You Call This a Vacation?
— Beverly Sills (1929-) American Opera Singer
Nothing will sustain you more potently than the power to recognize in your humdrum routine, as perhaps it may be thought, the true poetry of life. — Sir William Osler (1849-1919) Canadian Physician Well here is my poetry for today. I caught the sun burning through the thick clouds this morning. The farrier came to…
That’s my brother, William Makozak, M-a-k-o-z-a-k. He played Captain Bird on the last two episodes of “Lost”. I found this photo online when I did a search on his name. I know I should have mentioned this before the episodes were on, but ya know, it’s been all about me lately. Plus I didn’t know…
Oh my Lord. I can barely see the computer screen I’m so tired! I found hay but then I was worried about depending on 100 bales of hay from someone I’ve never bought from before. So I worked at home this morning for awhile, then drove out to look at the hay. The guy was…
Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else. –Will Rogers My fence passed inspection today – Yeh! While working on switching out a rotting deck railing and missing flashing between my deck and house, my contractor discovered that the deck was not properly attached to the house — like no rim…
Guess what it’s been doing all week? That’s right, it’s been raining. And the horses have been hiding out. And there has been much wiping of Java paws. The clouds have been pretty interesting. But nothing, not rain, nor sleet, nor snow, stops Java from playing with her branches. But today we are looking at…
I’m appearing on Vision and Verb today so please stop on by. p.s. I spoke with the Luke’s vet yesterday and described how Luke was doing. I was a bit concerned that his breathing might not have been normal at the end of our ride on Sunday, but I wasn’t sure because I didn’t pay…

Your sister and brother in law are great and I’m sure you enjoyed their help and company. You have a beautiful barn! So nice that they could be there to help you in so many ways.
Thanks for all your sweet comments. When are you coming over for dinner?
Bring Java.
So glad that your sis and b-i-l came to visit. Seems to have helped you enormously.
As for the barn door being left open etc – I’m a bit confused. Who made the mess? The horses? Raccoons? Java?
I take care of my friend’s horses sometimes, and she’s always emphasizing closing doors so the horses don’t get into things – so I’m betting on the horses.
Me too…who made the mess? I didn’t know horses were sneaky mess makers.
What a great sister and brother-in-law…and really cute folks too!
Lori – As soon as I can find a horse sitter, Java and I will be there.
KB and Lynn – The back barn door opens up to the paddock so yes, it was the horses that came in and tore things apart. I couldn’t believe they emptied the trash, which had no food in it, when they had free rein of the hay. So yes, they do things sometimes just because they are curious.
wow you are blessed with such great family… you take ‘er ez
