gottawonderToday I am grateful for:
Good sleep.
My Sweetie being in the house when I got up.
He worked on mowing the horse pasture later (we now have a large, rough cut mower for this. It's great because it also cuts the ever encroaching poplar and willow saplings).
That took him most of the afternoon.
We were going to work on the sheds, but there was too much wind. It still made mowing kind of yucky, because the dry grass blew on him the whole time.
I did normal chores and came in and washed some more of the lighter horse blankets. The liners mostly, which will fit in our machine.
Then I went to see River.
He did well, his energy seemed okay, as was his breathing.
I stayed to work with Maverick during the woman with health challenges' lesson. R's daughter L also worked with a horse, so it was fun having her there.
L is 18, and now works at home for her Mom.
We often talk about music preferences, which we did today, and we ended up talking about trashy celebrity news, like Taylor Swift's song "Wood" (ewww) and that Justin Trudeau seems to be dating Katy Perry (also cringe).
Fun to talk about pure fluff.
I stayed to spend time with the kittens. The woman with health challenges hadn't seen them yet, and was very excited to see them.
Again, it was very social to sit up there with R, the woman with health challenges, her adult sister who drove her to the lesson, and myself. Just adoring the little animals together, and petting the very jealous doggy.
Then I came home, my Sweetie made supper, and we re-watched "the Fall Guy", which is a pretty fantastic movie if you appreciate stunt work.
