Terri's wave reminds me of M&M's. That would be almost like chocolate~right? LOL Sending good thoughts for Gypsy. Hope to see a foal in the am. Take care Karla

I have some hot fudge to go with the ice cream! :)

barnbum

Hot fudge? Mmm--that would help to keep me up, eh? :wink:

Actually after the crackers--I had a swig of skim milk. I want to lose this 3-4 lbs that's crept on the past few weeks.... if I behave for a week--it'll be gone.

Gypsy is standing very still. She's pooping right in the middle of her stall because she hangs out in the very back... I always have urges to go out and clean it up!! But I'll resist.

I need to start chores at 5:30 to be ready to leave for school by 7:30. Dad is coming at 9:00 for the first visit...

barnbum

It's 1:30--I decided to check on my princess (and clean up that poop!) and her bag softened up some--so I'll head to the couch to sleep and peek at her--but no foal tonight.

No Foal Tonight...sounds like the making of a poem.

First thing that came to my mind was the song "No Sugar Tonight" I guess I am aging myself :lol: :roll: :lol:

I am sorry she is not cooperating tonight....hopefully she will get on the ball in the am and be all ready by the time you get home at lunchtime!!!!

LOL Amma.....I had the Greatest Hits from Guess Who on 8 track with that song on it. :) :) New Mother Nature/No Sugar Tonight.

amma

Oh Yes!!!!! Mine was on a LP :lol: :lol: :lol: Forgot all about the New Mother Nature....Now both songs are running through my mind.....just as I am getting ready for bed too :lol: :roll: :lol: :roll:

You started it!!! lol I just started singing it in my head. Now I'm gonna have it stuck all night!

I found the lyrics. We can sing it to Gypsy, maybe she'll foal for us!

Lonely feelin' deep inside
Find a corner where I can hide
Silent footsteps crowdin' me
Sudden darkness but I can see

No sugar tonight in my coffee
No sugar tonight in my tea
No sugar to stand beside me
No sugar to run with me
Da da da...

In the silence of her mind
Quiet movements where I can find
Grabbin' for me with her eyes
Now I'm fallin' from her skies

No sugar tonight...

NEW MOTHER NATURE:

Jocko says yes and I believe him when we talk about the things I say
She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
When they standin' in each other's way
You're driven back now to places you been to
You wonder what you're gonna find
You know you been wrong but it won't be long
Before you leave em all far behind

And it's the new Mother Nature takin' over
It's the new splendid lady come to call
It's the new Mother Nature takin' over
She's gettin' us all she's gettin' us all

Jocko said no when I came back last time
It's lookin like I lost a friend
No use callin' cause the sky is fallin'
And I'm gettin' pretty near the end
Smoke filled room in a corner basement
The situation must be right
A bag o' goodies and a bottle o' wine
We gonna get it on right tonight

Cause it's the new Mother Nature...

Darn it! I guess I will miss the baby coming as we are leaving this morning for a week vacation :( No laptop, so I can't follow the thread. Karla, I hope all goes well! You can bet the first thing I'm going to do when we get back is check for baby pictures!

barnbum

I called in for a half day--then watched her--she's standing in the corner not eating her hay--her bag is nice and full--and I just will cry if I have to leave her--so much can happen in the 6 hours before I'd be back, so I called in for a whole day... I think that's an issue the day after a week off--but my horses are my priority now...and the principals like me-- if she goes during the day--Kennedy will miss it.... but my dad will help.

I'll update later...
