A City Girl's Life In The Country

The baby's getting bigger, Babe's losing weight and I'm outta bucks (The Dogtime check FINALLY got here!).

I HATE being caught in the middle of FIGHTS!  I'm caught in the middle of two of them and I hardly leave this house!  Grrrr  First of all, there's the fight between Kami and Kathy, Kathy's been given notice to move because of her continual drinking and when confronted about it, her LOUD arguing with Kami and Tom denying that's the reason she KEEPS screwing up.  Last week, she got her mare out of her stall and when she took her out of the arena, left the gate open and my two geldings, Buddy and Grey were in the arena.  Thank HEAVEN that they weren't in a mood to go "exploring".

Then there's Lisa and Howard...  Lisa, my horsekid who's now got her own business horsetrading and used to train at Howard and Mary's place, "The Rocking M Ranch", parted company on bad terms.  Anyway a couple of days ago, Howard called me and asked for Lisa's address (They live in the SAME town, she'd moved to her new home on 30 acres.) so I gave it to him.  Oops!

I called Lisa AFTERwards and now she's all worried WHY Howard wanted the phone number even after I told her that Howard wanted it for some guy in TX for his place in AZ where he wanted contacts for horse trading...  I'm confused.

Okay, I've vented and now on to the lighter side of horse owning...

Just 5 days short of a month old, you can see how BIG this little girl is getting!  Yesterday, she was using those LONG baby legs hauling buns around the arena when she misstepped with her back end and DOWN she went!  She layed there a while, thinkin' about how that happened then got back up, shook herself off and then took off again!  Of course I missed it with her tumble and my camera...

Isn't she growing up to be a real CUTIE PIE?  Now if her attitude was as pretty as she is!

And off she goes, AGAIN!!!!!!!!

It's the season for BABIES and Kami just got another baby goat (They are cute, but I just LOVE to say "Bar-Be-QUE!"...

Isn't he just too cute?

  The baby is totally adorable. I am on the next plane out to Ca so I can tuck her into my handbag.. I carry huge handbags:)
  
  Seriously what a sweetie pie. But she looks like she is a hellion.
  
  Hard to be in between people who are fighting. I hate it.
  
  Thanks for posting the photos. They are excellent.
