Flynn Leaves

We awoke to rain. At 7:00 am Karin drove over to help move the horses inside as Flynn was getting picked up today and he needed to be dry for the trip. The owners weren't due until around noon so Karin just moved Indy and Envy into the paddock with Sangria and said she would be back before noon to bring him in and dry him up. By 8:15 am it was pouring rain and the owners sent a text that they had just crossed into Illinois. That meant they would be here by 11:00 am which meant Flynn had to come inside.

He was good though, came right to the gate and led like a champ inside. Of course he was given his grain. Since the weather was also turning cold Sangria and Serenity were also brought inside. Mark and I went to church this morning, my first time back. Wow have I missed being there. Mike Reiker had the service reading 1st Samuel 10 and some of 11, the anointing of Saul, then all of 17. The story of David and Goliath. Yes David only had to fight Goliath but Goliath had to fight David AND God.
Mark and I left after the first service. Karin had arrived around 10:00 am, had already met Flynn's owner and they were already gone by the time we made it home. We got home and I got Peoria on line so I could listen to the next service except I just couldn't seem to stay awake. I heard some of Greg's message so will have to wait until it is posted to hear the rest. Amazing how tiring it is the first time out.
This afternoon there was a big party going on at mom's house. The entire parking lot was full of cars. Seems like everyone ended up there because of the rain. Joan cooked so mom had a decent supper. Joan took the picture below of the bubble in mom's eye. That bubble is what is suppose to be holding the retina in place and that is why mom needs to lay on her right side for days, so the bubble goes to the top left. It is right where it belongs. Mom does think she is starting to have vision out of the eye. We are praying this works.

Mark split some logs into kindling for this coming week. The temperature is suppose to drop and I like a warm house. Mike moved the golf cart into the stock trailer. Mark is going to drop that off at Meister's tomorrow. Hopefully they can get the drive shaft and lights fixed. It would be nice to have that tool again.
Thankful for a husband that chops kindling to make it easy for me to start the wood burners. Thankful for LOTS of logs and really really thankful for the warmth they provide.
