She's got a job at a health food store. It's a nice place. The lady that owns it ONLY hires military spouses/family members, so it's a good thing.
She's taking classes online with Univ of MD, only has 2 that she is signed up for at the moment, but has to wait until next semester because the lady at the college here forgot to send in the paperwork. UGH!

I think I am in withdrawal!!!!! I need some mare stare to perk me up!!!

You could come over and set up a chair by my pastures... I'd appreciate it so I could go to Easter dinner. :wink:

Can you send the jet for me? I'll be there as soon as I can! Tell Rosie to save ALL her kisses for me! :) :)

Tink's Mom

Karla, I would love it!!! You got any ideas what I can do with the houseful of people that are going to want Easter Dinner here???

Guess I am just a little bummed out today. No help from any family, just the come over and sit down to eat kind. 12 or more coming over this afternoon(always a couple that don't let you know they are coming!) Mom would help if she could, but she is still in terrible pain from the broken tailbone.
Thanks for listening, I think I feel better. Hope the mares wait till after the dishes are done!!!

You can do what we did! We went out for brunch! lol
Filled our bellies, then came home and napped!

Just checked udders and under tails for the third time today (it's only 9:30 AM!) and Chloe looks just too puckery/loose back there for me to leave.. so it's going to be a quiet Easter Sunday for me. It's windy and cold--20-25 mph and 35*--so I'll want to get them in stalls later anyway. I really wanted to see Rachel--her dad is picking her up and her brother is taking her home--but she'll be home mid May for a few days before she heads to Alaska... sigh.... guess I'll get some quilting done.


Just read your note, Tink's Mom. I would love some company today! Just fix the food--set the table and let them all fend for themselves. Then come here. :wink: I feel badly about not contributing to dinner at the in-laws, but my m-i-l loves this stuff and doesn't want anything... she knows I'm on mare stare now anyway.... I'll have to have them over later to make up for it. I always help a ton with clean up when I'm there...

Aww....I'm sorry you can't spend part of the day with everyone, but I'm sure they all understand the needs of the horses. Have a quiet day finishing some sewing and checking the girls. Maybe you'll have an Easter foal? Wouldn't that be nice? :)
And, maybe you'll get some leftovers brought home too! :)

Chloe is a holiday foaler--#1 Blessing was a Mother's Day #2 Claire was one hour before my b-day... #3?? -She can't wait until my b-day this time, so Easter is her only option. :wink:

Ok, will keep my fingers crossed that she foals today for you. :)
