It is Done!


I think yesterday was the longest day of my life, and it followed a really long week of 12 and 16 hr midnight shifts, a week of them.This time of the year is always loaded with mandatory OT in my deptartment, and next week will be the same, Mike and I will be working 12's over Christmas.
Besides the OT, I worked hard at the farm to get stuff ready to try toattemtp what I felt was pretty near impossible. But I was highly motivated with losing my rescue barn and a noreaster blowing in today. As soon as I got off work yesterday at 0700, I started moving horses. I didn't stop until 2100 last night, 36 hrs with no sleep. But I knew if I didn;t get thme here now, even though they are smooshed in, I'd never get my trailer back in and out with our long lane through the woods. I am happy, relieved, tired but happy to say, EVERYONE is moved.

I also want to thanks those that sent me prayers yesterday, I was so tired, had to do everything myself because everyone else was working. And I have to say it's why I have morgans and not some other breed. I moved 11 over yesterday, rescues included. None of them have had a blessed thing done with them all year except some grooming. Sassy has never been on a trailer in her life, yet she loaded like a champ, as did the rescue fillies. Everyone was so good, they walked off nicely (well, Glow had to be convinced it was ok to get off the trailer) and to their new pastures wiht no fuss and settled right in on the round bales. The last load was the rescue, Jack and Max, and that was in the dark. Max walked right on with only a regular lead, he is such a good boy, and Jack too. Over here at the farm, after I put Jack with his buddies (He loves Holly), I had to walk Max in the dark down the lane to the barn and go in that pretty but very little doorway into the barn to his new stall. My boy never hestitated, just ducked his head and marched on through to his new digs and settled right in. I am so proud of them all. Not one mishap or fusser out of 11 horses, never been hauled fillies and a stallion. God was really with me, and I thank Him. I have much to do yet, nothing was set up ideal, but it works and that is all that counts. Here are some pics this am, the snow has started, so glad I pushed!
The last pic is the straw shed, and the dark silloughette of the big Morgan rump is Baby Bea's (Beacon Illumination). I think this was good for her and me, we left the place where her dam, Grace (State Line Miz Snippet) died a year ago, and when I went to put her on the trailer, it was so strage. She looked at me, the trailer, looked back to where her mom had always stood, almost like saying good bye one more time. I looked too, I swear we say Grace stading there saying to get going. She looked back at me, and stepped up on. She, and I, never looked back.
Merry Christmas to ME!

Getting Ready

Well, if the weather holds, hopefully phase III of the horse move will be completed this weekend, Merry Christmas to me. All my horses will be at the farm, and if I can get the rescues all shipped out, then that's all there will be!

Last Night's Seasonal Activity


The snow started earlier than expected, about 10am. Heavy, big, fluffy, white cotton ball snowflakes. And it stuck. By the afternoon, everything looked like some had shaken powdered sugar over everything, including the trees and their trunks! I didn't get home from work and chores until 1730 (had been in at work since 0130) and Mike had been doing computers all day in the shop.
But last night, our little local country church, Bethel United Methodist, was hosting their 150th anniversary. No mean feat for a little country church to have survived all these years. They are in the little valley below us, with a cornfield and woods as their lawn. For the anniversary celebration, they hosted a live nativity, with animals and all, to be followed by Mike's cousin, who is a recorded country singer, doing Christmas hymns and songs afterwards with hot soups and baked goods to eat.


Anyhoo, it was still snowing pretty good and icy, but it was only 3 miles down the road, so we bundled up and went. They had a decent turnout for it being such icky weather last night, probably about 80 showed up from what i could count. They had the crèche set up against the cornfield and the animals next to them (a calf, 2 sheep, 2 goats and llama....not sure where the llama was in the original....) The burros couldn't make it with the bad weather. They then read the Christmas story and all the players entered on cue, with appropriate Christmas song verses sung by the crowd, accompanied by bleating sheep and the occasional snorting of the llama. The big snowflakes kept falling all around us in the dark except for the lights on the nativity story unfolding before us, and even though half of everyone was off key singing and the narrator didn't know the difference between "decree" and "degree" among others, it was the neatest service EVER! Afterwards, we ate and fellowshipped and listened to Mike's cousin sing, and it was just heavenly. Even though we were both dog tired, we had made the effort to go because even though tired, we get sick of missing all the neat stuff because we are always working. And this was really worth going to.
Just thought I'd share that....feels like Christmas now!

Happy Thanksgiving, All!

Giving Thanks




For the hay and the corn and the wheat that is reaped,

For the labor well done, and the barns that are heaped,

For the sun and the dew and the sweet honeycomb,

For the rose and the song and the harvest brought home --

Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!



For the trade and the skill and the wealth in our land,

For the cunning and strength of the workingman's hand,

For the good that our artists and poets have taught,

For the friendship that hope and affection have brought --

Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!



For the homes that with purest affection are blest,

For the season of plenty and well-deserved rest,

For our country extending from sea unto sea;

The land that is known as the "Land of the Free" --

Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!



~Author Unknown



Thanks also to our soldiers!

Homecoming-Phase II


Monday was a long day but frutiful. The NY contingent, Beamer, Beth, Dax, Katy and Comet made the move from NY to the farm. The rescue Sheridan also was delivered to his  new mom. The weather has been really warm and nice, which is a gift. This time last year saw bitter temps and they stayed that way most of the winter.  So we are 1/2 there, only 2 more phases to go!

Dax, the bay Arab on the right (Duke of Earle) some how knew when we pulled in he was going home. This horses has always had an unnatural ability to understand and perceive things, which is how he ended up here in the first place years ago. He called to me, I answered him and he ran to the gate and stayed there until I fethced him. I have been there other times with the trailer and he never did this, and it has been several months since I have seen them.  All loaded by a busy road without a hitch, and unloaded in a strange place in the dark. What good kids.
