The waiting game

It's been a quiet week, with lovely warm weather; a little snow, a little rain, but pretty nice over all.
There is that spring feeling in the air, even though there is snow; it's melting pretty fast.
Waiting for spring is tough at this time of year.
 The horses all got their feet trimmed on Monday; Gussie was the fidgetiest but they were all good. I was proud of Rio, he did really well. They are all starting to shed now. Rio was first, he started shedding over 2 weeks ago.
Got to go to Cranbrook tomorrow- our trip last week was cancelled because of the dump of snow. I'll get my ring that I got for Christmas resized, and meet up with Janice to do some girly stuff while Ted goes to do guy stuff. He has started working at home now, doing his repair business, although I have been his main customer so far: he built the hitch for my truck including re-wiring it, and then the heater core went so he just replaced that. Handy guy, my husband!
I got some news a couple of days ago that I'm just bustin' to share....
News? What news? Is it about me?
No Beamer, it isn't about you.
Aw c'mon! tell us please! Is it about us?
No girls, it isn't about you.
But it is about a horse. And you all are going to have to wait for a couple more days.
