The farriers took time to come up to the porch and visit with Rich for a while. We've worked with these guys for quite a few years. Danny has assisted his dad ever since he could hold a hoof rasp.
Both guys do custom blacksmith work and farrier at the same time. Often our veterinarian refers hoof and leg problems to these guys because they are so knowledgeable.
I am behind on removing burrs from the mules' tails this year. Sunshine sports a burr tail. I'll get to it sooner than later. Show Sheen and Hair conditioner work really quite well. It takes a lot of time though.
My new hat. This is safer than a Harris/Walz hat to wear in my area. It takes a moment or few to figure out what it says.
I think I finally turned a corner. I spoke to a nurse and she recommended taking probiotics and avoiding acidic foods for a while. I had probiotics and I made bland food for myself for supper.
This morning was the first time since September 1st that I didn't wake up with nausea and a splitting headache. I am crossing my fingers on this and hope it continues.
One day at a time.

The hay looks beautiful! So glad you are starting to feel better and hope you stay that way. I know that eating too many tomatoes really messed up my stomach. Acid and old age don't go together very well. Your new hat is beautiful!!!!! Lori
I'm so glad you got some advice that might help. I have been worried about you!
Both Sue and I were eating our share of probiotic yogurt this tome last year.
Hope you feel better soon, you have had a busy week.
Yes! I have done that in the past but can't handle yogurt any more. I did love it though!
I just have to think a lot like you about what I am eating. Thanks!
Yep. The hardest thing is to admit you need help.
The rest of the week is going to be quiet with some nice little walks in the morning. I think. :)
Great news that you are feeling better. It feels good to have the winter supply of hay.
Love the hat and hope I can find one or two.
Hope your less spicy diet helps you feel lots better.
Hugs!
You have a nice storage area & hay guy. Glad you called and are on the mend. Albeit slowly. Take 'er easy!
I have yet to track down a good farrier in this area- the guy I have been using does a basic trim that I could do myself and doesn't address the issues that Gussie needs done. (quarter cracks).
Nice hay, love having a barn full of nice smelling hay.
It should last until next August. I do this once a year. It feels nice to have hay in the shed.
Thanks!
Yes, finding a good and consistent farrier is like winning the jack pot. I've always had good quality hay from this guy. Hubby wanted to shop around and since I am the one who has to do it now, I just call and get my hay once a year from the same fella.
