Welcome Home to Borderlands

Life has changed a lot in the last week. I'm not sure how we will return to our normal life or if this will be our normal. Life with a herd of 14 horses along with three small kids, and both Mike and I working has been crazy. It's a bit overwhelming in our house these days trying to keep everyone occupied and still learning.


Because everyone is online, we are trying to be online a bit more to help combat the boredom that some might be dealing with. We are trying to do a Welcome Home to Borderlands series so you can meet each one of the horses with a Live video and an additional post with a bit more personal information about the horse. Last night we started off with Dude.


We are also going to try doing a very short reading program, Welcome Home to Borderlands Reading. It'll only be a few minutes long and it'll be crazy and chaotic like our life. If you see me in pjs, don't laugh. You'll also see hampers full of clothes, my kids, books, toys, and an assortment of who knows what else. But that's what our Home is like and we want you to feel just as Home as we do! W want to help even just a little with spreading some joy during the day. We'll be doing our reading program every day at 11am. If I'm not online right away, don't worry, we'll be online but I'm running late (as normal).


I'll try to do nightly checkins as well. They will probably be back to back with the Live videos of each horse but at least then you can see all the horses instead of just one of the horses. It'll all depend on how long the battery lasts on my phone.


We hope you stick around and even share our posts. Hopefully we can spread some joy and lighten the mood online with our senior horses. Please share.


The Reading Program will be every day this week at 11am. The nightly Facebook Lives will be sometime in the evening but I can't guarantee the exact time. Some time after 5pm. And then we'll post some additional pictures of that horse (preferably summer photos so you can actually see green!) If my battery lasts, we'll also do a nightly check in video just to ramble and show everyone off. It'll be after the Live with Facebook post. Again, I can't tell you exactly when we'll go Live but at least you can always go back afterwards and watch them.


Leave comments and/or suggestions on what you want to see! We are always looking for more ideas to help! And if you have fundraiser ideas, please let us know! Send us a Facebook message or email us at borderlandshorsesanctuary@yahoo.com


Hope to see you online!
