She Who Loves To Write

Dec. 27, 2007

And now for some sad news.

Alright, now this time I have a good reason for not blogging in so long. My horse died and I've been kinda getting over that. The vet said she got hypothermia. He also said that a lot of animals get it this time of year. I was so sad. To top it all off, she was thin because I hadn't been feeding her enough (I wasn't sure just how much I needed to be feeding her). I had upped her feed the week before she died, but it was too little too late I guess. I can't help but wonder though if she didn't have something wrong with her. She had lost a lot of weight in just a matter of days. This was after I started feeding her more. So I don't know. I just know that I miss her.

I'm doing better now. I'm sure most of that is thanks to the prayers of friends. I don't think we'll be getting another horse for a while though. I'm not sure we're cut out for horses anyway. I don't really think I am. I was a city girl until just a few years ago and am still getting used to "country life". We don't have any outside animals (other than a cat) but we have a pretty big place and it's a bit of a chore to keep it up. And there's my dad's shop. It's still in the building process and we spend almost every weekend up there working on it. My dad's going to build, paint and work on cars in it some day. That way he can live out his dream and work at home. Yay! So yeah. Maybe I'm just not meant to have a horse. But I still loved Cassie. She was an awesome horse.

I don't have much more for now. I just thought that I'd post about what's been going on around here, sad as it is. And also I would appreciate all your prayers at this time. I'm having a bit of a struggle right now with some stuff and prayers are always welcome. Thanks to you all! And I hope you all had a great Christmas!

Aww! That is so sad... I'm sorry that your horse died..

RYC: No problem about the commenting. I have a ton of people who come to my blog and don't comment me. Lol.

I tried to put some humor in that blog because it really is a dry subject that isn't terribly interesting.

Good point, many people either obsess about it or hide from it. Why can't they just be in the middle?

Sorry about your horse, it is always very sad to lose a beloved pet.
Have a nice Monday,

I heard about your horse from Jocelyn when she died. I am so sorry. If Blondie (my dog) or Daisy (my rabbit) died, I don't know what I would do. Or if one of our goats died, I'm not sure I could handle it. It would be so different without anyone of them.

I bet you are going through a hard time. I just want you to know, I am praying for you :) I will continue praying for you too. We have two horses, if you want one. :) ha ha. I'm sure Amanda would gladly give you one! :)

I posted, if you have time to stop by! It was so nice to have a comment from you!

Have a lovely and blessed day!
Love,
Rachel
