Is She Tired Yet?

Melissa Sandfort

It’s quiet around here. And because I was going through withdrawal from the incessant watering and feeding I usually have to do, I decided to clean out the horse’s water tank and scoop the poo from inside the barn where they hang out in the shade. It was much more enjoyable this time because while the horses are gone, so are the flies.

Did I mention both of our girls are off meeting a new stud? That’s right, a stud of the same breed/color as Thelma and she must have liked him because she’s already pregnant again! Less than a month after having Surprise (the new filly), she’s with child again. I wonder if she’s tired yet.

Now if it would only rain so the grass would grow for her in our pasture while she’s gone.

So about April next year, we’ll have another new face in the pasture and I hope it’s as easy for her as it was with Surprise.

Until we walk again …

Editor’s Note: I hope to resume audio with my grandfather sometime soon. He’s been under the weather and didn’t think his voice was “blog quality”, so our interviews have taken a short hiatus. Hope to be back to AgWalking shortly!
