Mani pedi...

Wednesday Grace had her second mani pedi day. Grace came gaiting in from her field, standing like a lady, hanging out after to eavesdrop a bit. Her event lines are growing out nicely, new one appearing as expected from her move/diet change coming here. Feet are very nice, I'd already planned to add river Rock around the barn (again) and on must travel over paths. Trimmer brought it up so when we hopefully hit the trails she'll already have been traveling over gravel. 
I do believe last weeks conversation with Grace regarding her wanting to stay worked.  I'd have to say "yes, indeed it did."  Of course it could be the ulcer treatment doing its job, perhaps she was in or coming in season when playing the keep a away game? Most likely the meds doing their job.  Haven't had opportunity to ride, this Granny Nanny with the boys takes so much time and sucks so much energy. No help to Grace on that. I do have energy to spend time, grooming, in hand work, and sometimes just chilling with her daily thankfully. 

Sunset after a day of rain yesterday. 

I do believe Hubs realizes that with the Donkies gone & new neighbors weighing options as to what their livestock options are thru winter, Grace requires a friend. On that note, I've been looking online for a large Mini or small Pony. One that's rideable to lead Lincoln about. We'll be going to a Horse & Pony auction at fairgrounds next weekend. Living quarters for the moment will basically be, the area within the barn used for run in. I'm contemplating asking Hubs to enclose a portion of the barn patio with opening into the barn. We'll see what he thinks and when he'll have time. I've been told Grace stall is large enough for a room mate, but I hesitate to do that.
Sounds like Ms. Grace as widened her window of opportunity 👌🏻

  1. Good to hear! I quite like her and think she can be a solid citizen. I would recommend a gelding - much less likely to be disagreements.

    1. Girls are totally fabulous. But, living with a boy who I can boss about sounds pretty good to me 😉
