Here are some pictures of Sassy at a brighter time - helping out with our engagement photos. As many of you know, another vet came out Wednesday to run some tests on Sassy. While the scans were non-diagnostic, Sassy appears to be suffering from laminitis. Her condition worsened significantly on Monday but thankfully she appears to have stabilized and today was a tiny bit better. I was told Wednesday that she may only have a 10% chance of recovering at this point, but that’s enough for me. This condition often is associated with sugar in the diet so I have overhauled Sassy's feed. She is now getting special herbal tonics from Australia and medicine for Cushing's disease. We are still waiting for the results of a blood test taken Wednesday as well. Sassy is in pain but she is still eating and drinking, perky as ever, and trying to break out of the new stall we built to keep her resting. The last week has been a total whirlwind as I try to nurse her back to health while working and parenting. If we can get Sassy to hold up her leg long enough, we will attempt a special shoe. Sassy was born when I was 11-years old and has given 29 years of carrying my weight and now I am returning the favor. Some of you have asked about donating to help with Sassy's medical bills so I set up a GoFundMe. Please know, however, that if you're supporting me here you're helping too. I am so grateful for each of you - this has been a tough year but we will endure and persevere together. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-sassy-get-back-on-her-hooves?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1
Spotted “Daddy” and “Mommy” cow over at the neighbor’s again today. Hot wire is in the near future but until then, we’re grateful for patient neighbors and cows who will at least return when called for dinner.
Lily and I had dreamed up a jam business recently after making some with our friend’s roselle - the “Florida cranberry”. Unfortunately after our first batch, his whole row of bushes died in this week’s frost. So, I will have to go back to selling fermented cod liver / butter oil! 🤣(Link below)

I truly must say, it is amazing to see Megyn Marie Kelly. Go from the woman who hit Donald John Trump with the most embarrassing debate question of his 2016 campaign. To in her autobiography "Settle for More". Claiming that the very odd illness she suffered after that was basically a coincidence. She did mention how someone she never knew pressed her to take the coffee that I personally feel was a direct poisoning. And she claimed other people got sick too. Well, I'm not buying her claim of a coincidence. She after that never went hard against Donald John Trump again. An apparent message was sent in my opinion. She had her career falter because of some of her race baiting. And continued to run the MAGAville track enough to make a comeback. BUT NOW!!! She's not only defending Donald John Trump, she's providing cover for Jeffery Edward Epstein. A woman, covering for ped-s. It's sick, it's shameful, it's horrific, and I hope she repents and seeks to follow Jesus Christ in truth...
