My new, yet old baby..Gran, I did something crazy today...I took back the mare I gave away last year. I hate mares, and well, I just could not help myself though cuz she looks just like my gelding that died a couple years ago. There is something about her that I fell in love with....she looks terrible in this pic cuz she had bite marks all over her, she is wormy as all get out judging from her gut and her hooves were HORRIBLE...all have thrush and my farrier was trimming one and it started gushing blood...poor baby...I feel so bad about giving her away now. I know the people did not mistreat her intentionally, they just kept getting horse after horse and now they have like 5 in one small area....not good....so anyways...here she is the apple of my eye...though I could use some suggestions for a name....I never did like the name baby for her...at least not a horse....she is far from being a baby....she has a cowkick too,,, that should be fun to break her of...yeah...guess I better get my boots and gloves out....she is ornery to boot so I have a job ahead of me...well it will help keep my mind off of other things I have to deal with....
