V & H Vendredi

 

Hotesse: It's been a while since we had a proper horsey post, so here we are today! The most excitement we had recently was the delayed visit by the farrier a week ago. Over the years, I only ever saw the farrier very rarely, and it was only ever done it stocks. But our farrier here does not use stocks so, I have had to learn to give my feet, which is a challenge for an arthritic old lady like me.

My daughter Violette was done before me, and #1 took this rather nice pic of the two of us:

And here was The Big V, waiting his turn with Ms. C:

Last to go was my youngest daughter, Heloise:

Nothing much else going on. #1 hasn't been able to come as often as usual because of her eye surgeries. But I also wanted to tell you that I have a new medication for my arthritis, thanks to a Percheron breeder friend of #1's in Germany. It is much cheaper than what I was getting at first and seems to be working well! That is something to be really thankful for!

Here are a couple more photos of me, going up to #1 for treats. As you can see, Ms. C lets me roam free around the yard, because she knows I won't do anything silly:

And that young "cousin" of mine, Lily, always comes to have a chat!

Keep well, everyone, and take good care!
