Country Frank’s Lucky Star Picture!

photo.JPG, a photo by susanfxtrt on Flickr. Meet Lucky Star! He's my Lucky Star day to have him as my 2012 project! He's fantastically naturally gaited, confident and left brained. He's light. He has been started with no problem at all. He's been unemployed as a pasture horse until 11/20/11 when he came home to live in my pasture. I plan to develop him and ride him at the Missouri World Celebration in Ava, Mo in September 2012. Then he just might be for sale. He is owned by Teresa…

Country Frank’s Lucky Star

There's a certain person in my world who has populated my life with horses and dogs.  Yep.  I go to Teresa Osborn's home and I come home with a horse. She hasn't done that too me in a while and I thought I was done with that.

Cooking with Master Chef Journey One

There are more food in the fridge and freezer than I can comprehend...plus pizza.…

Sage Baby Progress

Tests came back to show that Sage has a slight staph infection where the sperm and the egg would meet.  We missed the heat cycle to treat her. Today, we (the vet) gave Sage a shot to bring her into heat.  For us women, that would be like  shot to start our menstruel cycle, something no man would be brave enough to do. Can you imagine a human man taking a syringe, plunging into his wife's arm while saying, "Honey, I enjoy so much when you are going thru your…

Just Every Day Chat

About Sage:  The lab report came back about Sage. She has mild staph infection inside where the egg meets the sperm. We're about a week or so past when she was to come into heat  (ovulation).  Tomorrow morning the vet is going to give her a shot which will cause her to come into heat. Then we will treat her with medicine to cure the staph infection.  Her next regular heat (three weeks from now) is when we will try the real deal and let her have her way with…
