Helen Leaves

Helen's new family arrived yesterday afternoon, They were settled in the apartment then I headed over to mom's to meet with Diane, Ruth and Karin. The strategy for the next few days of mom's care was gone over while she was deep in sleep. The move home was exhausting for her. Ruth decided she needed to wake her up by 5:30pm for dinner. Diane brought over fresh fruit and vegetables while Ruth heated up a bowl of home made chicken soup.

It is good to have her home! Ruth stayed the evening, Karin is spending the night and Ruth is coming back today. They are both physical terrorists or is that physical therapists and will teach the rest of us what we need to encourage mom to do.
Mike helped move a bale in for Jenis' paddock last night and the skid steer is coming home today which will really cut my work load. No more hauling wheelbarrows of hay to the paddocks.
Helen's family wanted to leave for Colorado around 6:00am. We waited to load her until they were ready to go. She loaded without drama and is now on her way to the mountains of Colorado.

  1. Helen... the blind mare? Can you tell us more as to where she has gone? Is she a pasture mate or what? I'm really curious. Or direct me to a blog post.
