Tuesdays Tidbits

Got off to an early start this morning. Funstuff, my Main Barn Gal was here at 6 a.m. to do chores and I was out there soaking Buddy's feet and giving meds. Tomorrow we go back to see Dr. Sherborne and see what he has to say. I am giving way to a bit of anxiety about this but I guess that is normal when you are concerned about someone or something that you care about.

I took T to her riding lesson at 9 and she did a great job and didn't fall on her head this time thankfully!!!! I could feel myself a bit tense watching her lesson even though I've seen kids fall off ponies a gazillion times, myself included, THIS WAS MY GRANDDAUGHTER and that makes it worse. Her instructor didn't sense any lack of courage so that was good. Kids are so resilient.

She worked a lot on balance so that she wouldn't be so apt to take another digger.

After a successful lesson she gets to lead Divit out and put her in her stall after a good pat on the neck and a few hand fulls of clover.

We had to go to the feed store for more vet wrap so T is always happy to see the resident mascot there a HUGE bunny named Stuart. He was being lazy today and didn't come out of his cage but she got to pat him and rub his ears.

Then it was off to Micky D's for some lunch. We were near Grampie's office so called him to join us out at the picnic table while we ate. Then we went for a little walk around the property. Well, some of us walked and some of us rode!

Did a few more errands after that and then headed for home. T and D both had dentist appointments at 2 pm and with Vacation Bible School tonight they probably needed a little rest. VBS is all this week and the children have a fantastic time with the skits, games, crafts, Bible stories and song time. Thursday night is Water Slide Night that the leaders construct out on the sloped lawn at the church and that is the hit of the week. I want to go to that and get some pictures and maybe even come down the slide myself!
