Runnin' Ragged

I feel like I'm going into warp speed trying to get everything done. Another busy night.

Yesterday was Day Four of Sam's ulcer treatment. He whinnied which was good but barely touched his grain. He did dive into his alfalfa. Tonight, we'll see how things go. I'm afraid he's losing weight... and fast.

The farrier is coming out tonight to try it again with Rabbit. That old mare knows how to work the system. I haven't done much with her to get her over her naughty habit. I was supposed to work with her for a week or so (whoops).

If Rabbit behaves, we'll work on her. Then there's Skippy. We're also going to try Rain and Zeke. They are both getting a little wonky. Hopefully Zeke won't be spooky. He was last time. I want to get Ivan in but he's really naughty so I need to start working with him, along with Chaos and Maverick. So many horses, so little time.

While the farrier is here, I'll try to see how much alfalfa I can stuff into Sam. I'm really worried about him. Tonight will be day five of ulcer treatments. I hope they finally start working. I think they are but it's a slow process. I wish I would have caught it sooner.

I won't be arond much the rest of the week so no pictures unless I go through the archive. With Mike down with a cold and Sam down with a flareup of ulcers I feel like I'm running ragged to get everything done. There's a saddle club meeting tomorrow where I get to try and schedule some time for group riding/showmanship lessons. I plan on taking either Maverick or Chaos to the lessons. What better way to promote rescue than use a rescue horse! Hopefully by this weekend I'll be able to take a breath and enjoy the horses once again (and get current pics)
