CraftyRider: Day 6

Yesterday had many happy moments, as my days often do. A friend took me to get organic produce. I got some portabella mushrooms. I have never used them before, will find out what to do with them. The highlight (and most expensive) was the organic strawberries. As soon as I got back I whipped up some heavy cream, cleaned the strawberries, got out the end of the homemade chocolate icecream and gingerbread and made lunch...strawberries, chocolate icecream, whipped cream sweetened with maple syrup, and a side of gingerbread.

The animals are all doing fine. The sick goat kid is still with us, I hope the vet can figure out her problem on Monday. She eats, doesn't have poop problems or fever or discharge, but is bloated and weak. (Been dewormed with 2 dewormers, don't think worms are her problem) Most likely liver issues. I hope she can get over it and thrive. She was the one I though would not make it when she was born (the tiny white one). But is still trying to grow up and be a goat.

The kids came for their lesson with Lisa today. I am learning a lot from having 2 excellent riding teachers come to teach my more experienced riders. They are both well educated teachers and teach the same skills using different words and exercises. They also notice different things because they look at the world with different eyes.

Cooper wants breakfast. He is still looking for his own home. I feel bad we can't take all who need a safe place, but I have problems giving those we have the individual attention they need.
