We're still moving but it's going to be a few days yet. Poor little gal, she just didn't believe me when I said things technical seem to break whenever I'm involved. After the weekend she's had - she's a believer now!

Remember when I said I'd done an interview on behalf of LiveOps? Well that article was published in Business Week last week! It's the August 20th issues and there's a blurp towards the end about me. I thought the reporter's angle was really interesting and enjoyed the story. You can still read it here if you're interested http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/07_34/b4047426.htm?chan=search

Jennifer came up today and we rode for several hours this morning. Oh my, is there anything better than just getting on your horse and taking off? I can't think of it, if there is. Silver did just wonderful for me and even gave a good gallop through the neighbor's pear orchard. The mornings are cool now and it was simply wonderful. Well, not for my butt. Holy toledo they don't make comfortable saddles do they?! I'm thinking of getting one of those huge gel pads to put on mine, although that would probably look rather stupid.

But the best news of late is that while we were having a pool party with Ed's sister's family we laid out plans for a Labor Day get-together out here at the farm. Ed's thrilled because he knows the house will get cleaned. And to make it even better, his youngest daughter stopped by his shop today and said all three of my stepkids are coming! With their kids!! Oh my goodness, family, in-laws, kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews - it's going to be just wonderful! I'll try to remember to take the lensecap off the camera and get some great pictures of everyone. I said I'll try but with my luck, you just never know what can go wrong. I do have some great pictures and stories to go along but I just hate to upload anything and cause any problems when we move.

Well keep checking in - hopefully we'll be moved in a couple more days.

What have I been tagged to do????

Laughing Orca Ranch said...

Just dicovered your Blog. We have a small ranch in the central mountains of New Mexico. We just bought our first horse this week and I completely agree with what you said about the joy of riding and being around horses.
It's been a dream of mine for over 40 years and it has finally come true.

Keep up the good job on your Blog. I'm looking forward to stopping back in now and then.
