...did it again?
Actually, it was Darling who did it. And sold her dear, beloved Quiet Storm. She's been crying ever since, wishing she hadn't, but it's a done deal now.
Her new girl is named Firecracker; we adopted her while at the Kiger adoption in Burns, OR, last month. She's three, was bred but aborted last week.
We've had her home for about 3 1/2 weeks now. Gave her a week off with all our nasty weather and the abortion. Got back into the swing of things this weekend. She'll give to pressure and lead a little (paddock is a bit tight for much leading, really) and has recently allowed me to start touching her. I can rub up and down her neck from both sides and even worked down to her knees today. Didn't try to go any farther, I think she'd have let me but I wanted to stop while I was ahead

LOL, Kay! I'll take it in a nice way, and you're right. I love taking them on, getting them started and then finding them the right match. We took on a boy just Weds, but already have someone coming to see him, so I won't be spending much time with him. He's so parasite laden it's heart breaking, though. Very thin, being eaten alive from the inside

Thank you, ladies!
Alee, we were walking through the mall this weekend and she burst into tears and asked why she was so stupid. So hard being a mom when they're hurting so much. Quiet Storm in one of a kind and there's no replacing her. To tell the truth, I'm still crying, too. Hopefully this will work into a life lesson for Darling...perhaps she'll know not to let go of the perfect man later in life, eh?
Erica, I'm glad you enjoyed the photo blog!

She's beautiful, but I feel bad for Darling. I am sure she misses Quiet Storm.
