Here I am with Sassy days after she was born 29 years ago in FL, and then again a couple years ago when we lived in Seattle. I am so grateful that we are celebrating with her today after she nearly died this winter. So many vets told us it was just her time to go, she’s old and lived a good life. We learned God determines when it is our time, not medicine. We have hope Sassy will be The Producer’s trusted steed someday too (She sits on Sassy now and says “bye” and waves me off like, “leave us alone I got this”) . HUGE thank you to everyone who helped us along the way. To celebrate, I’m going to try a livestream birthday party on our Off Gridish channel so you can join us and ask any Sassy question you’ve ever wanted to ask - we are planning for 3P PST - I’ll post the link here! 🎂 🧁 🐴 🎉 🥕 🍎
Raise your hand if you’re the farm husband of a “low maintenance” woman who has a to-do list for you longer than Santa’s. 👋 We thank you for your service. Now get back to work on that fence.
I woke up Sunday to find that my trusty stead of 32 (almost 33) years, Sassy, had a swollen cheek with a rather hard lump. Our vet, Dr Julia Simonson, came to examine her and I thought it would be interesting for folks to hear it “right from the horse’s mouth.” Examining a horse’s mouth without sedation can be tricky but thankfully Sassy is rather tame because I harassed her so much as a kid. 🤣 We saw what appears to be an ulcer or abscess likely from some kind of cut or foreign object. No signs of infection and it is slowly healing itself. I really appreciate having a veterinarian who supports the “monitor and support nutritionally” approach, and does not intervene pharmaceutically unless she believes it’s truly medically necessary. It’s very difficult to find a vet (or a human doctor frankly) these days with this mindset.
I hate to admit this but we just took down our Christmas tree a few days ago, weeks after our neighbors had decorations up for Valentine’s Day. I would blame it on the farm but we have always been late getting rid of our tree. I think our record is early March. At least this year we have a free tree removal service!

I remember when so-called conservatives were adamantly against the "Fairness Doctrine". Hypocrisy never ends. Cries for fairness doctrine is always a clear sign of who knows they have lost support.
I don't support any side.
