November

Wrangler as a new born. His mama was Sandy.

Bob and I and a friend on a trail ride probably 20 years ago.

Lane on Pepper, Lane is now 13.

Amelia

Wrangler last summer.

I did work with Sage today and she did mostly well. She is learning the things I have been trying to get her to do. Can't wait for Marilyn to come again. I didn't ride her, maybe I will be able to tomorrow.

Today I baked zucchini bread and brought groceries for this next Friday. So that was my day. Chrissy and Wendy came out this evening to visit and have Bob look at a ring they found in the dirt at a part. I think It is real but told them to take it to Zales and they will tell her. If it is, its about 2 carats with little diamonds on the side. It is beautiful, real or not.

Tomorrow I will make an applesauce cake and then clean the kitchen. At least that is my plan at this point.

Keep praying - blessings

Mistake

I think the bottom picture is Joel not Dustin. He is 25 I think.

Tyler on Rosie. He must have been about 12. I think he is 23 now. And very tall.

Mellow Gold aka Mel

Dustin on Sunny, me leading. I think he was 3 - he is now 28.

Nothing with horses today. Trying to clean house and bake pumpkin bread for Friday. Tomorrow I will make Zucchini bread and maybe get an applesauce cake baked. I need to get the eggs boiled for potato salad too. Also before I can do any of the baking I have to go to the grocery store. Am about out of sugar and am out of flour and a couple of spices. I doubled the pumpkin bread recipe and we have plenty to eat ourselves and plenty for Friday.

Friday is Wayman (our neighbor) memorial service and lunch after here. I have no idea how many to plan on. I will make it though.

We went to friend Mary's place this afternoon to get her smaller lighter horse trailer than ours is. Bob is leaving on Sunday to go to Burns to pick up the 6 month old filly she adopted. He will have a chance to visit with our friend Andi in Burns too. He will probably take her to breakfast on Monday. She lost her husband a little over a year ago. We went, not for the funeral but the next week or so to help her get organized to do things alone. We miss her and we miss her husband.

Tomorrow another photo challenge starts. I love them. They get me out to take pictures of things and think.

Blessings

Still old pictures but a good day

Didn't he have a cute face.
A few winters ago.

Tango

Yuma the day we brought him home from the adoption. He was so cute.

Winning

I will need someone to take pictures working Sage again. Today I did not ride but worked her into a sweat. She got things pretty good. Yesterday was not the best day but today she did excellent. The things we have been working on down pretty good. She is so smart.

Church was so good this morning. Pastor spoke about preparing ourselves and our world for the next generation. We are blessed with a very much multi generational church. Lots of young people and lots of older people and tons of kids. Enjoyed it and the fellowship we enjoy so much.

I took Sheya her gift and got my purse. Sheya loved her gift and had a nice chat with dil Christy. I still felt so silly.

Blessings this beautiful Sunday evening.

A good ride

I can't seem to get pictures to load this evening and they were not of today anyway. Does that make sense? Probably not.

Sometimes life comes up and kicks you in the teeth and takes away your mind. That has been me all week. I can't talk about it now but please pray for out family. So with my mind in that state we got ready to go to our granddaughter Sheya's birthday party. She will be 10 on Halloween. Also this week, we have one other granddaughter and 2 daughters in law birthdays. I got the gifts wrapped and put things in a couple of shopping bags and off we went. WELL, I forgot my camera AND Sheya's gift. Got every one elses. Then, I forgot my purse when we came home. Some kind of a ditz huh? So I will drive to church tomorrow with Bob's keys and no purse. Then after church I will take the Bug her gift and get my purse. All in one day. Mercy me.

I did work Sage and ride her for a while today after we got home. She was a bit of a brat when I went to catch her. No problem catching her but she would not lead out of the pasture. I stopped and worked her some but that just made her mad. She was quite good in the round pen when I worked her. I saddled her up and rode her for about half an hour. Not her best but at least we did some things. I must do it again tomorrow. She has been off three days and she did not want to come in.

So that is my saga for today. Am wondering why I have had no comments for quite a while. Is there a problem with my blog. I know my sister and daughter can not for some reason it won't let them comment. Is that the problem with everyone? Or am I boring (I am LOL) or is everyone busy like me.

Blessings.

Not a day with Sage - darn

Past pictures.

I have not had a time with Sage for 3 days now. I must work her at least tomorrow. I don't know if I will have time to ride or not.

Last evening was our Mustang Club Meeting. We had such a good time. It was good. It was out last meeting until January. Now we are planning a Christmas party at Marilyn and Dave's on the 10Th. of December. It is going to be a potluck. They have a lovely home and it will be fun.

Today I spent all afternoon in Couer d'Alene at a meeting. When I got home I started the apples and the pie filling that Nikki makes and it is soooo good. I will have to finish tomorrow though. It smells wonderful.

I finally have an appointment with a hand surgeon for November 15Th. so I can get my hand fixed. Hate it when I can barely hold a glass of water with that hand. Oh well, life goes on.

Blessings

More old pictures

No new pictures today. Sage got the day off from work. I just caught her and brought her in for her grain. She really does not need the grain but I want her to know that every time I catch her doesn't mean she is going to get a workout.

It was a beautiful day again today. Not warm but pretty. Like this time of the year when the sun shines. I was going to take a picture of the maple tree because it was so beautiful. I just put it off yesterday thinking I had today, well, the leaves are most all on the ground this morning. That will teach me to procrastinate. That is something I am really good at.

Blessings
