In keeping with my plan to get Flash and myself conditioned for endurance riding, I headed south along the canal across Indiantown Road, passing a couple of playful otters on the way, turned east into the Jupiter Farms neighborhood and followed the canal all the way to Jupiter Farms Road and beyond. I had hoped to find a back entrance to Riverbend Park, but unfortunately there isn't one, so we had to stay on the bike path all the way up to the west entrance to the trail, which is just south of Indiantown Road anyway. Then we took the perimeter trail inside Riverbend Park, enjoying may long cordos and canters the entire time. This horse just loves to move!! We went under the tunnel to join the OTL trail, then straight west on the Cypress Creek Trail and finally, home, a fabulous almost twenty mile ride. Love this horse! Grabbed a quick lunch, changed clothes, and off to dialysis with us! Love this life!

Wednesday, Jan 9, 2019 – Karl Heads Home, Dialysis Day
After a fabulous night sleep, got up in time to say good-bye to brother Karl, thanking him profusely for helping me knock so many chores off my list, inviting him to come up to Tennessee to help me clear out the house in April, which he seemed glad to do. Managed to get to my Euchre game at the senior center in Stuart, but had to leave early to drop Hubby off at dialysis. Ran errands before heading home for a short, quiet evening.

Another long overdue repair made today, Karl found a small leak in the water line to the icemaker and was able to make a quick repair on it. I was afraid it was going to be a major job, but it turned out to be very minor, thank goodness. So many things getting checked off my repairs list!
Thurday, Jan. 3, 2019 – Great News! Regular Client Wants Three Workshops This Year!
After a year of being entirely focused on Hubby’s health, I was delighted to get a communication from one of our regular clients that they want us not once, not twice, but THREE times this year! Yay! Just what I needed to buck up my bank account, and to keep us busy and focused this year. So glad to hear from them! In addition, we got another big job getting my washer pump replaced, and took Karl out to dinner in the evening as a thank you. Everything is looking up!
