Spring?

I'm wondering if Spring will ever come... probably with a bang & it'll be hotter than heck all Summer!!! Oh I can't wait!!

I lunged QT on Thursday, she was real good, then Gotfried came over to put shoes on her. Weather has been crap ever since... I still have frozen ice jam in my arena in front of Dox stall... geez...

Now gotta go get hay tomorrow so I will be sure to have some until 1st cut. Holy crap $250/ton... One guy quoted $9/bale that worked out to $265/ton. There is hay in Bridesville but it's either dusty/rocky or the stuff I called about from the bargain hunter has stink weed in it. Checked out stink weed & horses can colic or abort foals so that is out of the question. After listensing for almost an hour about how great it is then last thing - oh it has stink weed in it... Never heard of it so i googled it. Always get burned on buying hay this time of the year. If the idiot that sold me all my winters hay could do a better job on his hay - close to a ton of open hay bales :~( & the other hay guy that promised me 2 ton in the Spring but now won't sell any...

Jem is in season starting today so Dox wil be a happy boy in a few days....lol.... finaly gets to earn some keep...lol... I am anxious to ride him some more, he was doing so well, no stiff shoulder anymore... yeah.... actualy both Jem & QT are peeing through the fence at him... he's happy...

Hoping someone buys Jem. New sheep next door today... she was scared to death when I fed tonight. She can't seem to get over the sheep & chickens next door. QT is in with her & QT was like wth is going on... trying to be good & stay out of her way... She has really turned into a sweet mare.

Just a little over 2 months until babies are due. Sapphire & Belle are 1 week apart... going to be a busy week if they are both close. June babies are late but so much more enjoyable on a warm Summers eve, rather than freezing your but off in February out in the barn at 2 am... Thank God we have advanced in technology enough that we have cameras in the barn now. Many nights spent in the barn on my cot freezing...

Well I better sign off - have to be in K to get hay at 9:30 am :~(
