Dammit

I’m leaving this here as I have run out of things to say today.

Everyone is going along ok except for Pepper who went off her front leg last night, the same day I had cancelled her x-ray appointment at the vets because she was bouncing around so well.  On Monday, I will make another one and not talk myself out of taking her.  Dammit.  My fault, I guess for thinking she was fine. She’s very obviously not.  It’s like she knew.

I let the duck family out today and three hoodies (hooded crows) came and sat beside the duck-run so I quickly shut the door again.  Again, dammit.  I really want them to start going out but it is not going to happen for a bit.  The unceasing wind with occasionaly vicious rain showers are not helping.  Tomorrow is meant to be calmer.  At least I can watch them from my shed where I am working every hour God sends – transcribing and stabbing in equal measures.

I am not feeling the love for much today.  Sorry.

    We all have days like this – hoping life is better for you tomorrow. Taking Pepper for a look-see sounds like a good idea, even if she appears perfectly fine. You’ll rest easier at the very least.

    Difficult to feel love out in those weather conditions. What are the chances Pepper is consistently messing with you?
    The arrangement and colors in that last photo framed by the window, are beautiful and conveys the promise of the days of “feeling love” once again. Peace to you Frances.

    I am sorry you’re not having a great day today and I can understand your frustrations two degree. However nobody is psychic and you thought your little horse pepper was doing fine horses very often do that I sometimes wonder if they don’t know when the vet has been called so that they can act better temporarily. So no problem at all You’re doing the right thing as you always do.

    And as for the ducklings and ducks you did the right thing there too so again no problem.

    I do hope your Wednesday down I hope you have a nice glass of wine or something nice to eat and tomorrow will be a brighter day for you and for all your four-legged friends.
