One needs to quarter apples for Pasture Poodles so they won't swallow them whole and choke. Good thing that they don't have to be cleaned further than that.
Growing up in the suburbs, I never owned a horse but I understand the bonds that can be formed between humans and horses. A friend of mine since elementary school got into FFA and horses became a central part of his life. He’s in his 60s now, is CEO of an ag logistics company, and he and his wife participate in rodeos and other equestrian events. Expensive hobby but they love it. My granddaughters have been taking riding lessons for about a year and I hope they stay with it.

Yes, it is an expensive undertaking. The landlady's horses are all rescues. This part of the world has a lot of horses which gets discarded for one reason or another. The red horse who I spoke with earlier today was a jumper and he got injured. His "owner" was a preppy girl who was upset when he got hurt and needed attention and rehabilitation, but not to fear, Daddy got her another horse/toy and this one became surplus. "Why do they eat so much? I had no idea that they lived this long." The usual. He was on his way to the knacker, but he didn't get there. Now, he's a pasture pet. One might could ride him, but since he's been hurt, why subject an old horse to that level of selfishness and inconsideration?


His name is Telly, but I call him Preppy sometimes to honor his origins. He doesn't care as long as I have apples or peppermints.

Sad the way cats, dogs, horses and other animals get discarded by people that have no sense of compassion or responsibility. It’s great that you’ve befriended Preppy. Some of the best friends I’ve ever had/have 4 legs and no pedigree or papers. Best women have 2 legs and 2 tits tho.
 
My wife is in her third battle (over the last 10 years) with renal cancer.

Her sister, mom, and dad all died of various forms of cancer, her sister was only 37.

At this point just about everyone is, or knows, someone dealing with it.
You are correct everyone has had or knows someone who has had cancer. Caregivers need to vent. Feel free to do so. I understand too well.

10 years ago we traveled to the NIH because her cancer is a rare form, and they had better equipment down there, as well as the best doctors in the world. They saved 80% of her kidney, but things took a bad turn, almost lost her and went through three weeks of hell. I was fine-mostly during it-but afterward it hit me and after a few months of not being able to shake it, I wrote a story about it for catharsis. It ended up winning a contest for that month.

Some of the best souls I have ever had the privilege of knowing were some fur-bearing four-legged "critter." I have continuously had somebody since 2003. The less memorable ones were good company and I begrudge them nothing. The very memorable ones were/are an improvement over most "humans" I know.

My best wishes to you-n-yours. Her.


I have another friend IRL whose wife has gone through the whole cancer thing recently. They are all still here, thankfully. It's serious but it's not the death sentence it used to be.
 
Yeah.... that whole side have been truck drivers.... my dad 8s the last one left
another problem they are creating in driving schools, is class one drivers whom are driving with automatic transmissions, and have never learned the art of upshifting or down shifting, and are relying purely on mechanical braking for slowing down, and they are carrying payload weights up to 130,000lbs
 
Good, because I may need help when I get to 3 syllables.


In other news, we slept with the windows open. That damned rooster across the way is getting a jump on Dawn.

I'm here to help you with your vocabulary. That's a FIVE syllable word! 😅🤣😅
 
I had a Facebook argument when someone said that anyone going less than the speed limit was a dangerous driver.....whaaat???

I reminded them that that is not the law that is the highest or max speed limit for that road but the law says safe and prudent and if safe and prudent is 20 miles an hour that is how fast you should go. It digressed into me being fat and stupid and old, and my response to that was all true and a better driver than you.... they were mad
Get it, girl! Fierce! 😅😅
