Mornings...and whatnot.
We still have frost on some mornings which can produce fog and make things look magical.

I had to separate the two the other day as the pony thought it would be fun to chase Sven and bite him on the butt.
Sven ran like the dickens and jumped through the hot wires to escape. Sven can't stand to be too far from the pony so he just grazed in the open lane until I caught him.
Sitting on the bucket in the back pasture is calming. I can listen to the birds wake up and watch the day lighten while sipping coffee.

morning songs.
I've seen Tom Turkeys displaying their feathers and strutting around in the meadow. They are so awkward looking yet so determined!
One morning before it was light, I surprised this group of deer.
This week has been a whirlwind of activity. I had something going on every single day!
The best part-sss of this week have been that the new young Primary Care doctor for Rich is amazing. She actually listened to him and his concerns. She didn't tell him to 'buck up and get over it' like some other doctor had told him. She asked him if he had a goal for this summer. She asking for a referral for PT with Pulmonary Therapy. He is actually looking forward to going. Best part? She is local and we don't have to travel 2 hours to see her!
His goals are fairly simple. He would like to be able to walk out to the shed and get on his riding mower and mow the yard in bits.
The change in his attitude of seeing a doctor that actually showed empathy and CARING improved his mental well being.
Other great things.
Great hike with friend Mr. Bill. [more on that later]
Young friend Molly is back in town! I have a mule riding partner again! And Rich has a young gal who visits often to talk horses!
More on Molly from 2019 in Meet Molly.
Happy Mother's Day tomorrow to all moms. The weather looks like it is finally changing so I'll be out and about enjoying it.

That is good news all around! So happy that Rich has a Dr that listens! I remember Molly...she will brighten both of you guys days. Happy Mother's Day to you Val:)
ReplyDeleteNo kidding! It made such a huge difference this week!
DeleteYour post makes me happy! What a great week! Amazing how someone expressing empathy can improve someone's wellbeing. I am so glad she is there for you. Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mom's Day to you also.
DeleteI am so glad the primary doctor actually cares. I have lost my doctor as he moved away. He was young but had a few years experience. Saved my life diagnosing major things wrong with me and referring to specialists. The pony sounds like it is grumpy. We are getting very hot this next week so you too should warm up too.
ReplyDeleteAww thanks! I think the pony was doing pony play time, but the goat was having none of it!
DeleteThanks for stopping in!
