Wiped Out

Tired, worn, whipped, however you want to put it... That's where I'm at right now. We're gearing up for a new school year just like everyone else, just finished getting Riana's school supplies actually. Also trying to study Korean, reading, writing, and the finer points of etiquette. I have my dog training classes on the weekends, plus volunteering at a local shelter training some of the dogs there. Taking care of the goats, horses, alpacas, and other creatures of the farm and home take up most of my mornings, and then going to the hospital for the rest of the day... I don't see the sun much. I miss the sun. I miss riding in trail trials and going out with the family. I miss being able to go to a goat show or just take a trip out for a break. I just plain miss my family, no matter how annoying they can be. They are mine after all. ;) Any free time I do get is rapidly filled up with appointments for clients, putting up hay, or the vicissitudes of life.

Soooooo... Hopefully two horses will be leaving this coming month for warmer climes which will cut the amount of time I have to spend training them, and give me more time to work with the three that are left, one I need to start under saddle. I'll be listing several goats for sale soon to open up time there. I need to open up some space in the barns for the youngstock we've kept. I have a few redundant lines out there that I can pare back.

A quick update

So vacation was great, but short... DSL is wonderful of course... First field of second cut is in! Only 15 more acres to go. Lots for sale, but several aren't posted since my main computer is kinda blowed up right now.

Selling Pharoah, Black arabian stallion, 15 h, AHA registered. Gentle, gentle, gentle. My main trail buddy, but I haven't had time to ride since I went back to work. Now that I'm training a couple others, he's just standing around hoping for hugs.

Selling several goats... Some kids, some adults... plenty to choose from.

Selling a large colony of Madagascar Hissing Roaches, many ages/sized roaches. Breeding like gangbusters and my lizards prefer fuzzy mice.

Selling a Like New condition copy of Dr. Mary Smith's "Goat Medicine" Great text to have on hand if you have goats. It IS a vet text, but very useful even for the layperson.

Garden is growing like a weed... wait, most of that IS a weed... But the Sisters and the sunflowers are doing great in the main plot, and since we moved the tomatoes out into the middle of the yard they're doing great.

DSL is awesome!

But then Anything is better than Dialup. Hopefully this means I can get updates online much faster and with fewer problems. I'll be trying it tonight when I get home from work. I didn't get to try it earlier as they just finished installing it before I left for work.

I start my externship for my dog training certification soon. I've contacted my instructor and should start soon. I also will be doing some volunteer training at a local shelter. Right now I'm looking at Ontario County humane society. They get a lot of pit and pit mixes there and many of them need some additional training. I like large dogs and they tend to be harder to place than your average pomeranian.

The storms the other day was beautiful. Did you catch the rainbows?
