Hiya Darlin',
Was sleeping pretty good until Lola got restless and I had to let her out at 1:30 in the morning, then it was on again, off again until my alarm went off before 6:00. Got her and the horses fed, than drove over to Jo's, where we left to first to go McDonald's for breakfast, then off to the farm where her new horse was waiting, a ten year old OTTB name Go Danica, that they'd been breeding for the last five years, but that Jo thinks will make a great endurance horse. She's a pretty dark bay, hopefully she'll work out. We had a little trouble getting her in the trailer (it looks really claustrophobic for a big horse, so I'm not surprised), but we finally managed it. She had trouble coming out as well, not used to going around corners at down a ramp at the same time. Once she was in the pasture, though, she settled right down, no drama, not even the usual excitement of being in a new place. Jo walked her around a bit, showed her where everything was, then left her to get used to it. Once that was done, I headed into town, stopping at Walmart to pick up a few things, including an apple pie for tomorrow, the liquor store, then at EV Hay to pick up some hay. I finally got a call from the trailer place with an estimate for the two new axles, so they've been ordered, anywhere from two and a half to five weeks before delivery, which is why I stocked up on hay. Got back to camp, put everything away, then debated whether I wanted to take a ride today, and ended up falling asleep in my chair again! Obviously, I'm still not fully recovered from all my recent activity, the exhaustion is too deep. Anyway, after napping on and off for a couple of hours, I finally fed the horses and settled down for the evening. Hoping tonight I'll get back on track with my sleeping schedule, after getting up before dawn this morning! I'm also having a double shot of Sleepytime tea, which I hope will help. Heading to bed shortly, I'm determined to ride tomorrow! Good night, baby! Love you!
