Sunday morning

  ......and I love the sound of the rain on my metal roof! It's been almost a month since we've had rain. It rained yesterday all around us for hours and finally we got .14". Big whoop! It rained several hours at my friend's house and probably my sister's. It sounds like we'll get a little bit more out of what's coming down now.

  We bought a horse yesterday. I know, I know, we have so many...but it was the right thing to do for us. He's mature and just perfect. I feel bad about him right now as he has no protection from the storm but the others have been in that same boat. He probably has too some time in his life. The little girl that he belonged to is ready for a much faster one. He wouldn't go fast enough. Likes to walk. Buck seems to be the only one really bothered by him. Maybe he's just glad there will be someone he can boss around besides Betty. I will get pictures of him today and post soon. I just checked outside and everyone is fine. In their correct pastures etc. and munching away.

  Aiden has been sick this week. Brenda needed some rest but a few days ago Aiden got sick. She ended up in the ER yesterday with him. He's getting better but needed some hydration. IV and some meds for his nausea. He didn't even want to try a Popsicle! Poor little guy. I didn't see them all week! I missed having them here actually. Sounds like I may not get to see them much - the kids have realized it might be too much for Brenda between the 5 screwed up discs in her back and all the rest.

  Almost the end of the day and I didn't get a lot done. Worked on the quilt awhile in between housework and other stuff. Had a diamond day.
