK. Now just have to ride it out.. Have a bottle of rum to help me sleep at night - Captain Morgan's Special Spiced rum - Say hello to Spud for me and Denise and Lad and Pekoe , and Donna and whoever else is there, 2 or 4 legs. Have a good ride!

Am sick. Temp 38.5. horrible cough. have been getting worse all week. waiting for md office to call me, or i may have to go to clinic

sounds good

Just Denise and I went out - it was lovely. I saw Lesley riding Pekoe on Monday night - what a lovely lovely horse . Sunday is supposed to be beautiful!!!!

Sounds good. See you then

Hi Chris: Did not get much sleep last night so I think I will stay home today. Also see that the proofs have started to come in for the paper. Should work on them also. Cheers! Gail.

OK Gail - I will be there and pray for no rain, but I will be inside or out. Ging to make soup now, and maybe go for a haircut

Hi Chris: I now was able to book a hair cut for 10 tomorrow so that does the morning. I think I should say that I will try and be there for 2 but if I don't make it, just means that I got jammed up with other things. Will try though. Likely an inside day. Gail.

I am available anytime Gail - so you choose. my only errand is for Port Perry Feeds and that can be done anytime. It's a FREE day for me.

Hey Gail - I don't know if you are available I am off on Thursday and planning to be at the barn during the day sometime for some fun.Let me know if you have time or are interested.

Yes I put Baker sheet on last night it's getti ng a little smal for him! I think this thing with the stifle and hip will clear up pretty quickly, I just have to keep him moving. Lord knows I have enough work to do with him so will work on the ground, and at a walk in the saddle. I am still very pleased with his progress (and mine). Lesley is amazing. Spud is listening.
Jo was taking pictures of Mia last night as Lesle rode her - she is a very pretty little horse. I know Jo is very distressed at selling her, but it reallyis for the best. I hope she sells quickly for Jo's sake. She is one of the sweetest human beings I have ever met. Have a good ride today.

Hi Gail - no haven't been out yet - Spud has sore hip and stifle on right-he probably slipped and exacerbated his already tender hip. I'm riding but walk, trot to the left only, no lateral work, Had good lesson tonight walk little trot lots of softening down. Lesley will use the lumen on him next week, and in meantime I will try a little more intense Therapeutic Touch

hi gail. just go to http://www.barnmice.com/group/horsegirltvfanclub :)

Hi Chris: I emailed Denise with an idea this morning. You know that Lesley is working on getting the horses into groups of 2 or 3 for the winter so they can all be moved closer to the barn. Easier to manage for the winter etc. You mentioned that Pekoe did not really like Whisky and I agree. Pekoe might make a good addition to your group with Lad and Spud. Pekoe is mellow now and has also been out with Lad in the past. I think it would work but you and Denise have to be on side. Let me know what you think. They got along well yesterday and I think Lesley would be ok with it. Think I will stay home today. Cheers! Gail.

And thanks for today = it was fun.
