I'm sitting here watching Tombstone (one of my very favorite movies) on our new beautiful 52 inch TV thinking I didn't know TV could be this great. I've also been watching Cali run around the living room panting and tossing her bed and toys around. She is quite possibly the cutest dog in the whole wide world. I loved my last dog a lot, but this one is so super cute and has the best personality. She's got tons of energy, though and can be an idiot sometimes. Hey... I don't have kids yet... so I am blogging about my dog..... etc.
My father-in-law and I put my mare, Echo, out with my husband's stallion, Sampson, yesterday. I really don't know what was thinking. I guess I'm hoping for a buckskin paint even though I need another horse like I need a whole in my head. Echo is a sharp looking black and white but she doesn't have any muscle so I'm hoping Sampson will add that to a nice baby. And, with Sampson's palomino color I'm REALLY hoping for a buckskin paint. I don't know if she will even take. Sampson bred her last year and if she had foaled it would have been the first baby of the year (Cody would have been green with envy as I don't even care when it would have been born because I don't want to show my baby in halter but he does) but Echo didn't take. So now that all Cody's mares and his dad's mares have been bred already for early babies next year I got a wild hair and we threw Echo out with Sampson. Cody doesn't know yet. He's funny about it, too, because he didn't really want me to do it last time we talked. I don't know why - I guess he wanted me to be able to show it and the bigger they are the better chance you have of winning or something to that extent. But, as I said, I don't CARE to show it. I just want a nice paint baby. I suppose if I get one I want to sell I'll have to sell one of my minis. Or, maybe by then Cody will be making enough money that I can keep everyone. We shall see.
So, I'm HOPING, PRAYING, etc that there is the slightest chance I could be pregnant. We timed it right around ovulation this month and I've been SO tired the past week so I'm hoping that means there's a possibility. OR... it just could be that I'm tired. :( I guess I'll find out in a couple weeks when I'm supposed to start my... ya know.... I'm so ready to be pregnant. I've been praying for it, too. Whatever happens is God's plan, I know, I just pray a baby is in his plan for us.
Well, all for now. I don't even know if this made sense as I'm still watching Tombstone. The timer is going off on my marinating pork that's going in the oven, so I had better get cookin'.
