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
New year, new you. Why wear dead animal hide when you can wear a live animal? I’m coming for you 2026! Thanks to @growingbacktoeden for the regenerative organic ear wear.
I can’t believe how many people grocery shop on Christmas Eve - including Santa! We went after church and ran into him at the Publix bakery. Maybe no one left any cookies out for him - a sign of hard times or is it a healthier America? The older I get, the more I find myself slowing down through Christmas. The reason we were even grocery shopping on Christmas Eve is because that morning, I decided to relax in the sauna instead of racing off to do errands. What are we all rushing around for? Truly, what’s even crazier than talking about some old fat dude driving reindeer through the sky is saying that there is an actual God who intervened in this crazy drama we call life by coming to us in the flesh, born in a stinky barn so that through his message of radical love & faith, he could show us the way back home - and in death - tear the veil between Heaven & earth. Maybe we stay busy at Christmas because this message is almost too great to grasp. But it is the only message that really ...
The day after I walked up on “naked Santa” in the gym sauna, I returned to find one of his elves taking muscle man photos of himself. His back was to me so he didn’t see that I was watching as he took one after another after another muscle man picture. So, all of this begs the question: does anyone use the sauna for sweating anymore? Maybe I’m missing something as I’m new to gym saunas. I hope everyone has a fabulous Christmas, and for the new year, let’s make saunas for sweating again.
