Reprieve


Some horse still has his butt camped out in the spot that I was supposed to be in at the rehab facility so my trip is temporarily postponed. I am pretty happy about this actually, I hate being away from home and my Shandi Doll. The DOR has mixed feelings about this, but is happy to have me around everyday. The new plan is for me to be going up in a couple more weeks. More time for me to eat grass and teach Shandi what to do while I am not here. The DOR also says it is time for me to rebuild my backing skills so I won't have a hard time getting out of the trailer.
Oh yah, more lazy pasture party time for this spotted boy.
Enjoy your day and don't forget to hug you DOR!

Less word Wednesday


Rumor has it I have to take a bath before I go to rehab. No stinky horses allowed. Alrighty then, I am hunting for a skunk then I won't have to go :)
Enjoy your day and don't forget to hug your DOR!

What I hope for


What do I want at the end of my rehab? I am hoping that the DOR and I will be able to be riding once more. We both miss getting to ride in the arena, at clinics, and heading down the trails. Wish me luck.
Enjoy your day and don't forget to hug your DOR!

Packed


The DOR spent part of yesterday afternoon putting together my supplies for my stay at the rehab facility. She made all of my treat tubs with my supplements up and put them in plastic containers. She wants to make sure I am given just the right things.
She has a light blanket for me to take, just in case the weather in Ellensburg gets weird. I hear they had a blizzard last week, maybe I need my winter blanket? She showed me a blanket that looks strangely like a blue tarp...I let her know that better hadn't be the one she plans on sending-if she does I am not coming home! She assures me that Freedom said I can use his tan one, alrighty then. She is trying to decide if I should take my favorite tub to eat treats out of...I am not picky I will eat treats out of any tub they come in. She wonders if se should send my favorite brush, my chew toy, lavender oil so it will smell like she is around, and if I need my special Boogie halter. I keep telling her I will be fine as long as she comes and visits. I have tried to convince her that I need to take my Shandi Doll or I will be...I mean she will be lonely. I guess Shandi can't come and that is not what I wanted to hear. We have only been apart once and that was when I first got hurt and I had a hard time resting without her. I guess we are like a married couple, I hate being without her.
The DOR assures me the time will fly and I will get more attention than I know what to do with. I just hope she doesn't make me carry all of my stuff myself because I would look pretty silly going down the road to Ellensburg all stacked up with my necessities.
Enjoy your day and don't forget to hug your DOR!

Quote for the week

It was a flabberbooster
~Mushboy

Mushboy made up the word flabberbooster. He uses it to describe things that are at an extreme somehow.

Flabberbooster seems to be a fitting description of the kind of wind that we have had this week. Flabberbooster would have been a good description of when I dismounted the DOR a couple of years ago. Flabberbooster could also be a good additive to a saying like "I hope your week is flabberboostering happy"

How could you use the word flabberbooster?

Enjoy your week and don't forget to hug your DOR!
