Second night in St. Charles

Almost went home yesterday, but my blood pressure got way too high.
Now that I have the water pill under control, it's harder to get out of the bed from not moving as much.

Keep moving

Keep moving forward

Sunny day

I realized that Lacy wasn't in the house. So I found her outside with Syenna 😁☀️

Lacy

Lacy is really coming along 😁👍 Sits at the door, sits before I throw her sock and is getting very good at using the doggie door!! It's been 2 weeks and I love the improvements she's making 💜💜🐕

Raven

September 22nd through October 22nd – The Raven

The Raven
● Colors – Blue and brown
● Personality traits – Charming and friendly
● Compatible with – Otter and deer
● Best day: Friday
● Best time of the day: between 3 and 5 pm

Highly enthusiastic and a natural entrepreneur, the Raven is quite the charmer.
As a Raven, you possess a type of easy energy that everyone relies on. As a Raven, you are quite the idealist but also calculating at the same time. Under positive circumstances, the Raven is very easy going, romantic, and almost invariably soft-spoken.
In relationships, the Raven is intuitive and patient!

Nap time

Barely 24 hrs and they are already sharing the chair 😁🐕👍

Roomba

Lacy and Syenna keeping an eye on the roomba. Lacy is on my lap, photo makes her look bigger than she is 😄 Her head can easily fit in Syenna's mouth!!
She might be 8 lbs

Lacy, New addition to the family

I've adopted a Lacy, a 1.5 year old Chihuahua. A lovely senior woman needed to find her a new home due to her health issues.
Lacy is adjusting well, Syenna is doing great and Orin is not amused.

Today was Lacy's first introduction to the Roomba 😄👍😵🐕

January 26, 2018

Putting good Rad together. I haven't worked on a bike in years! This is Red's replacement. I'm looking forward to spending loads of time with Syenna, heading down the road and trail. 

Winter is Coming :)

Looks like winter has finally arrived. Not bad since it's February 18th 👍😁🌨️

Stephanie has passed on.....

Joanne called after 10 last night. She had been trying to get a hold of Gary, but he wasn't answering the call because he didn't recognize the number. So after a second call from Joanne, I picked up. I knew right away what was going on. She informed me that Steph was dead. No word on cause, either overdose or suicide.
So I called Gary to let him know, he needed to get ahold of the coroner. So I relayed the numbers that Joanne had given me.
Not a job I wanted, but a job that needed doing.
I can't imagine the devastating feelings of loosing a child. Steph was in a bad place for a while, drinking and drugs had taken hold of her years ago.
Her boyfriend of 5 years had died last month in a motorcycle accident. She was not dealing with it well, she just kept doing drugs. She truly looked like a junkie. Her photos looked terrible. So sad......

Big Day

Valentines Day
Red has gone to his new home. It's been pretty stressful going through this.
First a buyer was all excited, then changed her mind. That was while Micheal was trying to sell him for me.
After 4 months, I finally brought him home. Then the couple that bought Blue got a hold of me , they really wanted Red, since Blue had gotten West Nile and had to be put down.
So my horse owning days are over :( Time to move on.
No more feedings, no more shoveling manure. It's been a wonderful run. I've done so much, I've had so many wonderful adventures with my horses.
Now is a time for new adventures. Hopefully I'll be able to do a bit of camping, traveling.
My shoulder in much better, best it's been in 30 years! I bought a e bike, I'm looking forward to getting out with Syenna and getting fit again. It'll take time, but I'm gonna work at it. I don't have much energy, I'm hoping it'll improve. But I had no extra energy while owning a horse, I took great care of him, but that's all I could do.....
So a new day is here & I hope to use it wisely.
