Ready to Ride

Good Evenin'

And, ya, another peach! A few high clouds, but mostly, just a pretty day.

Got my Christmas books in the mail and the one for my friend, did all her "shopping" at Grateful Herd Mgmt.; international priority to London, England. (Now it's an international best seller; well, my best seller anyway.)

And, got my Christmas bath early, where I got my pre-op exam, tomorrow; top to bottom, clean cloths and socks. Jimminy, I might even have ta take two this month, with the surgery in two weeks! But, god willin', we'll survive; warm as it's been, I suppose it ain't entirely unreasonable. And, if the mild weather holds, I can likely get some more cloths clean, 'fore the last batch freezes in the bucket.

Made a point, get my prayer time in this afternoon, so's I can hit the rack early; get my chores done, the ponies tucked in for the day, eat dress and pack what I'll need, I'm like to get up around four. I do love my quiet life, but even goin' to town, has it's lessons and reminders; inspiration of it's own sort, I suppose. But, thank goodness, it's only two or three times a year.

Hope y'all are happy and well; I'll keep you appraised a developments.

Best,

P.S. Checked on the Wedo dog; alive and well, though he did lose his "house privileges", for the summer porch which has easier access to the outdoors. I checked to see if he was a burden and I should pick him up this trip, difficult as that woulda been, but it seems, all is well and next visit is fine. Hope my friend don't get attached; he does have some shoes to fill up here!
