......You might just get it. My pond is about full now. My horse, Pretty Boy, and I were standing on the side of it this morning discussing how nice and full of rain water it is. We didn't go into it. No there was no reason to get into the pond to get wet. We are already all wet from two or three days of rain. It rained at night too my horse tells me. It has for the most part been a wonderful beneficial rain. Gentle enough to soak in but enough to fill our pond pretty much.
My horse's hurt hoof is looking pretty good these days too. Looks to me like it is growing out nicely. That human girl does something different to it on different days. Sometimes he is a little contrary with her but she is very good at holding her ground. She tells him no no when he tries to take his foot away from her. This morning she told him 'If you will just be patient for a moment I will be done with you'. He held very still except for his mouth. He kept eating his feed. He is actually quite talented at eating standing on three legs. I am such a big girl I am not so sure I would be able to do that. I prefer to have someone brushing me when I am being made to stand on three legs. I supposed I could stand on three legs and eat at the same time but being as curious as I am I want to be able to see what some
human is doing without being distracted by eating. I wouldn't hurt anyone, not on purpose anyway, but I don't know if I could be as nice as my horse, the Pretty Boy, is. I suppose since he got injured maybe almost two years ago he is used to the humans doing things to him and is happy that it is just his hoof that is not completely healed. He can walk and trot and even run if he wants to and he can eat so what more could a horse want. He says he is just happy to be here. Maybe we should all try to keep that attitude. Maybe we should all Just be Happy to be Here.
